Hi,
I have a requirement to get US dollar value & Other currency automatically to PowerApps Canvas App from Internet and refresh daily.
Request you help me achieve this requirement.
Thanks & Regards
Hey @knsrinath
For this I would recommend to build a power automate workflow that runs daily, get the exchange rates and feed a sharepoint list for the current day date. Then the powerapps check that sharepoint lsit for the current day date entry and grab the corresponding exchanges rates.
To get exchange rates from api you can check for example https://openexchangerates.org/ that provides free plan.
Is there any way to get a current exchange rate from an api without having to create a custom connector or use the HTTP premium connector both of which require additional PowerPlatform licensing?
Well one possible way would be to have the exchange rates in an excel file on some sharepoint document library or onedrive that is updated either manually each day or with some script runnign on a local machine. Then your powerapp just display the information about the exchange rates from that excel file.
