How do I distinguish a PowerApp from a modified SharePoint Form

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 24

Hi, I want to use Flow to list all PowerApps in all environments, but I want to filter out all the Apps which are created when users modify their SharePoint List Form using PowerApps. I was looking through the metadata of the PowerApps for Admin connector, but could not find anything based on what I could distinguish the two different types of Apps.

 

Anyone any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Hilko

    Hi @Hilko 

     

    Though there is not a specifics type for SharePoint Custom Form, but all the app display names are generated by the system, format: SPlistName on SPsiteName forms

    The workaround is to add a 'Filter Arrary' action to filter out SharePoint Custom Form Apps.

    1. Add a 'Filter Arrary' action after 'Get Apps as Admin' action

    2. set From field to value from 'Get Apps as Admin' action

    3. Click advanced mode, enter the following codes:

     

    @Not(And(contains(item()?['properties']?['displayName'], 'on'),contains(item()?['properties']?['displayName'], 'forms')))

    Hi Sik,

     

    Thanks for your solution. I liked it right away and went looking into this. It seems not as easy as you suggest, because of the many languages in Europe 🙂 I have: forms, formulieren, formulare, moduli, formularios, and don't ask me to repeat the Finish name 🙂

    So, easy to miss one I would say. Hope at some point that Microsoft can add a metadata field describing the type of App, Canvas, Model Driven, SharePoint Form...

    Thanks so far, we will see how we manage this...

    Regards,

    Hilko
