URL to open Powerapp to specific record

[VisibleFilm]

Hi there - I feel like this should be fairly simple but I cannot figure out how to do it.  I want to send out a URL to a user that points to a Powerapp form and displays a spcific record from the SharePoint list.  I want to display the record in the Sharepoint list with an ID of 21 and I'm trying the string below, but it always just displays the first record.  I'm assuming I need to set the ID parameter somewhere inside of the Powerapp form but Im not sure where, can anyone help?  

https://web.powerapps.com/apps/<MyAppID>?ID=21

Try something like this:
Set(tempVar, Param(ID))
This can be on the OnVisible property of a screen or on the OnStart property of the app.
Then wherever you are trying to display this record in a form, use this ID to filter the list of records to get the one you want, with something like this:

LookUp(Entity, ID = tempVar)

Let me know if this helps.

Are you trying to display the record in a form? Trying to understand this part of your question: " I want to display the record in the Sharepoint list with an ID of 21 and I'm trying the string below, but it always just displays the first record. "

If its a form, then set the Item property of the form to the formula I suggested.

I guess my question is how are you displaying the record in your app?

Please note that you will have to modify the formula slightly based on your real data. But yea, let me know if it doesn't work. We can look into it further then.
