PowerApps Deep Linking 

A nice bonus would be that JSON formatting script so I can use it in my SharePoint area, but yer, great vid.

A Life-Saver AS ALWAYS April... THANK YOU! Not to hi-jack the video, just a 2022 version update/helpful tip for anyone reading this... Put your formula in the StartScreen vs OnStart and leave out Navigate from the formula. Here's an example: If(Param("DeepLink") = "Contact", ContactForm, Welcome) Thanks again April... WE APPRECIATE YOU!!!

April you are just amazing. Period. No fluff. Just clear, concise, and invaluable information. Thank you!!!

You made this look so easy! Phew, I had a long night but you definitely helped me out with this one. I spent quite a bit of time trying to sort out how to get the DeepLink to work with my variable set to change the forms mode. I’m still pretty new to all this but I finally figured out how to get the logic to bring the user to the specified screen & update the form mode to the appropriate mode. So thankful!

This is one of the most useful videos I have watched! Thank you so much for explaining the concept so well!

Seriously this is a top top video - well done April. I was chatting with a colleague yesterday about this topic. I was sure I saw it somewhere.

Thanks for sharing April, very useful

AWESOME!!! This is what I looking for!

April, If I could give you a hundred thumbs up I would. This video help me find the solution I was looking for. Thanks!!!

This is exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to use QR codes to start a PowerApp on your mobile and pass some parameters. This video def will help me doing that. Thank you for great instructional videos!

Hi April, thanks for the great video.. this sort of solved my hunt for a solution on similar grounds..thank you!.. i also like the conditional formatting on your sharepoint list

Exactly what I need next in the project I am working on. Excellent

This is better than Shane Young's video on Deep Linking. I actually get it. Thanks

Wonderful video. Subscribed.

Excellent! As always.

Thanks April for help 🙏🙏🙏.

Gosh you made it look so easy. Thank you so much!

That is freakin' brilliant. Your video just helped me solve one problem and offered a new solution inside inside a list. Thank you!

Thank you. This may just solve a problem I have which is a weekly flow that creates a new excel sheet for 29 different sites. In each sheet is a list of staff payroll entries for the previous week being made ready for upload. Sites must check their entries and edit or delete errors before the master file is uploaded into SAP. Until now I was struggling with an easy way to fix their entries. using this I should be able to create a hyperlink to the App where they are all entered, filter to that record and they can take what action is appropriate. Awesome!

Thanks for this video. It came at the right time!

Great Video. Thank you

So well explained April.

Super useful ! Thanks April.

April, Great informative vid!! Thank you!

Great video, you explained it very good, thanks!

Ok, my first test showed a slight snag. I named the PARAM same as yours for simplicity and then gave it the same name as the form I wanted to navigate to. It did not work. I changed that to be a different name and it worked, So I assume it did not like my first option.

Thank you for this video, with all respect I love your work. You are amazing! :)

Nice video! Thanks

Hi April, Fantastic, this worked exactly as promised. One quick question, is it possible to display an icon link instead of a text link using JSON like this? Thanks K. Kapp

Hi April, Powerapps is not allowing me use Navigate function any longer OnStart. I'm trying to redirect users to a different screen. Now I'm not able to. What is the new solution for this. Thanks you

Best video on Deep linking

Hi April, Thanks a ton for the video! When I tried to use it to open power apps with params in a mobile device, I realized the parameter is ONLY passed/updated when a user currently have the App closed/unopened and starting the app freshly. It seems not updating the Param("...") value if an app is already opened. Did you notice this issue and potentially have a work around on that? Thanks a lot again!

Hi April, your videos are very much helpful and informative. I have a doubt regarding the deep linking concept. I have implemented Deep Linking Concept, every time I publish the app with new changes the weblink gets generated. If I provide weblink in deep linking as hard coded. Is it going to take the new version Web Link? or else what is the solution to get the new published version web link. Thanks In Advance

Hello April, great information, question, is there a way to Deep Link PowerApps with third party tool but not SharePoint? Is it possible? Thanks

Thank you April, super helpfull!

Nice job April!

Hi April!! If you have a filter on a PowerApps screen with a gallery, is there a way to deep link a value into one of the search fields so when user clicks on the link with the paramater, the gallery will display based on the param value?

Hi April, thank you so much for this awesome video and thanks for all you do to help people. I have one question. I have built a form using Power Apps. My form has 5 checkbox fields which allows for multiple selections. I have also built responsive gallery to display the items on Power Apps. Now the issue that I am having is, I wanted to have a deep linking URL to get the URL of a particular record. I followed the video and did it. But, when I view the record clicking on the link, none of the checkbox selections are shown. Are there any settings that I'm missing?

great video, you make it very easy.

Hi April, Thanks for the great video, but this way app opens up in browser even in the mobile device, can you please advise how can we open the app in Power Apps container after clicking the email link?

Thank you very much for the video April. Really appreciate all the work you do ..for us! I try ti implement your solution to a teams power app, but the variables on start (vargprid & varchannelid, are not set to the parameters. Any ideas as to why? Thank you in advance for your prompt reply.

Do you think you can make a video to help with the new deep linking feature of "Deep linking to a chat"

Thanks April for this knowledgeable video in Deep linking. I have a question. I want to implement a scenario where i have multiple SharePoint sites with Same Schema. (count is more than 100 sites). I have a list "Products" on every SharePoint Site (Same schema again). I have created an stand alone power app to enter data in this list on one of the site. Wanted to know that if i provide power app URL on a page with query string parameter as my current site URL, it is possible to change form/gallery data source/list pointing to that site only. so that when user is clicking the link in site A then should be able to enter data in products list of site A. and when user is going to site B then should be able to enter data in products list of site B. Note: I am planning to pass Site URL in query string parameter. Or is there any other way to implement this scenario?

April.... Do you have any video for the following situation: A have one gallery where I collect automatic information like (ID, TechName, Manager). And a second gallery where the user can input information like (code, service, duration, comment), user can add more than 1 line...but - I am stuck in reapply the fist gallery for each line from second gallery and then save in SharePoint. Can you (or anyone) help me?

Hi thanks for sharing this video. It was amazing. May I ask for your help just a little, I am recently struggling with deep linking problem. The scenario is I launch the link from powerapps (My app.) to Power BI report and then from BI, I have a deep link embedded ใน Report if I click on it, it will navigate back to my app. with the Parem but the app. does not load the Parem and stay still at the Home Page. This scenario works correctly when I run it on the browser!!! Any ideas to solve this would appreciate.

Hi April, It was nice video and i like it more, it is very use full, Can you make one video on navigation panel with menus , like left navigation how we can see in other websites . If already video there please share me that reference with me

Hello April, thank you very much for this video, it is really helpful!, like all the the others I have seen from you. I just implemented on one SPO List of mine. I have one question though, I made the change on the format for the Title column, but if I select the item (checkmark button to the left of the Title column) and next select the Edit button on the top bar, it opens the custom form not my canvas PowerApp. Is there another parameter that needs to be defined? Thanks!

Hi april How can i send this deeplink in power automate, As i want to put the deeplink in the body of mulitlevel approval Appreciate your help

Hi there! I am running into a snag that I am hoping you can help me with. I have deep linking set to the Issue ID column in my SPO list, but if there is more than one form submitted for that Issue ID it is bringing the user to the first form that was submitted. Is there a way to bring them to the last submitted form? Is there a way to easily set the deep link to open the exact form clicked on when accessed through SPO if it has multiple submissions?

Thanks a lot April for your great video, its veru helpul. I would to know how can we get link to edit item for powerapps

Hi April! This really helped!!! I'm not getting values of cascading drop downs. Can you help?

Hi, awesome video, but unfortunately, it is not working for me,is there some setting to implement? thanks

Nice vid April, this is so so useful. I have a question about a code line in the json, what the control line means. "txtContent": "@currentField", Does that line matter, all I just do is to make use of this line below? "href": "='PutURLOfYourPowerAppHere?ID='+[$ID]"

Hi April, please tell me the proper steps to do the following: I have app with a gallery showing all items. I will use flow once item created in list, to send email notification to the user with deep link to open edit form for that item auto selected from the gallery, is it possible?

If I have my app as a tab in Teams, is it possible to link to a new app and make it launch in the same tab in Teams?

How to push notification for user? and user click push notification after view file pdf in gallery or deep link or navigate sub screen? thanks. help me

Can you make a deep link have a state ( active or inactive)

Is there some additional Work to use deep-linking on Edit-Forms inside an existing SharePoint-Gallery. So that we can use the Submit-Button and the Exit/Back-Button of the Edit-Forms which navigated from the original Gallery-Controls

Hi! Awesome vids, one question, I've been using this param feature but I came with the fact params cant get pass if the app is already open (since it doesn't evaluate again the onstart function to define actions based on Params) How could be possible to pass those params even if the app is already opened (mobile)?

Can I open a DeepLink by send an ID from a flow?

Mine says you can't use navigate onstart and when I use startscreen nothing happens either.

I don’t have OnStart in my App drop down (I created a blank canvas app). Is there some setting or permission I need to make this available?

why is my apps doesnt show any web link?

How about Deep linking from one PowerApp to another?

This is not working for me. 😩
