PowerApps nearing half of our Auckland based SharePoint work
- Posted by: Hayden Sinclair
I have noticed a significant increase in enquiries from my Auckland customers about wanting to use or create PowerApps. Since Microsoft introduced editing PowerApps within SharePoint lists I find I am spending almost half my time either creating custom list based PowerApps or more advanced mobile PowerApps linking two or more SharePoint lists together.
The next step for Microsoft must surely be to add PowerApps customizations for document library metadata.
If you are planning on creating your own PowerApps, remember to keep in mind that the end goal isn’t to make independent PowerApps that have no relationship to your other corporate data. The goal is to ultimately link all your like data together in PowerBi so you can create meaningful Business Intelligence from you content. You can only do this with planning and making sure you reuse Site Columns across all of your PowerApp lists.
If you are not sure what I am talking about, or how to achieve this, best give me a call now rather than a year down the track, when you find out!
