PowerApps customized SharePoint form issue

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 9

Hi all,

 

I would like to use PowerApp customized forms in SharePoint list and I am facing following issue: after the customization all new items created in the list pop up as items created on behalf of Connection account. Is there a chance to get real Created By/Modified By accounts insted of showing the connection account?

 

Many thanks,

Andrii

    PowerApps always works in the conext of the logged in user

    It does not run under context of any other account

    So created by and modified by will be the person using the PowerApp and entering data

    RezaDorrani, thanks for prompt reply!

     

    I just tried to remove the service account from the data sources in PowerApps and this helped, all new items were crested by showing righ creators, I think the service account assigned in the data sources caused that issue. Anyway it looks good now. Thank you!

    I know this is a bit old.  But what you do you mean "remove service account".  I have this exact same issue and its not clear what you did here to resolve the issue.
