PowerApps and Sharepoint Offine Mode

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by AndyPowerAppNew 519

Hello.

 

I was wondering - I have a app in powerapps with Sharepoint,

 

is there like  an offline mode that all the data can be stored on the iPad/android device, so if there is a power cut can still use device for a fire register, then when power is back it will upload data to share point?

 

Something as backup if there is a power outage.

 

thank you

    This is not a simple process, but this video should get you started.

    Hi,

    I have tried this , but I can’t get to work , basically does the data need to be saved to the and android tablet. Then I button or something to Dave data then sync when there is WiFi ?

    is there is anything else can be done to convert this app to have this function ?

    Thanks

    @AndyPowerAppNew ,

    Yes - it needs to be saved to the Tablet with SaveData and then retrieved with LoadData, but as I noted this is not a simple process overall and requires other actions including saving the data as you go. There are a couple of good tutorials posted already in this thread and you need to familiarise yourself with the concepts if you want to build an app in this way.

    Hi , so it’s not just a case of converting the app I already have ? It’s more complex ?
