explanation for non-techies**
Imagine you're filling out a long paper form, and instead of writing each piece of information manually, you have a magic pen that suggests the next word or phrase based on what you've already written. This is similar to what the new "smart paste" feature in Power Apps is doing for digital forms.
With smart paste, when you copy content from somewhere else, you can use a button or a keyboard shortcut to paste it into a form in Power Apps. But it doesn't just paste the text; it also provides smart suggestions for what might come next, based on the content you've copied. It's like having a helpful assistant who knows what you're likely to need next and offers it to you directly in the form you're working on.
This feature is designed to make filling out forms quicker and more efficient, much like how predictive text on your smartphone helps you type messages faster. The suggestions appear right in the form, and you can choose to accept them if they fit what you need or ignore them if they don't.
No action is required from you right now, but it's good to be aware that this feature will be available starting October 1, 2025. If you're interested in learning more about how it works, you can visit the provided link for additional information.
