I watched the following PowerApps ComputerVision OCRText video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXSRKfYqYMM&t=844s
Has Microsoft resolved this so that the ComputerVision OCRText connector will work directly within PowerApps without having to use Flow as discussed in the video above ?
If so, can someone please describe the exact syntact to execute the OCRText Command on an image?
We would prefer to not use Flow, if possible.
Thank you.

Thanks for posting @vsslasd - can you review the above reply and advise if it addresses your question?
@Anonymous
Thank you, Michael. Are you saying this works without Flow ?
That was our goal, to not have to use Flow with this product.
Followed the youtube example from Paul, but I am getting an error message from the following expression on the flow Set(varOCR,OCRTest.Run(First(colPhoto).Url).ocrtext) "Invalid number of argument received 1 expected 2" any ideas where I have gone wrong??
Thanks
Michael.
