We need the ability to get various metadata about the app using formula. For example it woud be great to display the version number and relelase date of the app rather than manually adding them in a text field.

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

Please give ability to use share point folders as data storage. One drive for business is ok, but for sharing files with others, sharepoint folders would be ace.

Hi, My Idea: First step would be, that you make Lookup Columns work, that refer to an Document Library 2nd Step: Make them viewable as pdf and activate Feedback columns (like / Rating) -> Changing them / Uploading new versions would be great as well, but I understand that it might be very hard to implement all those Versioning functionalities as well ..... Best regards, Eric

I have received some feedback from my app users that it is sometimes hard to tell when image or text is clickable. On the desktop version, when you hover over an image the icon remains the same or when you hover a text it changes to the edit text icon, the mouse icon seems to change to hand icon only when hovering over objects like Icons or Controls like Button control. Example 1 The text in the Org Browser by Microsoft says View My Profile, when hovering over it with mouse, the mouse icon changes to select text icon. Example 2 When using images as buttons, the mouse will stay as a cursor and will not change to the hand icon. Example 3 Hovering mouse over the button. It changes to hand icon and it is clear that you can click it. This is not a problem on the Phone since you click with your fingers but it confuses the users on desktop. Would it be possible to make all objects with functions in OnSelect property to have a <a> tag or something similar that it would force the mouse cursor to change into hand?

OOT PowerApps has some themes but it's impossible to adapt the colors or to create one.. that could be a good idea

CRM 2013 introduces a great feature of Composite Fields (e.g., Full Name, Address). However, the fields that appear in this composite field are hard coded and not editable. It would be ideal if system customizers could edit these composite fields similarly to how they edit other forms within customizations.

When will the Developer Toolkit be available for CRM 2015/Visual Studio 2013?

Expose Dynamics 365 / SharePoint Document Management through the Portal. We would like the ability to add and display documents in the Portal that have been uploaded to Dynamics 365 and saved to SharePoint using SharePoint Document Management in Dynamics 365.

Full support for reading and writing to Sharepoint Choice fields, including ones with multiple selections enabled, is essential for PowerApps to be a viable platform. Upvote if you agree.

Customizing a form has been made a lot easier in 2011, but we still need to export the RibbonDiffXml and manually import it- which is a tedious process. Can we have graphical editing for form ribbons as well, and then add the 'OnClick' button for the ribbon element using the UI itself? Thanks in advance!!

Currently, PowerApps Launching Function is redirecting another app/page to different tab instead of same page. This feature is good for few schenarios but also we should have capabilities to launch in same page with using specific parameter value like (True/False). Tipical observation on Launching function:: When I am loading page and clcking button where Launch Function is specified to load another app, it is loading successfully in different tab. But while I am reverting back from 2nd app to parent app with same Launch function with passing parent page web link url then it is loading in Same Tab. When I reach parent page and repeat the same steps, it is working in same tab. Note: in my observation, Launching different tab only in first time execution of each session. Not sure the reason but observed.

Add a scrollable screen control that allows the designer to either set where the scroll bar position is or reset the scrollbar to top. Currently the screen remembers its position when you navigate away from it, then if you navigate back to that screen, the screen may not be reset back to the top of the items to display which is a negative user experience forcing the user to scroll back to the top of the scrollable screen.

It would be fantastic to have stored procedure access to PowerApps. It's a feature presently blocking a number of customers of ours from implementing PowerApps since much of their logic is in the sprocs already. They don't want to implement Flow for this since they see it as another cog to pay for. This seems like pretty core functionality but there must be some big technical blocker from MS implementing it.

It'd be nice to have a connector to SAP to mash financial data with Project Data

Anonymous · ‎05-03-2018

Problem The biggest problem with developing PowerApps with Azure SQL Database is that we have to share the SQL Connector with each user of the app. What that means is that each employee can bypass the app by creating their own app and adding this connector to their app (since it is shared). They get the ability to see all the tables and views in the database. Basically, everything there is in the SQL database, on top of that they also get the ability to edit the information in any way they please. This is not an issue for non-confidential information and simple apps. However, we have plans to develop more complex apps with data that should not be seen by everyone who will be using the app. PowerApps is great as we can build custom logic on who sees what. However, since each employee can create a fake app and throw in the SQL connector that was shared with them, this means that all the security and complex data validation built in the app becomes useless. Idea I think the simplest solution would be to make the SQL Connector when sharing it, the user gets “Can use” permission, it would be great if we could give an even lower permission level like “Can use only in this App”. This would make it impossible for them to create fake apps and throw in this SQL Connector to see data they are not supposed to see. OR Another option would be that when user has “Can use” permissions on SQL Connector they would only be allowed to use it where the owner put that SQL Connection, making it impossible for them to drop this connection in their Apps or Flows. Either one of those solutions would make PowerApps a lot more useful for a large number of corporations. This would definitely push PowerApps adoption for more complex systems and bring it above other similar platforms out there.

Several of my clients assume that CRM Online sandbox instances don't require a portal license. This is understandable: users do not need additional licenses to access sandboxes and there is no guidance given in the Pricing and Licensing Guide (May 2016). Some Microsoft representatives suggest that customers do need to purchase portal licenses for sandboxes, but I can't find any guidance to confirm this. Ideally, there would be a low cost CRM portals sandbox license given that sandbox portals are likely to be much less visited and used and therefore require far fewer resources than a production portal.
