Effortless Visibility and Operational Insights for All with Monitor

Ever had a critical app crash at the worst possible moment, or a vital flow suddenly stop sending emails? With Monitor, you don’t have to wait for end-users to complain. Now generally available and enabled by default, no setup required, Monitor gives makers and admins real-time visibility, powerful metrics, and actionable recommendations to keep apps and automations running smoothly. From canvas and model-driven apps to cloud and desktop flows, Monitor helps you identify issues early, understand root causes, and optimize performance proactively—all from a single, integrated experience.

Power Platform Monitor enables operational insights for administrators across environments

Power Apps Monitor empowers makers with operational insights into the apps that they own or co-author

Monitor is available in the Power Platform admin center and in Power Apps at make.powerapps.com. This is a must-have business tool that will empower makers and administrators with deeper visibility into the operational health of their business-critical apps and automations.

Visibility that scales with your role

Monitor is designed to meet the needs of makers, Center of Excellence teams, Operations teams, and administrators. Makers can now access performance and health insights for the apps they own or co-author directly in make.powerapps.com. Additionally, people with administrative and governance responsibilities can use Monitor in the Power Platform admin center to monitor resources, enabling cross-tenant oversight.

This dual-surface approach ensures that everyone, from individual app builders to Center of Excellence teams, can identify issues faster, understand root causes, and take informed action.

What’s included

Monitor supports operational health metrics and recommendations for:

Canvas apps – available in both Power Apps and Power Platform Monitor

Model-driven apps – available in both surfaces

Cloud flows – available in Power Platform Monitor

Desktop flows – available in Power Platform Monitor

These insights go beyond raw telemetry. Monitor surfaces contextual recommendations, such as optimizing Power FX code to improve load time in canvas apps or identifying bottlenecks in flow execution, so you can improve performance and reliability without guesswork. We’re also excited to introduce configurable alerts, coming soon! These alerts will proactively monitor the health of your resources and notify you when the performance dips, so you can take action before issues escalate.

Built for action, not just observation

Monitor isn’t just about dashboards, it’s about driving outcomes. With this release, you can:

Quickly identify underperforming resources

Understand the impact of issues on users and business processes

Take guided steps to resolve problems before they escalate

And because Monitor is integrated into the tools you already use, there’s no need to switch contexts or learn a new interface.
