How to Share a PowerApp with Users from within the App?

I am packaging a PowerApp as a Solution and I wanted to be able to build in the ability for the target recipient to Share their deployed App with their Users from within the App, something like this:

1. All Users are listed from their Active Directory in a Gallery.

2. I have applied a PATCH script to Add Users from their Active Directory into a "Profile" Table - and to include other attributes, required for the App.

3. I would like to include a process (with the PATCH), so that the User Profile is added - and so that the PowerApp is Shared with them, (as a User - not a Co-Owner).

I am not sure if this is even possible - perhaps with a Flow... or an HTTPS Request..?

Thanks for any insights!

Hi @AdamGill1965 ,

You could achieve this functionality by calling a flow within the app.

Thank you - I will look into this once I am back at my desk. From your screenshot - isn't that to allocate a co-owner, rather than a user?

Hi @AdamGill1965 ,

You could also give read-only permission by this action.

I am sceptical as to what this would achieve. I am leaning towards writing a Flow to create an Entra Group, adding it to the App and then inserting users into that Group - which I think might be the "best practice" way?
