Cannot share an app with a user with an Apostrophe in name or email?

Posted on by simonkelsh 6

Hi, has anyone had this where you cannot share an app with a user with an apostrophe in their email address or name?

 

I have tried various ways of copy and pasting the name, or email, and the user isn't returned, but they definitely have a 365 account, I can share to them in SharePoint, just not Powerapps.

    Hi @simonkelsh ,

     

    According to your description, it is easy to achieve.

    The point is to use ‘’ instead of ‘ .

     

    I’ve made a test for you:

     

    1\ This is my test account.

    2\ Share my app to this account:
