The PowerApps for Apps Maker is awesome. One of the actions it can call is 'Get Versions'. In this video I show how you can use the action to display the version number inside the app.
My corresponding blog for this video is here: dysfunctionalconsultant.com/p...

So many tutorials are out on the internet telling the same CountRows story. You're the first to explain the difference between the total versions and the total published versions. I have 135 versions and only getting 100 back. My version number was always 100. You explained that the version number is the date of the version, which made me put in a fixed date after version 127. Now, I counted the rows and did some math to find my version number. Of course, close to 200, I have to update my marker again... Thank you so much!!

Thanks for the video. I settled on last published date as you show in the end.. I actually seems very useful

@nitroglycerin2249 3 года назад

Great video easy to understand and useful. I find just using the last modified date is good enough for my purposes.

Cool Lachlan. Thanks for that. I agree with you, I don't really see why something so typical would required such work and that msft should just have included it as a matter of...."NORMALCY". Cheers

Fantastic mate, thank you for sharing, I've been trying to find a way of doing this for a long time. You're right, this should be a lot easier!

Great 👍. .. Thanks for the detailed video

Lachlan , you have educated me a lot but I have a question I need to display customer the present version on the screen and the latest version available and ways to refresh from the old version to new version

Excellent thank you

Hi Lachlan, Thanks for this video! Very helpful. One question I have for you: On your "Improved Version" screen. You did not show the text formula for label: Published Version: I can't seem to figure out how to get the number to appear there, after setting up the improved version. Can you please share that formula?

@lachlanwright9406 4 года назад

""Published Version: "&CountIf(Ungroup(myAppVersionsv2,"value"),properties.lifeCycleId="Published" Or properties.appVersion

I am trying to replicate the solution from the video, after execution , I am not able to see the collections for Step 2 , why is that , any help

@williamdyette1262 3 года назад

Lachlan, great video. Well done. I have exceeded 100 versions but my label seems to be stuck at 100 versions showing in the html label. It doesn't seem to advance beyond that. What help could you provide?

I have the same issue as well but didn't find the solution. not sure why it doesn't pass 100.

Nice approach but in an ALM process where the App moves between environments we get different App IDs and Prod Managed solution can't be edited.

@Leo_Russo 2 года назад

You could you use an environment variable for the app id, couldn't you?

@piotrrybka318 3 года назад

Is there any other way to get the app version number? Company policies sometimes prevent the Power Apps for App Makers connector from adding to the project due to security reasons.

@carlw 2 года назад

Been there!!! :( The alternative would be for Microsoft to simply allow you to enter into a label something like: App.ver BUT that would make way to much sense and remember what company we're talking about here.

@barnaliroy8703 3 года назад

Is there any way to show current version that user is using....so that we can prompt user to refresh app or login again to be able to use the latest version?

@wishmaster21 Год назад

Hello, First of all, excuse my English, my language is Spanish. I was looking for the same thing, I couldn't find it. Trying to reach a solution that I detail below that works perfectly for me, it brings the user the date of the version he is using: In English it seems to me that you should change the ";" for ",". In your first (welcome) screen (not startscreen) , properties "on visible" : Collect(appNumber2;GUID("Name APP in details"));; ClearCollect(myAppsVersions;PowerAppsparacreadores.GetAppVersions("Name APP in details"));; ClearCollect(myAppsVersionsUngrouped;Ungroup(myAppsVersions;"value")) Then: Create a Gallery, in the properties "Item": First(Filter(myAppsVersionsUngrouped;properties.lifeCycleId = "Published")) Then in Gallery: Show Title: Properties / Show value: appVersión Leave only 1 row, remove the borders and you have it... I hope I have been helpful..

@@wishmaster21 It does not solve the main problem that function PowerAppsforMakers limit under 150 records. So if you have more than 150 versions, it will not correct anymore.

@maciek6748 4 года назад

Cool, but I'm just not sure why you would need the Published version as only you can actually see it.

@lachlanwright9406 4 года назад

I think its helpful as when troubleshooting issues you can see which version of the app the player is running. If you didn't filter out the non-published versions the version number inside the app would display the latest version and not the published version, and this wouldn't be the version the player is running.

@denis7369 3 года назад

10 minutes of coding and 4 buttons to display a version number? Are you serious MS?

@maciek6748 4 года назад

One more thing, I just applied it in my App. The version is 630, but the count only shows 150. The delegation is set to 2000 :( Any ideas?

@lachlanwright9406 4 года назад

Hi Maciek - I'm not sure how you have got to this point? If you send me an email or reach out to me on Linkedin with some screenshots I'm happy to have a look at whats going on. Cheers, Lachlan

@zYxMa 4 года назад

Lachlan Wright you mean how I got to version number 630? It’s genuinely version 630. It’s not a glitch.

@Crockerfeller 4 года назад

I have this same issue. PowerApps version shows 167 as latest. 165 as "Live" / Published, Yet the value shown is 150.

@lachlanwright9406 4 года назад

@@Crockerfeller Interesting it is capping at 150. Can you share screenshots with me? It might be the connector only allowing you to return 150. If you manually trigger the call do you get different results? I would troubleshoot this by reproducing in a manually triggered flow and seeing what is being sent back. Happy to help. You can get in touch with me via linked in.
