Case study power platform

Power App

• If you create the database first (share point first), you can create a power app via Model-driven
• If you create with design UI, you can create a power app via canvas
• Break components simple and re-used many times. However, you must be careful with input and output when defining a component
• The values are used for many screens, you can define global variables instead of a hard code value. For example font size, color, app Id
• If you change the value in the share point list, please refresh the connection in the Data tab
• When you want to add flow (Power Automate), please create a button and add flow via the Action menu by this button. Because when you add flow, it will replace the current code.
• When change the properties of the component, please verify the input value. Because it will reset value when change properties of the component
• After deploying, change App Id in configuration to link email and app have worked smoothly
• Try to save always because the browser can crash and lost sources code
• Using component should create a key to independent between 2 binding components

• Must delete all items in a list of share point before delete that list
• Please check require fields, max length, default value carefully when connection with power app
• Delete list in recent list, that list is not really deleted
