Flow notification when opens app

[Anonymous]

Hey Guys, is it possible to me (owner of app), receive a Notification or e-mail, when someone opens the App I created?

If it is, how can we achiev this?

You could create a PowerApps triggered Flow and add it to the OnStart property of the PowerApp.

Hi @Anonymous,

Do you want to receive an email when someone else open the app that you created?

Have you solved your problem?

I agree with @Jeff_Thorpe's thought almost, you could consider take a try to trigger a flow when opening your app, then within the flow, send an email to you.

I have made a test on my side, please take a try with the following workaround:

Create a flow:

Create an app:

Set the OnStart property of the first screen of your app to following formula:

'YourFlowName'.Run()

More details about triggering a flow from an app, please check the following article:

Hi v-xida-msft, yes I got it working fine now, thanks for the help!

Im wondering now if it is possible to keep registering the entrances in a excel table so I can analyse datetimes that my app is more opened, its a cool analyze 🙂
