Microsoft recently released the Copilot ‘Think Deeper’ functionality for free to users and it says that more time is spent “thinking” about a response to the question.
With the current rise of Copilot used for creating tables, power fx statements, model-driven app views and more, will this model further aid the role of Power App developers to create and manage their solutions?
Well, we tried testing the tool with the following prompt: ‘How do I filter active records in the user table with FetchXML for power automate?’ And the difference is quite distinctive!
Without the Think Deeper feature, Copilot responded in 1871 characters, providing one code example with a high-level overview of which actions to use in Power Automate.
Think Deeper responded in 7242 characters. YES! The feature stands true to its name!
Think Deeper provided a deeper context to the problem, outlining which attributes to select, what different status codes represent, added more comments to code and gave examples of when this would be used with different Power Automate actions. It even gave an expanded FetchXML query for finding users in different teams and advised on how to create your own queries using XrmToolBox, and provided an OData filter as an alternative.
However, its only drawback was that it took approximately 30 seconds to provide this response.
This is an exciting time to be a developer. Not only higher quality solutions are being provided, but in-depth explanations and alternatives can empower you to create higher quality solutions.
What are your thoughts on the new Think Deeper Copilot feature? How will you use this to achieve more with the Power Platform? We’d love to hear from you in the comments.👇🏼
