How to build πŸ“… Calendar Control in Power Apps within minutes

Hello everyone,

 

Looking for a Calendar Control in Power Apps? Then this step-by-step tutorial video on how to build a Calendar control in PowerApps within minutes is for you. I will showcase a simple way to create a Calendar control in Power Apps using the Calendar Screen Template & connect it to SharePoint List. This out of the box screen template in power apps gives us a calendar control experience connected to Outlook calendar.

The Calendar control is built using multiple galleries and has all the logic in place to calculate days in each month, 1st and last date of the month, move calendar control between months and more.

I will show how we can simply take the components of the calendar control from this screen template and build our own calendar control. I will show how to connect the Calendar View (control) to a Gallery connected to a SharePoint List. The Calendar view will highlight events for specific dates.

I will also show how to add a nested gallery in the calendar control itself to showcase all the events for a given date range, color code the Calendar items, connect the calendar to a form control & more.

 

Video covers the following:

βœ… Build Calendar in Power Apps

βœ… Calendar Screen Template

βœ… Connect Calendar to SharePoint List

βœ… Create nested gallery in Calendar Gallery to show multiple events per day.

βœ… Color code Calendar items

βœ… Calendar from SharePoint Data

    How to build ?? Calendar Control in Power Apps within minutes

    Hi Reza, great video! 

    is there a way to use this Calendar control as a Input Form? I would like to create a calendar where the user can select 20 Dates... these picked dates should be stored in a SharePoint List. 

     

    Best regards!

    Hi Reza, I have followed all of your steps using an excel sheet as my data source named "Table 33". As you can see, I am not getting any errors, but the circles are not showing up as visible on my calendar. How do I fix this?  I have the Text for the Title in the gallery set to Day(DateAdd(_firstDayInView,ThisItem.Value,Days)) like you explained.

    Hi Reza,
    greetings from Buenos Aires!
    Your videos are really great! but I can find the way you connected the calendar to a sharepoint list.
    do you have an example?
