To upload a file from Power Apps to a SharePoint document library, let users pick the file with an Attachments control and send it to a Power Automate flow that runs the SharePoint Create file action. Power Apps can’t write files to a library on its own, because a library isn’t a list with an … Read more >>>
Contoso’s project managers kept opening every task record just to change its status from Not Started to In Progress. With 40 tasks per project, that was a lot of clicks. Switching the task list on the project form to the Power Apps grid control let them edit the status right in the grid. In this … Read more >>>
To set a context variable in Power Apps, call UpdateContext({locCartCount: 0}) in a behavior property such as a button’s OnSelect. The variable is created the first time the formula runs, it belongs to the current screen only, and every later UpdateContext call on that screen updates it. I’ll build a small shopping cart screen for … Read more >>>
If you’ve ever opened a Power Apps canvas app and wondered why it’s landing on the wrong screen — or why your app feels slow to load — this tutorial is for you. I’m going to walk you through everything about the Power Apps App.StartScreen property: what it is, how it works, how it differs from App.OnStart, and … Read more >>>
Collections are where I keep temporary data in a canvas app: a shopping cart, the items a user checked in a gallery, or rows I’m about to save.

When a Power Apps screen opens, the gallery selects its first item by default. That’s rarely the one people need. In one app I built, managers wanted the Marketing team highlighted straight away, and after adding a new employee, they expected to see that person selected, not the top row. In this tutorial, I’ll show … Read more >>>
I was building a bulk approval screen for an Expense Claims app. Managers check the claims they want in a gallery, pick an approver and a status at the top, and select Bulk Update. After the update, I wanted every check box to clear, so I added Reset(chk_Select) to the button. Power Apps refused it … Read more >>>
A sales manager I worked with wanted one screen in her Power Apps app that showed, at a glance, which product brought in the most revenue. A table of numbers didn’t do it, but a pie chart did: every slice showed a product’s share of total sales. In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to … Read more >>>
I was building a project app on a SharePoint list, and my first dropdown worked perfectly: it listed every project name.
