Launch canvas app from another canvas app - Navigate Param Not Working

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi!

I want to launch a canvas app from another canvas app. 

 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/functions/function-param#from-a-canvas-app-to-a-canvas-app

 

I am using the following for my OnSelect:  Launch("https://web.powerapps.com/apps/8310d0b3-b339-4ef8-9d07-4c55a675c1ec?tenantId=1e3e71be-fcca-4284-9031-688cc8f37b6b",{Navigate: "Screen2"}, LaunchTarget.Replace)

 

I am able to launch the app, but the app navigates to Screen1, not Screen2.  What do I need to do to get the app to navigate to successfully to Screen2?

    Read through your sited link a little more...it is not stating that if you put a "Navigate" in your parameters that the called app will automatically navigate to that screen.  It is stating that you can pass a parameter to another app.  What that app does with it is up to you.  They used a poor choice of a parameter name - Navigate!!

     

    However, in your second app, you would set the StartScreen property of your app to:  If(Param("Navigate") = "Screen2", Screen2)

     

    I hope this is helpful for you.
