Yes, more governance topics would be great! Thank you! Thanks for the recap.

[caraziegel]

Definitely wanted ot understand more about that governance bit at the end.

As someone who only does SharePoint back end, I think a lot of these were less applicable - plus often new features dont show up in gov't cloud right away, of course - but the side bar for formulas - that looked exciting!

[bokinloch]

Ditto to more governance topics! Great summary, Lisa.

[georgemarkrt]

I would absolutely be interested in more governance content. In fact, it's what I'm most interested in! Thanks!

I'll be at the Vegas conference in a few weeks and looking forward to meeting you, saw you were one of the speakers! :)

[janurbanek]

still no way to organize flows ? :-D I mean how hard is it, give me folders or something :D

Hey Lisa, just a note 4 months later, I think Microsoft just sliently removed the release plan for "Use Power Fx to define column level rollup logic". Everyone still gonna stuck with legacy rollup column for another year to come!

during these time I have already transfer my 40x rollup columns to power automate fetchXML flow, and then transfer to SQL4CDS flow using plugin, i dont know why take them so long to plan for power fx rollup and then just to remove that plan...

[theadventuresofred]

Jeez MS have been busy. Q. Do you think that they're accelerating away too fast for most IT departments and especially companies to understand what functionality is actually available? The functionality has a fundamental and massive impact on the organisation.

Love the landscape for formulas. Thank you for the brack down😊

[frcelaya]

Loved the video! And if you can upload more governance content, that would be awesome.

[austinsaldanha]

Thank you, Lisa for your wonderful updates on D365 and Power Platform. :)

[wavey]

Love the video, thank you for the summary. Super useful and cant wait for some of these features. Especially the powerfx bar on the left and not the top for canvad apps. Would love to learn more about governance, inly so many web pages I can read before I lose my mind and look for a youtube video 😂

[kpr_drone]

Yeahhh you got the point, bloody roll-up column just sucks so much, so sad that the replacement is only coming on Jan - April

[vladimirkolev]

Lisa, thank you so much for this video. I was wondering is there anyway we can access this presentation? i could not find it online
