Power Platform March 2026: Admin Analytics Added

March 2026 Power Platform update adds admin analytics, inventory, Copilot integration in apps, modern control quality fixes, AI app generation, object-centric process mining, customizable process intelligence, and Power Pages agent API plus GitHub Copilot CLI plugin preview.

Microsoft released the March 2026 Power Platform feature update with admin, developer, and AI enhancements. The update centralizes licensing and inventory, advances process mining, and extends Copilot integrations.

Main feature/change and impact

The release makes licensing capacity reporting fully available in the Power Platform admin center. Administrators can now view over-capacity users and flow usage from a single console. Power Platform inventory reached general availability, offering tenant-wide visibility of cloud flows, Copilot Studio agent flows, and Workflows agent workflows. These changes reduce orphaned resources and improve compliance monitoring across environments.

Practical implications

Tenant admins must review the new Licensing → Power Automate → Usage reports to identify heavy consumers. Inventory GA requires governance updates to map flows and agents to owners. Process Mining introduces object-centric models for cross-entity analysis, so analysts should retrain pipelines to leverage multi-object relationships. Makers should test modern control migrations and validate app behavior after control property renames and OnChange refinements.
