    You mean create an app in PowerApps and then deploy it straight to Android or iOS?

    No I mean I created the apps but not in the solution. I want to add the apps into the solution. Is there any way?

    Hi @NurNina ,

    Do you want to add the existing cavnas app into your Solution?

     

    Based on the needs that you mentioned, I think the Solution functionality in PowerApps could achieve your needs. Please consider take a try with the following steps:

    1. Open your specific Solution in your PowerApps:

    2. Click "Add Existing" -> "App" -> "Canvas app":

    3. Within the opening panel, switch to "Outside solutions" tab, then find your specific created canvas app, sekect it, then click "Add" button:

    Hi @NurNina ,

    Is the Solution that you mentioned a Default solution in your PowerApps?

     

    Currently, the "Add Existing" functionality is not supported in the Default Solution in PowerApps. You could consider add a custom solution in your PowerApps, then try it again, check if the issue is solved.

     

    In addition, you could also consider click "New"->"App"->"Canvas app" option to create a new canvas app into your Solution.

     

    Please also make sure that the Solution that you mentioned is not an managed solution. If it is a managed solution, you may not add or create canvas apps into this Solution.

     

    Best regards,
