- Full page apps – This preview feature, which requires you to enable the Saved views feature, allows Power Apps and third-party apps to be added as full-page experiences via the dashboard.
- Saved views – This preview feature enables saved views, which provide a significant enhancement to the personalization subsystem. This feature allows users to have multiple named sets of personalizations per page. You can also publish views to security roles.
- Optimized “is one of” filtering experience – This feature enables an optimized “is one of” filtering experience that makes it easier to enter multiple filter values, has a simpler mechanism to remove individual or all filter values, and has a more compact and intuitive visualization of filter values.
- Recommended fields – Users often need to add fields to a grid or page. This can be difficult with so many available fields. Instead of having to search through a large list, this feature enables the system to surface a set of recommended fields based on what other users most often add in similar scenarios.
- Sticky default actions in grids – This feature ensures that the default action in a grid is linked to a specific column in a grid, regardless of whether that column is moved or hidden.
