SharePoint form viewer from within a canvas app

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by markikav 108

Hi PowerApps Community

 

Is it possible to show a record from a SharePoint form (in this case its an InfoPath form) in a viewer or HTML control perhaps from within a canvas app?

I don't want to have to recreate the form in the canvas app because we won't do anything with the data, its needed just to check data and then the app does the next steps in the process and utilises some of the data as a datasource from the list.

 

So I would have a gallery where the SharePoint record is selected, then I would have something on that screen where the user would just see the form as its presented in SharePoint.

 

Thanks

Mark

    I don't think that you can display an InfoPath form in PowerApps. However, it is super easy to create a PowerApps form from SharePoint data.

    Yes I know but its also work to organise it and a lot of controls I don't want in the app.

    if there was a viewer that you could utilise the sharepoint url (which has the ID) it would be much easier just to display the form , which won't be edited anyway.

     

    Alternative is they just flick between browser tabs but users complain about this !!!
