Power Pages Home Action Center Is Generally Available – Stay Informed, Stay in Control

Managing multiple websites across environments can be overwhelming, especially when trying to stay on top of expiring sites, performance gaps, and security configurations. This is where the Action Center in Power Pages Home comes in. It offers a streamlined, centralized experience to help makers and site owners take timely and effective action across environments.

What is the Action Center?

The Action Center provides a centralized environment-level dashboard that surfaces critical insights and recommended actions directly in Power Pages Home. Whether it’s flagging expiring trial sites, outdated configurations, or pending security settings, the Action Center makes it easy to stay proactive, secure, and compliant.

How it Works

1. Access the Action Center

To access the Action Center, go to Power Pages Home, select your environment, and then click on ‘Action Center’ from the left pane.

2. Review Key Recommendations

The Action Center presents a prioritized list of insights to help you manage your environment effectively:

Trial Sites Expiring Soon: Highlights sites set to expire in the next 7 days so you can convert them to production if needed.

Inactive Sites: Flags websites that haven’t received traffic in the last 30 days. These might be outdated or unused.

CDN Not Enabled: Lists production websites without Content Delivery Network (CDN) enabled. Enabling CDN improves site performance and global delivery.

Web Application Firewall (WAF) Disabled: Surfaces sites that haven’t enabled the out-of-the-box WAF feature, a key protection against malicious web traffic.

SSL Certificates Expiring: Lists production sites with SSL certificates that are expired or will expire within 90 days. Renew them to ensure secure access.

Still on Bootstrap 3: Lists websites that are still using Bootstrap version 3. Migrate to the latest version for improved user experience and performance.

Still on Standard Data Model: Lists websites that are still using the standard data model. Migrate to the enhanced data model to ensure consistency, modernization, and access to new capabilities.

3. Take Action or Collaborate

Where possible, makers/site owners can act directly through Power Pages Admin Center or Design Studio. For actions that require elevated permissions, you can coordinate with tenant administrators.

4. Share Recommendations with Your Team

All recommendations can be shared using Microsoft Teams for collaborative triage. You can share the entire recommendation or select specific items to send to your teammate by name.

The shared Teams card includes a direct link to the recommendation, so it’s easy to follow up.

Why It Matters

With Power Pages scaling across organizations, it’s essential to provide operational observability, security readiness, and administrative agility all in one place.

The Action Center equips your teams to:

Detect and address risks early

Maintain operational efficiency

Keep environments secure and up to date
