Hello everyone, I want to create a power app for my organization, but all the data base is built in Microsoft Access, I´m having troubles with connecting to power apps hence I don´t find the right tool to connect them. Could anyone tell me if I can connect power apps with Access? Thanks

There is no built in way to connect Power Apps with a Microsoft Access database.
You'd need to use a 3rd party connector like this one. There would be a charge for this, and you would also need a premium Power Apps license to use such a connector.

The alternative is to migrate your Access database 'backend' to Dataverse. Once your data is in Dataverse, you can connect easily to it from Power Apps.

I am a rookie, so here goes... would you still have to have a premium power apps license?
It seems like it would be a custom table, thus requiring a premium license. I am currently looking for a way to get around the premium Dataverse connector issue.
Thanks for an answer, in advance!

Hi @CodeMonkey317 - yes, you would still need a premium license to use this connector.
