Thank You for watching and appreciating the effort.
Spent a lot of time on this one.
Thank you Reza!
That's great walk through the types of apps. And what I like on top of everything else is that you are clearly articulating around licensing implications. Many don't. That's gold!
My pleasure! Thank You so much for watching and liking the video.

Great 👍
Truly amazing content Raza. I’m a big fan! :)
Thank You so much 😊
Great !!! The value you bring is amazing.
If i may add : you can do Code to extend the nocode approach in model driven (using javascript or pcf control)
Thank You!
Yes, model-driven and portals can do code using javascript and pcf.
Thanks Reza. This video was Amazing, very informative. I am learning a lot whit your videos.
Glad to hear that! Thank You so much for watching and liking my videos.
Greatest Info till date.
Reza: Waiting for "Power Automate Types"
Thank You.
Power Automate Types is in my list.
Excellent review, even in the Model-driven you can create custom Pages based on the PowerApp-canvas, there are limitations - but very convenient compared to javascript or pcf control :)
Thanks! Custom pages are much easier to deal with that JS or PCF.
Currently, working on a complex model-driven app for a customer that has custom pages.
One can do amazing things with it.
Thanks a lot , expecially the comparavision list
My pleasure
Thank You Reza for guiding us in Microsoft Power Platform!!!
All the things that I have learnt related Power Apps and Power Automate till now is because of you only!!!
Thanks A Lot❣️
Wow! Thank You so much Pranav. I hope to keep providing quality content.

Welcome!
Tq Reza... Cool.. I hope you can show how integrate from multiple sharepoint list in one power apps .. let say 16 data source sharepoint to 4 screens, 4 data for each screen
You can connect to multiple SP lists and integrate based on your use case. I have done videos with multiple lists.

Thx Reza. I got a question, I'm a newbie of Power Apps. It's so exciting to find the videos you presented which is an excellent resource to learn Power Apps. But, with so many videos, where should I start and next and next...Thanks in advance.
Thank You for watching and liking my videos.

Awesome…great explanation Reza❤
Is any video tutorial For Power apps portal and power page ? Please suggest.
th-cam.com/video/UFmL4svm8yM/w-d-xo.html
Very well explained. thank you very much for this video. Can you share this presentation ?
Presentation is same deck as in App in a day.
Thanks Reza! 💯Great balance of detail and functionality! 💯 Love the wealth of information without needless inflating the length of video!
I've been tasked with creating Power BI Visualizations that need to be responsive to user adjusting variable values, that I've put into a dataverse table with a custom app, but because I used the dataverse connector I am getting notified that there will be charge when my temp license expires.
Is there a method to convert dataverse tables to be associated with a team and therefore become included in my Office 365 licensure?
Also if I do go that route will I be able to share these Power BI Visualizations without adding my external users as guests to that team?
In the end I'd like to create Power BI Visualizations that my internal users can update variables that immediately refresh without having to worry about the refresh limit as well as provide access to the visualizations to external users who I don't want to have access to app to update the variables but view the power bi visualization and also prevent them from accessing the backend tables and be limited to only interacting with the Visualization Pages I want to provide them.
Thanks for the compliments.
Dataverse (DV) is a premium feature. Dataverse for Teams (DV4T) is not. You cannot directly go from DV4T. You will need to move it manually or use Dataflows.
Power BI licensing is separate from Power Apps licensing and is not covered with DV4T.
Nice video .Also can you post a video on which defaults have to be changed for all datatypes of sharepoint columns in customized form ?? I mean defaults of data card or data card value ?

Thanks Reza now a days its worth watching your video rather than movie. Just want to understand can we share Power App canvas App with Microsoft 365 group ?
Thanks Ankit!
Yes, we can share with groups.

Thanks Reza Dorrani Love Form Pakistan's
Thanks Noman
thanks Reza, if you put some light on your stmt for Power Apps - Its task based and Role based?
Task based - Tasks assigned to users or groups - showcase information accordingly.
Role based - Check user role (security)/ groups / permissions and accordingly showcase information
Hi Reza, Thanks a lot sharing your knowledge !! , I am a beginner to power apps and could you please let me know the order I should follow in your videos ? Thanks
Thanks!
I have plenty of videos. They are in no specific order. I have categorized them in playlists though which may help.
@@RezaDorrani thanks a lot..😘
Hi Reza, I came across this video as I'm looking for alternatives to solve the issue of delegation with Canvas Apps and Sharepoint. My initial idea was to embed the Canvas App in a model-driven one, and migrate from Sharepoint to Dataverse. The problem is that I embedded Power BI reports within the Canvas App. What's your recommendation? If consultancy is needed, I'd be happy to discuss it through another channel. Thank you! Great video as always!
Check my playlist on delegation.
Not sure how power bi embedded reports help in delegation.
My email is on About Tab of my channel.
Thanks Reza. I have followed your approach for bulk edit and update rows, like using button inside gallery and button name on onchange property of each control like Select(button name). It was worked properly earlier but all of sudden it was misbehaving and updating existing records as blank for combobox controls.
Could you please verify at your end also once and please guide us how can we fix this issue.
thanks in advance.
I will have to look at your App in action to provide guidance. My recommendation would be to not use combo box controls in grids since they have a bug in which the onchange property gets called when gallery data is updated.
I would recommend posting your issue/query with screenshots on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com
thank you very much reza i am from indonesia, your videos have helped me make applications from power apps to make my work easier
May I ask, about how do we export items from share points to excel business with certain conditions (based on the value or part of the column criteria) be it numbers or part of many choices (one of item drop box)?
Thanks for watching and liking my videos.
I did a video on export to excel using Power Automate.

Awesome tutorials...great explanation Reza. Can you please share, if you have any link for Power Apps Portal and Power apps Pages.

Thanks so much Reza for the great tutorial , I am wondering can you please share some light on how do you make these videos ? if you use any tools if you don't mind can you please sharing with me , I'm planning to make videos on my work and share my knowledge .
Thanks in advance,

I use Camtasia for video recording and editing.
@@RezaDorrani Thanks so much .
Hi Reza. Just wanted to understand does the Microsoft Dataverse is included in the Microsoft Business Premium license? Do I have to procure or pay an extra cost if I wanted to create a PowerApps portal for anonymous access because I'm planning to create a portal where it is accessed by all user types (authenticated, administrator, anonymous). However, for anonymous the amount of people accessing the portal is still unknown. Looking forward to your advise and thank you :)
Dataverse is not covered in Business Premium license.
You have to procure Power Apps premium licensing to get that. It is an extra cost per user per month.
Power Apps Portals licensing for anonymous users is based on page views per month.
Very well explained. Thank you.
I have an issue though. I have a standalone canvas app integrated with my SharePoint list. Integration is such that whenever a user clicks on new/edit or view a list item from SharePoint, it triggers power app based on selected list item ID. Now I have some views in SharePoint, all linked to SharePoint only. The problem is sometimes when I navigate from one view to another, it trigger power apps randomly when it should just take me to that particular view. This is quite random, doesn't happen all the time. It's kinda frustrating really. I tried reaching out to some blogs, seniors but haven't got any satisfactory result. Can you please help me with this?
I will have to look at your App & issue in action to provide guidance. I would recommend posting your issue/query with screenshots on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com
If no assistance from forums, then you may need to get consulting help.
@@RezaDorrani sure Reza thanks!
Hi @Reza is there a way we can add filling excel like functionality inside a powerapp?
Thank you

I'm a beginner to Power Apps and I'm hoping to build a knowledge management app for my team. I know what I want it to do eventually but I do not have the skills to just build it right now. So I will be building slowing bit by bit. I think that eventually I will be doing a Model style app, which looks like the information needs to be in Dataverse. Right now my team uses SP lists. Is it going to be a problem later to convert our SP lists to data tables in dataverse once I have the skills to connect all of these things?
There would be some work involved. I highly recommend picking the right data source to start with to avoid rework.
Thanks you Raza .. it took year for me to clearly understand what is model driven and portals. Does this mean I cannot do any form validation on model driven and portals ?
All data validation can be done in Table itself and the model-driven app and portal will respect it.
Alternatively, you can also drive validation logic with js.
Amazing presentation ! I’m currently building a apps true teams, because the option to « share with colleagues » et the ability to choose from Azure security group is fantastic because there are updated by my IT teams. It means my app is always shared to the good users. But I have connectors to dataverse, which is embedded in the Solution. But as soon as I connect sharepoint library, my security group does not inherit from the parameter share with colleagues.
How can I make it even between sharing dataverse data and sharepoint data through power apps for teams ? Thanks a lot
Only Dataverse security is set automatically via Teams apps. SharePoint or any other data source, you would need to explicitly grant access to security group by going to that data source.
Hi Reza, could you please make a Power Apps that allows saving form responses to sharepoint and allows drafts and also emails the user after form submission with a pdf form of all responses and enables adding digital signature inside the Power Apps form? Thanks in advance!
I have done videos that have parts of your request.
I have videos for "Save as draft", "generate pdf", "signature". Check my Power Apps playlist.
Great video Reza. Can I have the presentation of this video or any other neat presentation about the power apps, power automate and power BI where I can present all in a nice and informing way? Appreciate your prompt feedback.
I did a recent video on power apps learning resources. It has links to app in a day workshop which has the presentation for power apps. I do not have any for flows or power bi.
@@RezaDorrani How about the presentation of this video? Can you share the slides please?
@@hasanh.khaleel9900 Its similar to the ones in app in a day. This video was done a while ago from my old laptop. Not sure if I even have the deck anymore. Your best bet will be to get the decks from app in a day.
Is it possible to embed an existing canvas app into a portal or perhaps to recreate the powerapp using the portal components?
A canvas app does not support anonymous auth. So adding it to a portal wont help.
@@RezaDorrani Ah yes. Good point. Thanks.
Hello Reza. Thanks so much for the helpful apps! I was trying to import the Inspection app, but I was facing some issue importing the following flows (Export PDF Tabular Data, Export Inspection Report to PDF, Export Inspection Report to PDF with Signature):
Flow save failed with code 'DynamicOperationRequestClientFailure' and message 'The dynamic operation request to API 'sharepointonline' operation 'GetTable' failed with status code 'Unauthorized'. This may indicate invalid input parameters. Error response: { "error_description": "Exception of type 'Microsoft.IdentityModel.Tokens.AudienceUriValidationFailedException' was thrown." }'.
Quite new with PowerApps tbh so I'm not sure how to resolve this. Would you be able to help, please? I checked a few solutions around (i.e. something about DLP blocking which I don't have), but I'm not even sure if they're the right answer to address this.
Try this one github.com/rdorrani/PowerApps/blob/master/InspectionAppUpdated_20210822173502%20(1).zip
Dlp is a tenant level or env level setting that your admin must have put in place.
Also, I will recommend posting your issue with screenshots on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com
The cost still hurts, maybe they change in time. Thanks for share Reza! :)
Pricing is Microsoft controlled.
Videos are in my control :)
@@RezaDorrani 😁
Are you able to build an app on dataverse that you can then have an app as your front end on more than one platform- for example a teams app and same or similar app using same data source on SharePoint? Meaning various was to interact with same data?
Never tried it.
@@RezaDorrani what about the image storage of receipt images. The free dataverse for teams will fill up with one expense report is there a way around this? Btw thanks so much for your content. Awesome!!!
@@matthewjohnson1511 You could store it in SharePoint
@@RezaDorrani add this to your backlog 😀 for videos to make where you use a pointer in dataverse for teams but the image resides in SharePoint keeping the app cheap or free for those of us trying to use this to get adoption within our enterprise.
@@matthewjohnson1511 I make videos when I get multiple requests on a particular topic.
Every quarter I ask subscribers for topic suggestions on the Community Tab of my TH-cam channel.

It would be helpful if I can get this presentation deck @Reza ?
Contents of deck are from app in a day
Hi Raza is poweapps portal is same as designing canvas app ? Can we get the same look and feel and can use formulas in power portal ? I am not seeing any videos which give a step by step approach to create app as we do in canvas app. Please guide
It is not the same. More on Power Portals (new name Power Pages) - th-cam.com/video/UFmL4svm8yM/w-d-xo.html
Hi Reza, Is it possible to allow external customer to use Model-driven apps? Similar to Power Pages Portal allows Social Identity provider through Azure AD B2C capability of Azure AD. Is it possible for Model-driven app?
Not via model driven as far as I know.
@@RezaDorrani thanks
Hi Reza, would you happen to have powerpoint slides for this video?
Presentation deck is same as the one for App in a day.
@@RezaDorrani Sorry what is App in a day? Is that another video or resource? Would you be able to provide me the link for it?

I have not shared that App since it was built for a customer.
Hi,
I want to send a form to employees. But whoever didn't fill the form they should get a reminder mail to fill the form. How can I do this?
Use flow to send reminders.
32:28 i created a model driven app to dataverse and run the app. It didn't ask me for a premium license (i was suprised). But when i do this with a canvas app (with the same tables on dataverse) it ask me to start a premium trial. So my mind is not clear about model driven app license.
Both require user to have a premium license.
@@RezaDorrani In the MD app settings it says "Pass assignment:
This app can be shared with users without a Per User plan."
@@kadirkkkk Power apps premium plans per user or per app. You need to have either one.
Why aren't canvas apps fully responsive across all platforms (web, mobile, tablet, etc.) out of the box? Do portals offer this functionality?
Portals/Pages and Model-driven Apps are responsive by design.
In 13.46 I am not able to get the Expense table
Expenses is a custom Table created in my dataverse. You would not get that in your tenant.
@@RezaDorrani I want to see the table in my dataverse...how to create it?
