Hi, I am trying to clear all my delegation warnings in order to future proof my app (ticketing app). I am struggling with one last gallery, is there anyway to make this delegable please?
Filter(ListName, User().Email in OtherPeople.Email)
OtherPeople is a multi person column
My data source is a sharepoint list and there is no chance of using dataverse due to company policies.
Any help much appreciated.
In a form customized from a SharePoint Online list, I have three buttons (First, Second, Third) where each button's OnSelect sets varVisibleField to the name of the button. The First Datacard is set to be visible when varVisibileField = “First” and the same for Second and Third DataCards. Pretty basic.
When the submitted form is opened in SharePoint, only the fields that are set to be visible should be visible, whether the browser has been refreshed or not refreshed. Example, if the First button was clicked and the First DataCard's Text Input had data entered in it, only the First field should be visible when the form is opened later from the list, regardless of browser refresh or not.
What is happening is after submitting, for example, a new form with the First field entered, without refreshing the browser, if I open an existing item in the list for example with the Second field entered, the field that displays in the form is an empty First field. I understand that this is because the data in the "session" persists rather than the variable set by the button.
What can I do to always display a DataCard that should be displayed by anticipated behavior regardless of when a new form or existing form is opened, regardless of what instance of a form was opened prior to it, and regardless of if the browser has been refreshed or not?
I’m trying to build a receipt generator in Power Apps but I’m unable to build my app to automatically convert an amount in Number format e.g 2000USD to amount in words e.g Two Thousand Dollar Only.
How can I achieve this?
Hey all,
I'm moving my team away from Excel / SharePoint based tools towards Power Apps model driven app and curious about how you managed the transition from SharePoint versioning to Dataverse. Currently, my team relies quite a bit on the ability to easily revert changes in Excel either via Ctrl + Z or accessing previous versions, but you can't really do the same with a relational database like Dataverse. Are you mostly just utilizing the "Audit History" feature?
I have created custom agent which is linked with dataverse, I want to include either in model driven or canvas . but in canvas they have removed the feature since Feb . in model driven adding custom copilot agent is still under preview. I have it to be production ready.
I have tried HTML web resources, but it no authentication but i m using Microsoft authentication, so it won't work. I tried to call copilot api directly but that is also in preview mode. I check m365 copilot but you can't customize it much I am adding additional topic and knowledge outside of my dataverse as well. I don't want to add it to teams it should be within app. Is there any way to add it ?
Hello!
I started using Power Apps with Canvas + SP List, moved on to Dataverse for Teams (free), before moving into Dataverse. I feel stupid for claiming this, but I genuinely thought, “once I have a premium license, I have infinite data storage.” Thinking about it more, that just doesn’t make sense to me.
So what does storage actually look like? Here is my thinking - users purchase premium licensing. Dataverse storage capacity gets added to overall tenant. Administrators will then provision environments to the users who purchased the premium licensing.
This generally makes sense, but there are various situations where I can see abuse / mis-use. Namely, how does an organization ensure the storage that the users purchased gets siphoned to them and only them? What stops someone from using more Dataverse storage than they purchased, which then means there’s less storage for other teams in an organization?
Sorry if this is confusing. I just am genuinely curious how large organizations handle this. It would be great to be like, “Yeah, this group purchases X licenses, which is Y storage. So throughout all their environments, if the group exceeds Y storage, then stop.” Or something like that.
We’re in the middle of it and trying to keep things clean without rebuilding the same complexity.
Each ticket has multiple fields, attachments, and role-based edits, and teams rely on exports for reporting. We also want smarter notifications based on what’s selected.
So far we’re focusing on:
Curious, what worked (or didn’t) for you, especially around permissions, notifications, and reporting during the move.
I am building a fairly large questionnaire app in Power Apps (around 700 questions). All of my questions are loaded on one screen, except they are filtered based on Areas and SubAreas selected on previous screens. So one "section" consists of around 10-70 different questions that have to be loaded at once (continuously scrollable).
To display the questions I am using a gallery (linked to a Sharepoint list of questions) where I have placed numerous different controls that are visible based on Question Type. The OnChange property for each of the controls saves the answers in a local collection (colAnswersDraft) and upon clicking the submit button, using Patch, the answers are stored in a separate Sharepoint list.
Even after reloading the app, exiting the screen, etc. I wanted the user to easily view their previously submitted answers, which is why I set the OnVisible property for my questionnaire screen to load all the answers from the Sharepoint list into a local collection (colAnswersSaved) and then linked the default properties of each of the controls to this collection. I put a text label in the gallery to check if the answers were loaded back properly, and they are.
The issue is as follows:
For my Yes/No questions (which are the highest in number, around 450) I am using a single select list box for which the default property is set correctly (as I already mentioned, checked with a text label) - if there exists an answer for this question in colAnswersSaved, take that, if not, be blank - works like a charm.
I put another text label, which would let me check what the Selected value of the control is (Text = YesNo.Selected.field_1 (where field_1 is where the items (Yes and No) for the list box come from)) and here is where the problem arises. When I am actively filling out the questionnaire, clicking on Yes or No, the label displays what I clicked, as expected. However, even after saving all my answers, if I completely close the app (reload it) and open it back up, the text label for my selected value suddenly becomes blank (while the default value is still Yes or no - whatever answer I saved in my Sharepoint list of answers), thus making the control "blank" as well (with nothing selected).
If I move to a different screen, navigate between different parts of the app and come back, the selection isn't blank, it only becomes blank after reloading it - but I expect that the users will do so, and I don't want them to come back to the app and suddenly find blank controls, even though saved answers actually exist for those controls and there is no need to fill anything out again.
I learned that controls in a gallery may be unstable, thus limiting their ability to perceive their default value as their selected value - I tried splitting the questions into smaller sections, I tried the radio control, but nothing seems to work.
The odd thing is that every other control (Rating scale, text input, combo box, even other list boxes which are not Yes/No but rather multiple choice questions with different options) works perfectly. Their default value and selected value loads correctly and the previously submitted answers are highlighted/displayed on the controls.
What could be the issue with the Yes/No list box specifically? how can I ensure that it "selects itself" based on its default value?
Another important thing to mention is that upon every reload only one (the first) Yes/No control selects itself properly and then the rest are blank. Also the main distinction between other multiple choice list boxes and the Yes/No one is that for each of the other list boxes the list of items (set in the Items property) are unique (since there is a big range of questions with various different answers), but not for Yes/No.
I hope I explained everything well enough and I would greatly appreciate any help or advice on this matter. Thank you.
I’m having to create more solutions using power apps and most of the time SharePoint lists do just enough for the task at hand. I’m curious what my limitations are?
How many rows can I REALLY have in a SharePoint list? I see some people saying 30million and the 5000 cap is just for the front end viewing and filtering?
How can I best utilize SharePoint lists? Is there other options (besides Dataverse) that could be a better choice?
I currently work for a gov contractor so sometimes our options and online information is very limited.
I’m supposed to be running a small team for Power Platform Solutions and I want to make sure I’m making good decisions.
I’ll also take any advice for running a power platform team!!!
Hello !
So let me explain
I have a lot of horizontal galleries, some of them being intricated in a vertical gallery.
It all works nice on a regular screen size, but too small on a phone-sized screen, sadly then powerapp will create as many scrollbars as there are galleries, while they're supposed to all works together. And i couldn't find a way to synchronize them directly through powerapp.
The idea i had was to create the galleries bigger than the screen, and let the navigator manage a unique scrollbar.
Sadly, it seems to not work, the screen is cropped as intended, but can't scroll through it.
Is there any way to make it work ? Or maybe an other idea to my problem ?
Thank you !
Hi, so I have a power automate flow that I’m working on. It’s triggered when an email in dynamics D365 is changed to “Pending Send”. The flow picks up all the fields from D355 and is supposed to send an email through power automate “Send an Email (V2)” action.
The issue is, Images embedded in body (screenshots/signatures) are being automatically cropped or shows a broken window icon at the receiver’s end. Interesting bit is that in looks okay in outlook app but corrupted in outlook web.
This is what i have in input of Send Email step:
emailMessage/Body": "<p>@{triggerOutputs()?['body/description']}</p>",
Hosting on sharepoint might now be possible as users will be attaching any screenshots or images when writing an email in dynamics and send, wont be always specific set of images. Any leads would be very helpful, thanks!

If you are building in the Microsoft ecosystem, you’ve likely realized that Copilot Studio is excellent for rapid, low-code internal bots but it isn't a "one-size-fits-all" solution. For many enterprise scenarios, the M365 Agents Toolkit is the necessary next step to overcome specific architectural hurdles.
While user-friendly, Copilot Studio has several verified limitations that drive developers toward the Toolkit:
The choice often comes down to the bill. Copilot Studio uses a Credit model (where one complex interaction can hit 25+ credits). While internal usage is often free (zero-rated) if you already have M365 Copilot licenses, the Toolkit offers token-based pricing. This allows you to "engineer" your costs routing simple tasks to GPT-4o-mini and reserving expensive models only for high-stakes logic.
The Verdict: Use Copilot Studio for simple, internal productivity. Use the Agents Toolkit for deep integration, regulatory compliance, or SaaS products.
I’m curious to hear from the community: What type of agents have you all created using the M365 Agents Toolkit? Are you moving away from Studio for specific projects, or using them in tandem?
I have a built out a ticketing system for users to submit and edit tickets. They want to be able to attach images to the tickets and be able to view a small imagine of the attachment. These are repair tickets so they like having visuals of what is being repaired.
I was able to have a gallery inside the form to pull the attachments and have a small image of the picture attached. All of a sudden it stopped working. They can attach images and documents but the image won’t load anymore.
Is there a better way to display the attachments? I’m a little stuck on where it broke itself?
Sharing a November conversation with Scott Durow, Rami Mounla and Tomas Prokop recorded after PPCC, on where Power Platform governance goes as coding agents take over authoring.
Outtakes of interest:
- Organizations still govern the people building things and the code they ship, same as the low-code years. The difference is that one person driving a coding agent session ships a lot more code in a lot less time. The biggest practical change since the recording is that AI harnesses (Copilot CLI, Claude Code, Codex) have gotten a lot better at holding a plan together and keeping focused context across a session.
- Day-to-day, the work that makes agents productive is the work that makes people productive. Clear ask, right context, a review before anything ships. Under-brief a junior or an agent, both stall.
- On Power Platform specifically, the governance principles from the low-code years line up cleanly with what you need to govern agent-authored work.
This content was made in support of the upcoming Update Days: Power Platform conference. https://power.updatedays.cz
Also, the discussion focuses primarily on governance, so it doesn't go deep on using your favorite AI harness for Power Platform development. That's a topic we're dedicating a full post to soon, and one we cover extensively at the conference.
Hi all, I have a simple usecase (I assumed). Just like within SQL I would like to create some views based on my Dataverse table, so that we can use those views directly in Power Apps instead of filtering in the app.
Just like in SQL, I would create multiple views based on my SQL table, so that end-users only get to see the data they need to see without filtering themselves.
For example: I want to filter my table on all the records where column Day = Monday, but the column Day does not show up in the filtering.
It seems like I can't choose custom columns for filtering....
I would've imagined this is like a basic functionality. Does someone know how we can filter on Custom columns?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT:
I added some extra context:
I would like to filter on all the rows where Valid = No or where Day = Monday, but I can't choose either of the 3 columns from my Table:
EDIT 2: found the solution!
Seems like I had to set my columns to Searchable (= Yes)
I am an auditor in a bank, new to powerapps and looking for opportunities to leverage power applications to streamline workflows. Would be happy to know how others are using it.
Hoi,
Hope someone can help me out with linking tables together in Dataverse. I’ve been playing around with it and watching some tutorials, and my understanding is that the relationship reference always links to the primary column. That’s where I seem to be running into issues (although I might be wrong haha).
My three table setup is as follows (hierichal):
Asset Master Data → Unit Master Data → Lease Master Data.
In the Asset Master Data, I assign a unique reference code in the primary column, for example A26001. One asset can have multiple units, which are linked to that asset via Lookup and then get a unique number like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
The Lease Master Data is then linked to a single unit. What I’d like to achieve is an automatically generated unique code like A26001-1.
The issue I’m running into is that in the primary column of the Unit Master Data table, I can’t seem to use a formula to combine these values. So now i cant built a look-up in the Lease Master Data with the desired uniq code A26001-1. That’s where I’m getting stuck.....
Hope someone can point me in the right direction on how to set this up properly!
So I don’t have a school or work email account. Is there a way I can sign up to Power Apps without a school or work email account? I want to practice and learn it.
Hello,
my name is Tomas Prokop, I'm a Microsoft MVP and co-organizer of the Update Days: Power Platform conference that my colleague u/Fulern posted about yesterday. I've recently started writing my thoughts publicly and this is partly crossposted from my LinkedIn, where I post more frequently. Post approved by mods.
Low-code platforms let people build apps without writing code. Coding agents now do that part easily: configure screens, wire up logic, connect data. The point-and-click work is getting automated.
But AI also writes a lot more custom code. More code always means more things breaking. The need for people who understand what's actually running underneath is growing, not shrinking.
Two directions to take from here.
Path 1: Engineering craft: Not just writing code, but architecting components and solutions that survive AI regeneration. Building controls that maintain quality and stability when agents change your codebase significantly and fast. Documenting intent well enough that the system can be understood, tested, and rebuilt. ALM, automated testing, resilient architecture. The hard skills that keep production running.
Path 2: Bridge the IT-business gap: Understand how businesses actually create value. Map their cost structures. Hypothesize about improvements and turn those hypotheses into plans for automations and tools. This is the work that happens before and around digital systems: requirements, process design, change management. Hard for AI to do today, and where most projects actually fail.
There's plenty of important work in between too (operations, risk mitigation, governance). But if you're a Power Platform maker wondering where to invest your learning time, pick a direction. Deeper into the machine, or closer to the business.
Thoughts?
We're covering a lot of this at Update Days: Power Platform on April 27-28 (Prague + online). https://power.updatedays.cz
