Microsoft announced an enhanced AI Builder at its virtual Ignite conference last year, including integrations with other services. More recently, the tech giant introduced the capability to leverage unattended robotic process automation (RPA) to Power Automate.
Microsoft announced today, as part of the feature release at Ignite 2022, changes to both the aforementioned services, as well as general availability for Managed Environments.
For starters, Power Automate will now allow users to describe what they want to automate via natural language to simplify this creation process more efficiently and accurately. A new option to simplify this creation process is in the preview. Alongside this, improvements once again focusing on RPA have been described as follows:
Improvements for Intelligent Document Processing have been made by AI Builder, which allows the service to have a feedback loop to retrain models for better accuracy if necessary. A new document type - Unstructured Docs - has been introduced as well, with the number of texts increasing to 164 and nine copies.
Managed Environments for Power Platform moves to general availability, allowing IT admins to manage low-code solutions at scale, with features like a weekly notifications digest, sharing limits, and a simple activation process via the admin center.
