Posted on by rich0087 66

I'm attempting to create a gallery which searches a specific document library. The library has videos, pdfs, and .docs. I would like to pull and view the content within powerapps. 

 

1) Is this possible?

2) Frankly i'm not even sure where to start, if somebody could point me in the right direction.

    Power Apps has no capability to look inside files stored in SharePoint to search the contents.  The only way this could be accomplished would be to use Power Automate to make an HTTP call against the SharePoint Search service and then return the results to a collection that could be displayed in a Gallery.
