Hello everyone!

We will be updating the PowerApps clients this evening 1/27/16

Due to the nature of this update, and some of the items it is addressing, some users may run into a few usability issues. We would like to outline a few troubleshooting steps for you to attempt before contacting support or making a new thread about this.

1. Please make sure to update your PowerApps Client from the respective store.

2. If you are not able to open the apps you have already published, you will need to Edit the app, Re-save it to PowerApps and then open the app.

3. If you are unable to open already downloaded apps (apps downloaded in previous versions), after the client is updated, you will need to delete the app and re-download it.

4. Support for Project Siena data sources - (1) SharePoint and (2) Office 365 Preview, will both be deprecated. These data sources will automatically be deleted when a document or an app is opened from the latest version of PowerApps. Don't worry! All users will be able to create new SharePoint and Office 365 connections and re-add the respective data sources to fix the document or the app.

Thanks so much for being an early user of PowerApps , and if you need any help beyond these steps, please feel free to search for posts, or make your own.

- The PowerApps Team.

Hi

Good morning and thanks for quick updating.

1. Shall I just remove my Powerapps in my computer and install again? I don't see Update Button in Store (PowerApps)... Is the attached Image showing the Correct Version?

2. I have Office 365 subscription and use Office 2016. Does it mean I have an Office 365 account? if Yes, what kind of connection (after connected) service I can get from Office 365. Just curious.

TQ

Go to Microsoft App Store and search for Power Apps when you select it you will see the update link below the icon. Once it is done your version should be 2.0.340

I just updated to 2.0.360. Is there a more detailed changelog posted somewhere? I am wondering if a particular bug I have been following is fixed or not.

they didn't fix the show stopper #1495 for me that I was following (HTML text

does not wrap when inside a gallery) even though I filed it two months ago and

was told it would be fixed in the next update. I replied to the Kratos case

number and got "The PG has acknowledged that this is a bug but they have not

shared when for certain that it will be fixed. I can for sure communicate that

you are blocked."

THEN, I got a reply from someone else (Christoph Ponath) "What issue is she

referring to?" and I forward my original bug report from two months ago with

attached project and files.

Have heard nothing. I don't think they are working on bugs we have filed at all.

Barb,

We ARE indeed investigating the issues. I can confirm your two issues are both being looked at and actively worked on to be figured out and put into the production client.

Thanks!

when? I'm at a dead screeching halt? It's bad enough that there is no fluid

adaptive form factor and we have to still develop individual layouts for even

just Windows devices, but without HTML text in a gallery (used to similate/flow

information), PA isn't as good as Project Siena was before it was abandoned.

I received a discouraging email from Harold stating that the HTML text WRAP will NOT be fixed in the next client build either and further he didn't want to promise a date when it will be fixed. I'm totally discouraged that I can't do what I need to do and that you guys don't think it is important enough to fix (especially since it isn't even a new feature but is something that users clamored for in Project Siena, and was implemented there).

1. none of my apps would open (6 apps x 3 flavors, hours and hours of work)

2. removed/deleted from cloud

3. could not save to cloud using existing names

4. after a while I figured out that I could not use existing app names

5. I finally was able to save (well the first app I tried, who knows about the others at this point) with an altered named.

6. who tests these things and why wasn't this documented?

Hi

I can overwrite my 4 apps without fail. Maybe cloud connection to Microsoft PowerApps.

FYI: I am right now overseas to Indonesia and the internet speed is "tortoise speed slow" and yet no problem. I am not sure where are you from, most probably in the USA, and you should be much better than my situation.

No, the issue is that I selected REMOVE/DELETE so they are no longer listed.

Then when I try to save with same name, I cannot. They aren't actually removed

from the cloud.
