Hi @Tejaswini1234 ,

Do you want to detect the owner of a SP List within a canvas app?

If you want to detect the owner of a SP List within a canvas app, I afraid that there is no way to achieve your needs in PowerApps currently.

Currently, there is no functions supported within PowerApps to get the Owners of a SP list. If you would like this feature to be added in PowerApps, please submit an idea to PowerApps Ideas Forum:

Best regards,

Hi @Tejaswini1234 ,

Based on the needs that you mentioned, I afraid that there is no way to achieve your needs in PowerApps currently.

As an alternative solution, you could consider save the Display name and email address of all the Owners of your SP List into a separated SP list (or other data source, e.g. Excel table) manually. The data structure of the separated List should be as below:

Then within your app, you could check if the current login user is a owner of your SP list data source using the following formula:

If( User().DisplayName in 'YourSeparatedOwnerList'.DisplayName, true, /* <-- Is a Owner */ false /* <-- Is not a Owner*/ )

Or

If( User().Email in 'YourSeparatedOwnerList'.Email, true, /* <-- Is a Owner */ false /* <-- Is not a Owner*/ )

Please consider take a try with above alternative solution, then check if the issue is solved.

Best regards,
