Canvas apps agentic coauthoring is now generally available

On the Microsoft Power Platform Blog, Tasha Scott wrote that canvas app coauthoring with agents is now generally available.

She stated that you can use AI agents to build and update canvas apps more quickly while connecting to more than 1,400 data sources and maintaining strong governance controls. 

Scott pointed out that agents can handle large, complicated, or repetitive tasks, while you remain in control of when and how AI is used. You can also switch to manual editing whenever you need greater precision or want to use fewer tokens.

Scott noted that Microsoft designed this feature to help app makers, not replace them. The agent can handle specific tasks, but you remain in control of building the app. In the post, Scott explained what canvas apps coauthoring with the agentic plugin can help you do.
