How to display an Excel file in Power Apps

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by EmilioRoqueta69 565

Hi,

 

I have an inventory Excel file in a SharePoint library that I need to show like a read-only table in a canvas Power App.

My app uses Dataverse on Teams.

This Excel is updated weekly.

How can I show this information in Power Apps.

In Teams I have no dataflows.

 

Thanks in advance

    Hi @EmilioRoqueta69 

     

    I would suggest to use Power Automate to achieve this.

    Via Power Automate use a schedule flow to retrieve and store the data in Dataverse.

    Then you retrieve the data into Powerapps via a collection and use the data in the app.

    @EmilioRoqueta69 

    So long as your Excel data is formatted in a table, you can connect to it from your Teams app using the Excel Online Business connector. You can then display the data in a read-only way using a gallery control.
