Trying to create a form that can input data and have the data saved

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I'm trying to create a form, where two to threes users will be manually inputting data. Once the data is inputted, the data will be saved in the form.

 

I'm using input data box for that.

 

I looked on the internet and it does not seem to be possible to save the data once they have been it filled.

Any help would be great.

 


Cheers,

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    For adding data and save them, you could use the Form control. Please refer to:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/add-form

     

    Also, depending on what your data source is, you could use the data source to let PowerApps auto-generate the app for you by click on Creat an app > Start with your data> Select your data source.

     

    Regards,

    Hi Mona,

     

    I checked what you proposed me.

     

    I want to be able to input data on text box and have it saved. But I'm not writing to any database. It just has to be on some kind 

    of buffer but not saved on a database.

    I don't want to have it saved on a permanent basis as the data will be resetted almost on a day to day basis.

     

     

    Best,

    Andy
