Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

Hello everyone,

I have a canvas app where it's inserted a form. I want to ask how to create a preview submission page for a user before their submission. More specifically, they input all the required fields and then click a button called preview submission, and then in the preview page, it has two options: 1: go back to edit and 2: submit the form.

Really Thanks!

Hi @sam123123123,

Creating a preview submission page in PowerApps involves a few steps. Let’s walk through the process:

Add a "Preview Submission" button on your current edit page. In the OnSelect property of this button add the naviagtion code: Navigate(PreviewScreen, ScreenTransition.Fade).

Create a Preview Screen:
Add a new screen to your app (let’s call it “PreviewScreen”).
In the “PreviewScreen,” add a Display form control.
Connect the Display form to the same data source as your Edit form (the one where users input data).
Set the Item property of the Display form to the item you want to preview (e.g., EditForm1.Updates).

Buttons for Navigation:
Add two buttons on the “PreviewScreen”:
“Go Back to Edit”: This button should take the user back to the form screen (where they can make changes).
“Submit Form”: This button confirms the submission.
Set the OnSelect property of each button accordingly:
For “Go Back to Edit”: Navigate(EditScreen, ScreenTransition.Fade)
For “Submit Form”: Submit the data (e.g., SubmitForm(EditForm1)).

User Flow:
When users click the “Preview Submission” button on the Edit form screen, navigate to the “PreviewScreen.”
Users can review the data, make any necessary changes, and then choose either option: go back to edit or submit the form.
