HELP! - Create New (Link to Powerapp form)

(0) Share

Report

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

I must be missing something... I have created custom New, Edit, View forms for a library within PowerApps. Now I would like to create a link to the "New Item" form from a SharePoint Page...

Some text on the page like: "Click here to submit new application" - that is linked to the "New Item" form that I customized within PowerApps.

Is this not possible??

Hi @Anonymous ,
SharePoint has a built-in new item function in the top menu. Are you wanting to select an existing record to view or edit (that is the only way you will open the form) and go to a different screen with this message?

We are migrating from 2010 to Online... In the 2010 (Old) environment, we have a lot of "Landing" pages that have links to forms on them. (Shown Below)

I am trying to re-create that same functionality in SharePoint Online... So when a user clicks on "Submit New Access Request" it takes them to the PowerApps "New Item" form that I created. Does that make sense?

Thanks so much for your assistance.

Hi @Anonymous ,
I have never used SharePoint 2010, so do not relate to it, however (and this will be really be a trial - I have never seen anyone try to do this), change your OnNew in SharePointIntegration to navigate to this page. You will then also have to change the OnSave to point to this this form, but you also have to allow for Edit mode.
The ultimate answer if the first bit works may be to forget about the top menu and do all saving from a button on the form.

Nintex Forms have this functionality (They even have a web-part to include in a page).

All On-Premise SharePoint versions I have used have had this capability. (2010/13/16)

You just highlight the text on a page, and insert a link to "newform.aspx, editform.aspx, dispform.aspx"...

For some reason, after this migration something within the list content type has become corrupted, so that's why I chose to recreate the form with PowerApps... I'm seeing the appropriate Content Type columns that were giving me issues before, but somehow PowerApps doesn't SEEM to have this capability. Unless I am majorly forgetting something, which is plausible.

@Anonymous ,
I am sorry, but you lost me at Nintex, however I can tell you that the only way you will open the SharePoint integrated form is with the built-in functions (which is why I was suggesting triggering something on OnNew) and there are no URLs for the form modes (which are actually three modes on the same form).
Have you tried the suggestion I made?

You should just use the "NewForm.aspx"
