As announced in this blog post, Microsoft is making some changes to the update schedules in April in response to COVID-19. The April 2020 release wave 1 updates will be generally available as mentioned in the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform release plans. More information is available in the product-specific FAQs. We will continue to release critical updates for Dynamics 365 applications and Power Platform, and are extending the deprecation timelines for some capabilities to give customers and partners additional time to make the transition. Microsoft is committed to supporting to our customers and partners in these uncertain times.

Business value
Dynamics 365 Marketing enables marketers to design visually rich marketing email messages that include personalized dynamic content. Careful testing is necessary, however, to account for variation in email client rendering and to confirm that dynamic content is accurate. Improved test-send functionality enables you to preview and test your messages before going into production, ensuring that your messages are consistent.
Feature details
- Upgraded error detection: Improved error checking for outgoing test messages.
- Test-send dynamic content: Test messages that contain fully rendered dynamic content (including dynamic field values, entity relationships, loops, and conditionals) based on a selected sample contact record.
