Power Apps Dynamic Text Strings | Documents | Prompts | Paragraphs #PowerApps

In this video, I'm going to show you a cool trick with Power Apps. Imagine you need to create paragraphs of text, like in documents or emails, and you want to make it super easy to customize them dynamically. Well, I'll teach you how to do just that! We'll use placeholders in a special way to make text boxes appear exactly where we want them, and then we'll make them automatically fill in with the right information. This can be handy for lots of things, like making your prompts for GPT or adding dynamic content to your documents. I'll guide you through each step. If you are looking to populate documents with dynamic content via Power Automate, you may also want to check out my previous video included below.

So smart, i was building the same thing 2 weeks back, had the exact same set up but i used substitute to replace the key words with real values. This is going to transform my app!! thanks!

Now a prompt library using OpenAI Assistants with every user logging their own conversations using saved chat ID's outputting JSON which is used to populate SharePoint/Dataverse/SQL/etc using this method would be great!

Any reason for not using string interpolation?
