Embed Stream Video in PowerApps Tutorial🍾👍 05-11-2021 01:13 AM

PowerApps finally loves Microsoft Stream 😀
Microsoft Stream is coming to PowerApps in January 2020. This is an incredible development as we can now have organisation videos safely held in Office 365 that can be for all sorts of purposes. In this video we see how to use the control, frankly it is awesome. We can set a start time, fit the video to the screen, SEARCH for words said during the video and hold the videos in a gallery. As a video maker this is really significant. During the video we use the table function and you can borrow the syntax here. Remember this is ONLY available in US Preview environments at this time. Sort(Table({VidURL:"https://web.microsoftstream.com/video/5e22a9b5-4142-4e80-ba33-ddf8bafcadf7",Item:1,StartTime:30}, {VidURL:"https://web.microsoftstream.com/video/4907a3c3-c07e-4ad8-8481-59c440b8caf6",Item:2,StartTime:50}, {VidURL:"https://web.microsoftstream.com/video/dfa9daf7-2482-4199-bf3d-cf1dc58c8368",Item:3, StartTime:70}, {VidURL:"https://web.microsoftstream.com/video/dfa9daf7-2482-4199-bf3d-cf1dc58c8368",Item:4, StartTime:120} ),Item,Ascending) Here is a link to the vid on building a Power BI Explorer - I fully intend to integrate Stream into this storytelling methodology https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/The-Ultimate-CDS-Power-BI-Explorer-Part-1-From-Zero-...

Thank you @rorybi  for the great video. 

Got a question related to video control, not Stream content, but I hope you can answer this - How to set the StartTime of the video?

I cannot do this. When I create a button and trying to set "OnSelect" referring to the Video control, I can only set Start but not StartTime property.

Found it - I have used a variable in the Video.StartTime and then by updating this variable got the result I needed. 

Couldn't found this way anywhere.

Hi Michal,

Sorry for not getting back to you.  Yes, you're quite right this is the way to go.  I found that the only way of "resetting" the control is to pass in a blank into the streamurl and then pass in a valid url.

This structure worked fine for me.
Set(gvStream,{Video:""})
;
Set(gvStream,{Video:"https://web.microsoftstream.com/video/dfaf3789-9caa-44f3-9cce-f567f845d5a6",TimeStart:gvStream.TimeS...})
