How to import .msapp file?

(2) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 181

Hello,

 

I was reading the blog post here: https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/ux-patterns-expander-control-with-expand-collapse-animation/ 

 

and he included an .msapp file so we could preview the app and test it out, however I am unable to import an .msapp and converting to a .zip did not resolve it.

 

Is there something I'm missing?

    On PowerApps Studio, you can select "File" -> "Open" -> "Browse", and then select the .msapp file, as shown below.

    Thank you! I was in the Powerapps homepage/admin area, I needed to click " + Create an app" to get to the Open > browse portion I was missing.

     

    Appreciate it very much!

    I had trouble finding the File-Open-Browse as of Oct 2022, so thought I'd post that after creating and naming a new canvas app, click the three ellipses and then you'll find the option to Open.

    How do you do this in 2024? Since MS "wisely" removed all these UI Elements.

    @CD00131 It's under the ellipse now.
