Hi everyone
Is there a quick way to include a collection (including data) in the design by default, so that the first time the app is launched on a device it has this data without making any data source or API calls?
Thank you everyone
Hi @DavesTechTips,
You always need to use the Collect() function to create a collection within your app.
Collect( DataSource, Item, ... )
You could set the OnVisible property of the first screen of your app with above formula so that it will create a collection as long as the first screen load.
For your reference:

Thank you.
Now with the onstart function on the first screen of the app, this makes it even more viable.
