I have an app that users have access to a data source via PowerApps in a gallery ( a list of filenames). I am trying to find any way of selecting the file name in the gallery and having an action skip the whole file explorer select a file UI. It seems that selecting a file in file explorer creates the appres://blobmanager/id data which I assume is PowerApps way of associating a file it is interacting with. I have looked at PowerAutomate but don't see any way of getting this data without someone physically selecting that file through the file explorer interface. Does anyone know a way to "Load" the file via a control in PowerApps that ends up establishing that appres://blobmanager/id data? The gallery info has all the file properties (name, path, type, size, etc..) that I think would be needed to identify the file if there is a way to accomplish this.
Thanks,

I have a very similar solution that I'm trying to develop. I'm so disappointed to see no one jumped in here with an answer. Did you figure anything out for this?
