Hi everyone,
I’m working on a Power Apps model-driven app, and I’ve received a requirement where:
Sometimes, strategy plans may last longer than 5 years. To accommodate this, the user should be able to create a new version of an existing Office Strategy Plan by copying the current record and then updating the fields they need.
I want to explore the best way to implement this feature, preferably without using JavaScript, and ideally using low-code/no-code tools like Power Automate or Quick Create forms.
-
A user-triggered way (e.g., command bar button) to duplicate a record
-
Ability to copy all relevant fields from the selected record
-
Option for the user to edit the new record (e.g., version number, dates)
I noticed that the Command Bar (modern) only gives options like Run JavaScript and there's no "Run formula" (Power Fx) as only for Canvas App available. Has anyone handled a similar “clone” or “create new version” use case? Would love to hear your suggestions or approaches — whether via Power Automate, embedded canvas app, or other tricks.
Thanks in advance!
