🆕 Microsoft just rolled out a brand-new column type in SharePoint Lists and Libraries — and it's a game changer for end users.
The new Quick Steps Column lets you add clickable action buttons directly in your list rows. No JSON. No code. No hunting through menus.
In my latest blog post I walk through every action type:
📧 Draft an Email
💬 Start a Teams Chat
🧑💼 Set a Value
☑️ Send an Approval Request
⚙️ Execute a Flow
🤖 Ask SharePoint / Knowledge Agent
Plus my advanced technique for silently triggering a complex Power Automate flow with a single button click — no flow panel, no extra clicks.
If you've ever built JSON buttons in SharePoint lists, this is the no-code version of everything you used to have to do manually. 👇

🤯 Building an app with Copilot Studio is a whole different experience.
In Wednesday’s Power Hour, I built a Purchase Request app from a simple set of requirements + sample data.
No traditional app-building marathon. Just describe what you need and start building.

💡 The secret to great Cowork prompts:
🎯 Define the outcome, the inputs, the definition of done, the constraints, and the approval scope.
Vague = unpredictable.
Specific = magic 🪄
