    Hi @MrChaix 

     

    I would use the custom connector from the COE template to pull that information daily from the Office365 Admin Center's Audit Logs. Then you could have a Flow that uses that and sends you a mail every time a new user creates and App.

     

    Please take a look at the article, there really is a lot of great information and free resources there for you to utilize,

     

    Kind Regards,

    The COE would be a good choice, but the Audit Logs where you are pulling the information from have the ability to create an alert that will email you a few minutes after a new App is created.  The COE will send you less email because you will get a daily report.  But if you need to know in a more timely basis go to the Audit Log in Security and compliance center, create a search, and then have it convert that search into an Alert.

    Thanks @Pstork1 , that's a good point!

    I'm trying to get as many people aware of the COE as possible - there's a wealth of info that some people may have missed Cat Happy

    I totally agree.  The COE is a great resource.  In this case it sounded like the questioner wanted something closer to real-time.  So I wanted to suggest the alternative approach.

    Hi @MrChaix ,

    Could you please share a bit more about your scenario?

    Do you want to be informed via email when a new app is created in your PowerApps?

     

    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, I agree with @iAm_ManCat 's thought almost. I think the custom connector in PowerApps could achieve your needs.

     

    In addition, please also check and see if the following blog (MS Flow solution) would also help in your scenario:

    Best regards,

    Thank you for your answers.

    I used a flow template. It informs me of the apps created during the week.

    You can find it in the examples.

    @MrChaix  would you be able to share a screenshot of the trigger and actions that you used? I'm looking to do the same thing and I've gotten as far as importing the core components, finding the custom connector but I'm not sure what to use as a trigger and subsequent steps. Even just a list of the trigger and actions I think I could figure out the rest.

     

    Thank you,
