Hello there,

I built some apps using Powerapps. Now I'm trying to create a kind of a portal for all the apps to be accessible in one place - a tree view like list of all those apps for the user to choose from it. I started using containers to get my screen layout - one container on the left (cntLeft for the list of the apps) and another one next to it (cntMain) for showing/launching the actual app. I'm not sure how to launch those apps in the cntMain container. Tried with the launch function but cannot get it working as supposed - it launches the app in new tab or in the same tab full screen - I still want to have the list of the apps on the left when launching one of the apps. What is the best way to achieve this? Thank you in advance.

BR, Dean

Thank you very much. I'll take a look at the Power pages section. That also explains why I couldn't acomplish what I wanted 🙂

Re: Powerapps portal app

Hello, @MrC00per, what you are trying to accomplish is not possible at this time which is to embed a canvas app inside another one, you can launch another Canvas app from a Canvas app by calling the Launch function.

I would recommend creating a Power Pages website and there you can embed you canvas apps and organize them the way you want.
