I think it would be great to make photos captured in the PowerApp Camera control be submitted to SharePoint List.

Hello, My main blocking point right now, is that I can not attach files to SharePoint list via PoweApps edit forms. I can create app which can manage orders in SharePoint list for my company in few seconds, but we are forced to keep original email request in list. For this we are using InfoPath which works fine, but PowerApps should be much more suitable solution. Also we are using same procedure but with excel forms, for that is also important to be able to EDIT excel/word... attachment directly on SharePoint. So what I would like to have in DisplayForm/edit form, when I click on excel file attached, it will open my excel, let me edit it and save it back directly to SharePoint like is possible now with forms on SharePoint. Once I will have those 2 things in PowerApps, my live will be much more easier! Would like to use PowerApps in our company, but right now... its not possible

It appears that currently "Managed Metadata" columns in SP are not supported by PowerApps. Is support for this column type on the roadmap? I am wondering why termstore related data is not by default supported by other Microsoft products. The PowerBI connector also does not support these column types, any specific reason?

It appears that currently “Task lists” in SP are not supported by PowerApps, it would be great if tasks would be supported so that project members can also manage their tasks remote (e.g. on the shopfloor).

Using a sitecolumn with lookup type that references a parent list. As a team member of the State of Kansas sharepoint team, we are suffering for more functionality with powerapps. We have a list of State Agencies that lives in a Site Collection as a List. In a subsite we create a site column [lookup] that references that list. In sharepoint we are able to use that site column and add it to list in the subsite and it all works seamlessly. When taking our list and trying to use PowerApps to create a form or a distributable app for agencies to use, the app will does not support this functionality. The error that powerapps provides is that "The lookup list is in another web...". As of this morning, the column is no longer available at all in power apps. At least we could submit a partial part of the list in question, unfortunately the informaiton in the site column is critical to useful forms.

Can we have full integration with SharePoint lists: When you click the "New" button - it launches the SharePoint List When you click the "Title" link of a list item - it launches the PowerApp in view mode When you click "Edit" then it launches the PowerApp Once this is done, then PowerApps is a complete replacement for InfoPath

Currently, a data source that resides on SharePoint shows in the list of data sources with only the list name. This makes it difficult to work out what SharePoint site collection or site hosts the list. Please add functionality that shows the full URL of the SharePoint list in a data source.

When you use Flow and use SharePoint its possible to add a custom list and custom listname. In that scenario you are able to use a list that the Flow originally was not able to locate. This would be great for PowerApps as well.

It would be good to share the SharePoint connection to the group. Scenario : Data is entered by the admin group and it should be visible to another group (user group), allowing the user group view/ update individually. (Company have multiple individual clients/ employees to be maintaned in a single list, or Staff creats student information and ask to update the student's individual information). Becuase data is not entered/ created by user group individually, it is not easy to maintain item level permissions. Admin group will have the proper permission to the list and user group may not have any permissions to the list. but through the shared connection, user group can view/ update the required information using an application in PowerApps. If we can share the connection, then admin can create PowerApps that can have many applications and SharePoint list can be used as a database.

It would be really good to create a Powerapp for the Sharepoint list type 'Issue tracker'.

Hello Team, We are not able to see the view in the SharePoint list when powerapps is created from powerapps portal. I have discussed this in detail in the forum. https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/PowerApps-Forum/powerapps-view-not-showing-in-Sharepoint-list/m-p/24242 Thanks, Madhan

Hi Everyone, I've been playing around with PowerApps and Flow and I have to admit, they are slowly growing on me. My primary objective is to test first hand and see if PowerApps and Flow can replace InfoPath Designer and SharePoint Designer. PowerApps form still has some ways to go but Flow is really impressive. Take a look at this POC I built. Stay tuned for the TechNet Wiki article I'm finishing up.SharePoint integration with PowerApps and Flow video Let me know if you have any questions.
