Thanks for this tutorial. Just what I was looking for. It took a while before I found this.

Great video. My only suggestion is not to switch back and forth so much from the screen view to the view of just you on the computer. I think the circle with you in it is adequate for most of the video.

Hi. Thank you for the info! I wanted to know... If I have a form filled out by a customer regarding specific items they would like to purchase and then I want to link the form through power automate to power apps, is that possible? My power apps will be connected to an excel table with details regarding each product. Then I want the customer's answers on the form trigger power apps and display his/her options using powerautomate. Is that possible to create?

[saurabhtalele]

can i set some dynamic content from canvas app on fly? like___ items ()['sharepoint ColumnName']

[lefthandedcreativeness]

I don't think this tutorial is very good. You approach it from the wrong side from my POV. No one would usually start in the flow, they would usually build out their app / forms in Power Apps. Quite disappointing.
