Solved: Re: First time embedding PowerApp in SharePoint 36...

PowerAid · ‎10-22-2018

I just embedded my powerapp to SharePoint 365 (first time) and not sure what's up with the dark gray background. I am using the SharePoint "modern experience" vs. "classic SharePoint". My embed code is as follows:

Attached is a screenshot. If I adjust the width and the height, I can make the powerapp bigger and it makes the dark gray space smaller.

Hi,

Have you tried using the web part for PowerApps instead? https://support.office.com/en-us/article/use-the-powerapps-web-part-6285f05e-e441-408a-99d7-aa688195...

If you want to embed it yourself with the html snippet, the width and height need to be in the same proportion as the screen canvas (the white part) itself. Another thing you can try is if you go into Advanced settings, there is an Enable app embedding user experience. This option will make the background white.

That seems to work better so thanks for the tip. I didn't know that was available. There is an issue with the size, however. It is displaying the powerapp smaller than what I see when I view the powerapp from the powerapp link provided in the details page of the app. I see that there is a way to resize the app by pulling down on the bottom right corner but it won't allow me to pull down any futher. It seems like SharePoint is preventing me from making the height any taller than it currently is. My powerapp is a protrait tablet canvas.
