Build PowerApps for Teams with Microsoft Dataverse 

Yo Reza!! Amazing video!! Thank you for being on top of this new feature and sharing!!

No words! as always point to point ... steps by step explanation about the brand new concept Project OAKDALE :)

Super video. Thanks for sharing 👍!

I’ve learnt so much about Power Automate from your videos hoping to learn more about Power Apps too!

Excellent. Covering all aspects of data entries. I love it

Hats off Raja, your all videos are very informative..it's seems you're doing lots of efforts to explain small concept.

Love it, very helpful thanks. Would love to see some more on formatting in Oakdale, as some objects such as radio buttons have very different (and confusing) options for formatting.

Thanks Reza great Video

It's really very helpful with great content. Please try to release more videos on powerapps as well

I watched countless of clips. Very frustrated to the point about to give up. I watched two of yours and my hope comes back. Thanks!!! Subscribed!!! If possible, please make a series of full flesh, relational tables, etc. (in Teams, please) app. I only have access to my school MS Teams and thankfully it provides Power Apps (with table creation!!!) at no extra cost so I was able to follow your tutorial. Thanks!!!

NICE VIDEO THANKS

It looks great!

Hey Reza, Just started watching your videos and they are really good! Sounds like I'm not the only one who appreciates the time you put into these, they are such a huge help. I am having trouble getting past the "Give us a minute screen". It just keeps loading and loading and I can't seem to get past setting up the new environment. I uninstalled then reinstalled Teams with no luck, have you heard of anyone else having this issue?

Excellent video and explanation Reza. Thank you for the video. Few Questions 1. Where is the data [tables] stored? 2.Will these apps be available in Personal Productivity environment? 3.What about DLP policies as these apps are not part of any Environment with power platform? 4.Can these apps be maned from power platform admin center and are they part of the analytics reports? 5. Any possibility to use the data source [tables[ across apps in different teams?

Great video as always! Thanks so much! Are the dynamics 365 tables etc. available as in model based apps?

Reza, thank you so much , as usual it's a great tip for this season. Perfect timing. And please, I ditto to others below, can you work on licensing content? Like a video that gives us a very clear insight about the licensing , what are plain free features that come with the base M365 subc? for each PP products.(power plaftrom) , teams? premiums? ..With examples: like Microsoft 365 business standard vs others...Thanks bro.

Hello Reza, I am building an app along the lines of what you have done here. I am making a request app for supervisors to request computers and folders for new employees. The question is I need two columns that get the user name and time from the person that is logged into their MS account in teams. I want this to auto populate. So glad I found your videos as they have been such a great help..Thank you for what you do!

Very nice video. Thank you for posting it. This video gave great start on the oakdale. I have multiple questions: Can we publish the same app to multiple teams or make it available org level? Can we see versioning of the app? Who can edit the app in the team? Does the user need to be Team owner or member to edit?

Great intro to Oakdale, thanks @Reza Dorrani! Is there a way to do a repeating table embedded in the main form, like one could do with InfoPath? This would be for an app like an expense report, where you have a main form with fields like name and expense period, and an area containing with an expandable list of expense report line items?

Very nice! Can we use the same app for another team? or we would have to build the same app again for another team?

Hi Reza, Amazing video. one quick one can we reuse the table created for an App in a team with other team Apps?

Hi Reza, thanks to all your suggestions i made an app to search project documents across different libraries. Because of the delegation issue in SharePoint i could only use the Startswith option in my filter to search by document title. However when searching across tens of thousands of documents, sometimes it is not easy to remember how the title of a document starts, hence the search function would work better. I have transferred all information i need in Dataverse for Teams and now the search function works great, however, is there a way to combine the 2-3 search textbox so that the search can be limited to the selected 2-3 keywords?

Thank you very much. Had a lot of content I wanted to know. can the approvers be defined from a table or another form. Rather than hard coding the emails in the function. Thanks

Reza, your videos have been very important in my learning curve. Thanks, you've taught me so much. I built an app where I'm restricting users to see only the items they've created and not other user's items (method: if their User().email is not in the manager_access SP list email column, they can only see the items they created). Does Dataverse have a way to hide the database tables from users while still keeping the app functional?

Hi Reza, Another great video :) Do you have any idea why quite a few of the Properties are missing for Labels, Buttons, Date Pickers in PowerApps for teams? For example a Label does not seem to have any of the Padding, Disabled Color, Pressed Color or Tool Tip Properties when added from the side toolbox. I have noticed that some of the labels already built into the Inspection and Employeee Idea's Templates do have the full range of properties. A bit of frustration is the new date picker as it will not allow me to change the background fill, so I am stuck on the Default Teams Background Fill color.

Hi Reza, I tried to add guest account to team to check the guest privileges for Project Oakdale, I found the guest user was unable to see the recored added by any other users, he was able to see the records added by him only, is this the normal behaviour? is there anyway to override it? thank you

Great post. I got a question, Can external users use these apps as Member? Thank you

I'm surprised there isn't a Person column like there is in SharePoint. Any idea if that will be added?

thank you, if i create a table in dataverse for a teams channel, can i use this table in another application for another channel ?

Hi Reza.. Great Video👍 Thank You. One question is what if I have to implement the same app for another team? How can we deploy/migrate from One team to other Team?

Question related to dataverse - a feature which became GA today, 03/21/2021 - Does custom API for Dataverse- require premium licensing or is it a standard feature licensed usage

Hi Reza, your videos are brilliant, thank you. I have a problem, where I would like to utilize PowerApps in Teams, using Dataverse. I need a column that can select multiple directory users for an incident form, which would populate those users into another table, with a reference column to associate the user(s) with an incident. Maybe some use of "add additional user" button after selecting one user... It appears this isn't officially possible. It would be great if you know, or can think of a workaround for this. As I imagine that it will be a popular requirement. Thanks in advance :)

How is data imported into and exported from the Common Data Service environment that powers Project Oakdale? Could you do a video that covers this process?

Is it possible to export the data to excel or load it into Power BI?

Hi Reza, If we create an app in teams from scratch, We have to take care responsive or it is responsive in nature?

Are you geolocation features coming to Power Apps for Teams?

Hi! Reza, I am not able to find "Default" and "Reset" control for Textbox Input box in PowerApps for Team...Is it a bug or its not available?

Well explained! Do you know how this is going to be licensed? Per user per app?

How to use the XL file table stored in Teams folder to create the Power App application ?

Greta video Reza, Can third party colleagues access (co-workers from different companies than the hosting company) and update the CDS by adding/editing the App in Teams. I know 3rd parties can access our team sites but we always seem to struggle retrieving data from colleagues who do not work for us.

Can you make it a bit more difficult to understand and follow? :) Thank you Reza.

Reza, I'm wondering how the apps you create in Teams relate the the apps you create in make.powerapps.com. I don't see the one I started in Teams on the main Power Apps site. I'm assuming this isn't possible. Is it possible to create an app on the main site and share it in Teams? If I have a main app that works with a large amount of relational SQL data and I only need one of the Teams to work with some of the data in a small part of the app do I create a separate app in Teams and link it to the SQL data?

Is there any way to import data to the Table/Dataflex you have created instead of typing one by one?

Out of context query - If you can Help.... I have one query if you can guide with your great knowledge In power apps.. I have developed an Attendance App. My query is for all the staff to punch in their in and out time we need to give them edit access option to backend Excel file on OneDrive through Power Apps for saving the records. To maintain the integrity of our attendance data, How can we prevent them from going to OneDrive and making any changes to the datasource Excel file. I wish there could be some workaround to prevent the staff members to edit the excel file from onedrive...

So this is going to create a new environment for Power Apps inside Teams other than the default environment I am currently using for my Power Apps apps?

Can I add my existing power apps that I have already created through Power Apps

Nice video very helpful, thanks. One question, if i want to connect to a Sharepoint list how can i do it, can i do within the Oakdale environment? Thanks .

How about licensing for external users....? My Intention is to create an app, where my external contractors can also feed in the progress status. Will I be able to give access to my external contractors to this app.

Hi Reza, is there a way to capture Microsoft Team Meeting Attendance automatically and save it to sharepoint !

Yezzzzz +++
