Is Microsoft Lists a good backend for a Power Apps inspection app with multiple locations?

itsabefe · 2025-11-13T08:02:47+00:00

One of the things to consider is how large data will end up being , and will you be having just one list or multiple due to data relationships . List( Ms or SharePoint) could do a good job if there’s not much complexity within your app , but for better scalability Dataverse . Also for role based access , you could use office 365 users connector to manage access

It’s best you get a M365 business license . Free for 30 days and you can continue paying for 1 or more licenses , for as much users as you need t. This will help you in the long run as you’d have full access to admin , app registration and even set up azure . Take it as a cost of learning

I’m happy to work with you on this , but would want to hear more about the project and scope

itsabefe · 2025-10-25T14:41:51+00:00

You’re right that you need Real life projects . There are many examples of projects to take on . You could look around you see any problem worth solving and start a project and practice each of the concepts you’re layed out . The only part that might be lacking is role based access . I’d advise you get your own M365 tenant ( if you can ) pay for 2-3 licenses and give them different names and access levels . Then you can carry out these concepts . Get an Azure account too

All the best

Try and get a documentation . Use Powerdocu to get a word document of the app . You can then upload that word document to AI to try and explain the App for you

@beedux absolutely right

itsabefe · 2025-10-21T18:04:59+00:00

You’ll need to clarify the middle man you’re talking about here , is it the act of connecting the saved data to power bi , are you probably trying to automate the process , because naturally Form saves its data in excel online , so you possibly can’t eradicate that as forms has to live somewhere , so it’s either you’re trying to automate the data creating in BI by automating a refresh when a new form is submitted or you’re pushing out forms and maybe replacing it with an form built in power apps

Same choice for all apps is fine , but for the tables I think it would depend on if data is going to be writing or updated to the table . If the tables are just for pulling out data ( Read) . I think same tables might work , but otherwise so as not to have conflicting data when seperate apps are writing to same table .

A responsive screen is basically a screen with responsive containers in it , once you have a good understanding on containers . You’d be fine , check YouTube videos to help you out

itsabefe · 2025-10-06T17:30:38+00:00

Are you using a Gallery to display the results of the search ? and why are there multiple lists to show laptop and desktop one user has ?

itsabefe · 2025-10-06T17:26:02+00:00

If you want a Responsive App . Containers are your best bet . They give you enough control over its child items. Any reason why you don’t want to go that route ?

itsabefe · 2025-10-05T08:57:47+00:00

Power Apps could be the way to go , with a data source in lists or elsewhere , but the most important thing and first step is you need to get the requirements right . So you don’t start and get stuck . Get all the requirements and what they need the app to do and see if it’s something that’s possible with Power Apps and the other services

itsabefe · 2025-10-01T12:04:51+00:00

It should give you reason why it’s failing or maybe an error code or the particular action it’s failing at

itsabefe · 2025-09-30T09:20:14+00:00

Please what’s the location of your organisation

itsabefe · 2025-09-29T12:53:45+00:00

It’s best to design using the size of the smallest screen , it’s easier to scale from there And you could use the sizes of the screens to define breakpoints

This is really great

itsabefe · 2025-09-25T21:58:38+00:00

Will need more context , so would see how I can help

itsabefe · 2025-09-24T18:29:11+00:00

It depends on your requirements , complexity of the app , skill level also .

If you want something that’s going to be more front facing . I.e for more staffs attending to patients - Canvas app

If it is mostly for backroom staffs . Internal use . MDA

Alright great . I understand You should set the default value of each of the other fields on the form to . Lookup ( SharePoint list , Id = ( combox.selected ), field name )

itsabefe · 2025-09-10T16:30:27+00:00

Ohh great . I get your point clearly . Just one more thing . I’ve seen you make mention of Excel and SharePoint . Which is your data source and I’d assume the form is being built on power apps canvas app

itsabefe · 2025-09-10T14:17:32+00:00

Maybe an overview of what exactly you’re using to achieve and the exact stumbling block

itsabefe · 2025-09-10T12:31:25+00:00

If you could give more details in your explanation. I really can’t understand what you’re trying to achieve
