Message ID: MC1045803
We are announcing the Manage business rules for omnichannel agents feature for Power Apps. This feature provides the ability to build and configure rules for an IVR (Interactive Voice Response) agent within Power Apps. This feature will reach general availability on April 30, 2025.
How does this affect me?
This feature lets Power Apps administrators build and adjust IVR agent rules without modifying the agent’s logic. It enables quick responses to events like natural disasters, power outages, market changes, or policy updates. Administrators can use Dataverse tables to set dynamic values such as store locations, transfer numbers, broadcast messages, and business lines. These agent rules enhance agility, adapt IVR flow quickly, ensure continuity, and improve customer satisfaction, all while minimizing the need for extensive testing and deployment.
What do I need to do to prepare?

The recent announcement regarding the “Manage business rules for omnichannel agents” feature in Power Apps is certainly an exciting development for both administrators and users alike. With the ability to build and configure IVR agent rules without altering the underlying agent logic, it seems like a game-changer for managing customer interactions.
For administrators, this update means a significant reduction in the time and effort required to implement changes.

It’s like having a magic wand that allows you to adjust the IVR flow on the fly! The use of Dataverse tables to set dynamic values adds an extra layer of flexibility, allowing for real-time responses that can enhance customer satisfaction significantly.
Users, on the other hand, will likely notice smoother and more responsive interactions with IVR systems. This means less time navigating through menus and more time getting the help they need. Who doesn’t appreciate a seamless experience when trying to resolve an issue?
