Permisson Level for Editing Datasource in PowerApps

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 30

Can users with read-only access to an Excel file in the OneDrive edit records from that Excel file in a powerApp?

 

The use case: I want users to be able to use the app interface to edit data, but not edit data directly in the excel sheet.

    Hello, @micross , If they only have View permission, they will get this error if they try to update the Excel File:
