Posted on by saranp780 40

I made this app for requesting something in my Org. and collect data from user input as a collection in Power Apps.

Can I export this template as a .csv or excel file for the user to fill this form because many times the users want to add a lot of people from their list. So it is too easy.

And when they copy all data to this table so they can import it to the app (Maybe up to 100 items)

when user upload this (.csv or excel) to this app and then collect to contactInfo(My collections in Power Apps) before I patch to Sharepoint.

 

Help me, please.

    Hi @saranp780 ï¼Œ

    You can store your csv/Excel file in a cloud location, like OneDrive for Business, then you can add this Excel file as a data source for your Power App, and create a collection based on this datasource. 

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/connections/connection-excel 

    This time, if a user wants to fill a lot of records, you can share the file link to this users. After completing, just go to your app and refresh the datasource(this Excel file), and re-create your collection.
