Hi there,

I have a question related with my last post.

Now I would like to use the chart in my HTML reports, but I can't find an answer.

Is it possible do it?

Thank you in advance.

Finally I did it by myself...

Meanwhile we are waiting to add this feature in PowerApps, I found the best way (I think) to do it...
The solution is use the Google API "Google Charts" (https://developers-dot-devsite-v2-prod.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/columnchart.html)

Using "concat" function you can get the values of each record and build the HTML to show the chart.

I hope can help.

Thank to read.

@Manarjomar , can you please explain a little bit more how to call the google chart api.

I understand the part you mention about concatenating the data to be used in the chart, but after that, how do you call the google chart api ?

If you can provide some more information, I would greately appreciate.

Thanks, Victor.

Hi @Manarjomar,

I am trying to do something similar.
Create a chart and convert it into an image and add it to PDF.
Can you pls advise how you managed to achieve this?

Does anyone else has a more detailed explanation on how to do it? I can generate an html file with the chart but how do I convert it to jpg or pdf?

@kvn_912 , when you mention that you have an html file, is that a physical file in disk or a sharepoint folder ? or is it an html control in a powerapp ?

Anyway, if you google for "powerapps html to pdf", you will get plenty of ideas, many of them related to using a powerautomate flow to convert an html content to PDF using the "Convert file using path" OneDrive action.

Also you have available the experimental function PDF(link), that can generate a PDF for instance with the information that is in a cointainer in a powerapp.
