Company pulse template app not working

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 297

I want to use some of the features in the 'Company Pulse App' that is provided as a template. Unfortunately it seems to be out of date and not finished. 

The instructions say;

step 6. add 'shared news' doesnt work as there is no default list called this. Sharepoint news is typically created in SitePages

then I found this on the Loading timer OnEnd

 

 //Begin Sample SharePoint list items"

 //End Sample SharePoint list items

 

this just seems to be a sample collection that would not pull in the news from the instructions. 

 

has anyone got this working?

    Hi @nick9one1 

     

    You must first create your news site in Sharepoint and give the name that they give you as an example shared news to your site and then you add the sharepoint connection to the app and you will be able to see this site in the list.

    The app does not have the site displayed by default, you must build it yourself as a source to feed your news

    the Wiki no longer seems to be available as an app in Sharepoint. Also the Sharepoint app store is closing on 1st July.

    Also, the app seems to be built with an old template that is no longer compatible with the new powerapps editor. 
    Things like 'data sources' is missing from the left navigation. OnStart isn't available as a property in the app
