How to build a scheduler in Power apps?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Gfall

I would like to build an app where my associates are able to reserve workspaces with only one click or tap.  Below is a visualization: 

 
 

John Smith, signed in to his Microsoft profile, wants to reserve WB1 at 8:00 AM, so he clicks on block highlighted in red:

Now the button/box populates as the following:

Also, this would update a spreadsheet to track workspace usage and set up a outlook calendar event to remind John of his reservation and show him as busy.

 

Is this possible?  Is there anyone who could help me get started?

    Short Answer: Yes, this is possible

    Long Answer: Yes, but your interface would be difficult to build and may not be intuitive. Check out Microsoft's sample apps to get a feel for how the PowerApp's UI typically flows. I'd imagine your Uoi with a dropdown for WorkBench, then another dropdown or date/time picker for when they want to reserve it. If you create a SharePoint list of WorkBenches and the time slots available, PowerApps can automatically generate a UI for you, but again, you need to get familiar with how PowerApps would expect that to be structured.
