Excellent video, much easier to follow than a lot of videos for power apps. I am wondering if you might do a video on how to do a calendar using power apps?

Thats great explanation on Power Apps usage and cases, Can we implement NLP or commentary kind of logic in Power Apps and then Integrate with Power BI desktop & Service together where user can have options to select and commentary both but that POP UP should comes once the user open the report, not everytime, As far I have explored we cannot control that part in Power Apps, I am not sure. Thanks again

Great videos, thanks for posting. Can you show the naming convention for the file structure in your Excel doc that enables you to automatically display the images? I can't seem to get mine to work, and I'm sure it's a simple fix, but I'm stuck sadly.

Thank you for these great videos, I'm really hoping you could lead me to the right direction with this following problem.
I'm stuck on one step of linking PowerApp to my List.


I have set the format for Column G in my List_A to lookup, which is linked to another List_B to bring in associated record data into Column H, I and J from List_B.

Now, I'm trying to create a PowerApp for users to enter values into this Column G of List A, so Column H, I and J would automatically be filled with information pulled from List_B, based on user input in my PowerApp (Colum G).

The problem I ran into is, the field that I've added in my PowerApp for Colum G can only be a dropdown choice or a view only field. It does not allow user to manually input a custom value, or link to another field based on Gallery.selected.'field name'.

Is there anyway to solve this issue?
Thank you

Couldn't sign up for the Power Apps Developer Plan. Does your employer have to be a Microsoft Partner or something else?
