Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hello,

I have a very simple problem. I want to select a document from SharePoint Library, which is connected to the PowerApp program (independent from file-format, pdf, docx, xlsx, pptx) and visualize it on a PowerApp.

Thank you for the time😊
