CREATE NEW DATAVERSE CHOICES/OPTION SETS FROM CANVAS APPS

Demo Video

USE CASE
Using Microsoft Power Automate, PowerApps (Canvas) End-users can create new Dataverse choices to be added to the choices table in Dataverse.

 

POWER AUTOMATE FLOW
Our flow is going to be triggered from within a canvas app. We are only passing one parameter which is the Choice Item Label value: e.g. new cupcake flavor.

Using the "Perform an unbound action", we will use the InsertOptionValue action:

JSON used in the Label value field:

{
 "LocalizedLabels": [
 {
 "Label": "Text Value of our New Label",
 "LanguageCode": 1033
 }
 ]
}

    CREATE NEW DATAVERSE CHOICES/OPTION SETS FROM CANVAS APPS

    Hi, I have created a sharepoint list and a power app for individuals to be able to fill in there details so it populates the list.

     

    How can I build on the app so once it completed by individuals it moves on to set personnel to approve ?

     

    Many thanks

    There's a critical step required if you want this to work - you need to publish your customizations via this step:
