Teams app creating - coding

Is there any restrictions using power app through Teams?

 

Have tried to copy some of the videos and example in this forums, but no code is working, also used a very simple table a, but it still will not work, maybe I am missing something.

 

The web version will not allow me to create tables..."You are missing the necessary privilege to create tables in this environment", also there is some difference, "Text input" > "Text box". " Drop down Box" > "Combo Box. No Model driven app in teams

Thanks

    Take a look at this learning path. Get started with Microsoft Dataverse for Teams - Learn | Microsoft Docs

    There is a modified Power Apps design client inside the Teams environment.  The primary difference is that it lets you use a modified version of Dataverse when building Apps inside Teams without additional licensing.

    Hi,

    Thanks for reply and info, I have followed the above guide, but still have issues with editing filtered and searches.

    Can you be more specific about the issues you are having and I will try to help.

    Thanks, for example,

    I have tried to have a search box from a gallery using the following formula on the gallery:

     

    Search(Equipment Lists, SearchBox8.Text, "crb97_name")

     

    This will not work

     

    I also have tried a cascading combobox by creating 2 small dataverse tables, adding 2 combo boxes

     

     with the following formula in the first box

     

    Filter(ETS, Description = ComboBox6.Selected."crb97_Description")

     

    No joy here either

    For the Search try using Value instead of Text

     

    Search(Equipment Lists, SearchBox8.Value, "crb97_name")

     

    For the Filter.  What kind of field is Description?  The code looks like it should work.  When you edit the fields on the first Combo box is Description listed as one of the fields?

    Hi, Thanks for the help, for the Search changing the .text to value worked but only on data that was imported as excel could not get it to work on a database table.

     

    for filter, please see pic

    I'm not sure what you mean that you could only get it to work on "data that was imported as excel could not get it to work on a database table."  Could you clarify?  Do you mean it isn't searching data that was entered into the column?

    If I use this data source 

    KT61_0-1653570932629.png

     
    this formula work, Search(Table2,SB.Value,"Description","Area","Equipment Name")
     
    but if I try to use this data source,

    and change the formula to 

    Search(Equipment Lists, SearchBox8.Value, "crb97_name")

    it doesn't work

    Thanks

    Two things. 

    1) since the data source has a space in the name make sure it shows up in Intellisense.  I think it should be 'Equipment Lists' in single quotes

    2) Again, check intellisense but I don't think the prefix is used anymore when addressing columns.  Try just Name for the column.

    Hi, the search is working now, you were correct! I checked the wording.

    I will try the cascading combo boxes next, thanks again
