Confirm exit message

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi, I've found the need to place a confirm exit blocker in my powerapp. The only problem is that although I can switch it on and off, the message it says is uneditable -

I've double checked it's the correct version that's running but no matter what it only uses the default text...

Anyone managed to get it working?

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    Are you using the Exit() function?

    This message will only trigger if using this and when not inside the editor.

    If you try close the tab, the standard message from your browser will pop up (as per your picture)

    Hi @Anonymous,

    The message you post is a generic message from the browser. If you run Exit() function or swipe to switch to a different app in Power Apps Mobile, the confirmation dialog box will appear.

    Please check the situation that PowerApps confirmation dialog box appears. Reference: ConfirmExit 

    • Running the Exit function.
    • If the app is running in a browser:
      • Closing the browser or the browser tab in which the app is running.
      • Selecting the browser's back button.
    • If the app is running in Power Apps Mobile (iOS or Android):
      • Running the Launch function.
        The Launch function doesn't trigger the dialog box in a browser because another tab opens so that data isn't lost.
      • Swiping to switch to a different app in Power Apps Mobile.
      • Selecting the back button on an Android device.

    Note: In a browser, the confirmation dialog box might appear with a generic message from the browser.
