Hello Dear,

 

I am creating a new app but in order to use correctly I need to solve 2 main issue. 

 

1. Copy List in sharepoint

               I create a site, then I added a template list. It has 15 column and 100 row ( column 2 has many explanation in cells)

               I dont want to change something on template list. Thus I need to copy with different name in same site, but before copy I want to define name of file in app. And when I copied that template, all informations in the rows should copy also new file.

2. Add datasource this new file in app automatically 

              For example, with one button, I solved first issue, second issue is to use this list in app. Thus I want to add that new list as an datasource in powerapps.

 

 

Is it possible to do this solution ? Where I will use it I want to explain also. 

 

I am accepting machine, for each machine I have a machine number, for each acceptance ı have a control checklist. I created control checklist in list. It is template. For each machine, ı want to write of new machine in a text entry, then when I click button, app should copy template list with that name, and it should add that list as datasource on app. 

 

I need to every help from you

 

Thanks in advance
