    I tried to create new screen form in PowerAps and successfully connected to the database (SharePointList) however after publishing it to the SharePoint the new form is not working or showing as it is.  Thanks!

    Hi Ian,

    Could you share some screenshots of what the new form looks like after you published it?

    And which exact functions you used?

    Hi Daniela,

     

    I was told that I need to edit the main connector for New, Edit, View Form in PowerApps and I dont know to find it.  So sorry very new to PowerApps please extend your patience and understanding.  Thanks!

    Okay I think I know what you are asking.

     

    You probably were looking at your SharePoint list and from here clicked 'Create PowerApp'?

    That will give you 1 screen with the edit fields representing each sharepoint list column. To get the 'new form' screen, 'detail screen' and 'browse screen' you should create your app another way:

     

    Go to PowerApps and click  on '+ Create an app'.

    Chose your layout (phone or tablet) and THEN connect to a datasource (your sharepoint list). This way, you will automatically get the 3 screens with all necessary controls.

     

    If this was not what you were asking, try it anyways because it gives you a sample app where you can lookup the functions used (e.g. to create a new form).

    If you clicked "PowerApps" and "Customize forms", SharePoint uses the same form just set to different modes. If you want to change the default in a field but only have that change apply when in edit mode, you will have to use something like If(SharePointForm1.DisplayMode = Edit, "changed default", Parent.Default). You can do this for the defaults on a card, the visibility of a card, the fill color of a card or field... anything really. You'll just have to check the display mode anywhere you want to make a change that only applies to either Edit or View.
