Posted on by LWilcox

I have a PowerApp created for multiple users in my organization to fill out job request details and then email them out appropriately. I have an attachment field on the form. It works for any files stored locally or even iCloud, but does not work when attempting to use OneDrive for Business. When I attempt to attach a file, it does ack me for my fingerprint to authenitcate, but I get a popup saying "To protect is data, your organization manages this app. To use this app for work, sign in with your work or school account and try again".

When I try to add the connection, it asks me to choose an excel file. How do I have the app trigger logging into the current user's OneDrive? Thanks!

Hi @LWilcox,

Could you please share a bit more about your scenario?

Do you run the app within your Mobile device?

Further, do you want the app to trigger logging into the current user's OneDrive?

Please check if you have add a OneDrive for Business connection using your Organization account within your app.

If you want the end users to log in their own OneDrive for Business account when they run this shared app to attach a file from OneDrive for Business, please make sure they have installed OneDrive for Business app within their Mobile device, and they sign in it with their own OneDrive for Business account.

Best regards,

Yes, I run the app within my Mobile Device.

I do want the app to trigger logging into the current user's OneDrive.

When I try to add the OneDrive for Buisness connection, it only allows me to select a specific excel document for data extraction.

I want the end user to attach a file from their OneDrive Account. When I test this on my own mobile device, I get the error message attached even though I am logged into my OneDrive for Business account on my phone.
