    Hi Jamesb,

     

    Have you seen this blog about Creating a weather app using PowerApps, please check this link for more details:
    https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/carlosag/2017/01/10/creating-a-weather-app-using-powerapps/

     

    I configured an app according to this blog, it worked fine.
    To save the data to data source, say I have a SharePoint list B, create a connection to this list, then configure the Onvisible property of the screen as following:

    So each time the app is launched, the data will be saved to my data source List B.

     

    Please try if this works for you. Please feel free reply if you need more help.

     

    Best regards,
    Mabel Mao
