I've been working on the tablet layout of a table with 140 fields. It is taking forever since I have to individually modify each datacard. I'll manually complete this one but I'm looking for ways to automate this. I looked at using Selenium. I use it a lot for automating web tasks. I just don't think it would be reliable. My other idea was to directly edit the powerapp Entities.json file (append .zip to app and unzip). I loaded the file in Visual Studio and reformatted it. It seems very doable. I've never worked with JSON parsers so I'll need to learn that.
Question:
Has anyone done this?
If so, what is your experience?
Hi @mogulman,
140 fields is a lot. Is this table configured to be relational to other tables? If not, I am thinking that restructuring your data into multiple tables with identifiers and relationships will be a best practice to resolve this.
Mr. Dang
Thanks for the response. It is a relation db using SQL Server. It tracks a very complex process so a majority of the fields are bit (boolean). Dividing it into multiple tables does't solve the problem. I would just have to format 2 screens.
