PowerApps Hide Button Based on User and other fun

In this video, you will learn how to show and hide buttons based on the logged on user and other techniques to make your App more adaptive to the situation. We use LookUp, IsBlank, Not, User, Office 365 Groups, and more to pull this off.

Oh man, I used to build two applications, one for the submitter and one for the team. Now I use this same functionality to merge the two platforms. Even though I've been doing this for the last 4 months your video still showed me a new way of doing it! Thanks Shane!

Good video! There is not too much content available for these scenarios and you really hit the nail in the head with this video.

YES! THANK YOU FOR GETTING MORE COMPLICATED WITH THE DATA QUERY! Sorry for yelling. I was very excited you took the time to get more complicated.

This is exactly what I've been looking for. Thank you Shane!
Actually, like your clients, I work in the HR department too, and I have to create this "manager approval" button, which is visible to managers only. Your video definitely helps me out on this :)

Thanks a lot for the video! 🤗
At 16:27, what if I have Access as a choice field in SharePoint and not as a text field? Appreciate your support!

Excellent Video Shane! Do you have a video showing how to make a field hidden or visible if a checkbox is clicked?

[ankita]

Thankyou for the video. Question- can we have an app with multiple screens with admin able to access all screens while other users can only access certain screens based on their role?

[EuroWin]

Such great videos! It helps me a lot for my job(MS Application Engineer). BTW, your attitude is so cool! Keep it up, Master Shane!

Shane, great video this helped me with one of my power apps a while back but now managing my access list is to time consuming. I want to change my button view to what you described for the last button in this video. I just can’t find the second video. could you share the video link with me?

[Fernando_Calero]

Hi Shane, great training, as usual, thanks! Also, I created the Access field in a SP list as choice type and that generated an "invalid argument type" error. I changed it to Single Line Text and everything went smoothly afterwards.

Thank you very much Shane, you are great!
I need to create a save button that is enabled on the 1st of each month and disabled on the 15th of each month automatically so that users can only send information within a certain date. I did not find instructive about the latter, do you know if it can be done and how?

its 2021 and this is still useful. Thank you!

May i ask how to do the access list but with a people column? It does not seem to work when i try it.

I ran into the issue that the button will still be available for about 1 to 2 seconds to individuals not in my Access Control list (mine is called Voters list) and of course someone went in to click on it right away before it disappeared. Not sure if anyone else had this issue, but I fixed it by making a varAccess variable on app start that saves the boolean value when compared to my Voters list. Then I put the button on an inner screen so that it is automatically invisible and does not even pop up for the 1 to 2 seconds while the app loads and decides the value. This is my app on start line: Set(varUser, User().Email); Set(varAccess, !IsBlank(LookUp(Voters, Title = varUser).Title)) and then my vote button is just visible set to varAccess. Thanks so much for your help with this video!!

Hi shane, this is the tutorial i'm looking for thank you but thing is i need to implement this on model driven app custom ribbon buttons i.e., only particular users must see the custom ribbon button, can you please help thank you!

[maggieho]

Hi Shane, good info!. I have a reset button to reset all combo boxes; reset(cboABC). When click on reset button, my gallery info/data are disappeared. Anything I missed? Thanks.

[michaelshelnutt]

Do you have a video similar to this on how to make the Button's action contingent upon a drop down item on the same page?

[triciabautista]

Hello Shane as I put the LookUp(AccessControl, Title = varUserEmail).Title on the label for testing it shows that 'powerapps encountered an internal error trying to evaluate this expression'. How can I solve this?
