Are there APIs to manage or query a powerapp? Start one, return users or owners, return variable data, etc?

I'm essentially trying to make my life easier thinking there may be a way to build a dashboard that can help view and manage powerapps running in our organization.

I'm looking for information such as:

  • Can I start or stop a power automate flow with a API call?
  • Can I return users or owners for powerapps with an API call?
  • Can I peek into variables or collections of a running powerapp with an API Call?
  • Other similar ideas, basically are there APIs I can tap into to work with PowerApps and Power Automate?
  • Any info will be appreciated. Thanks.

    Yes. There are several options, but you probably want to start here:

    Please do! That API is still in preview so lots of folks would love to hear what experiences you have with it!
