Deeplinks in Canvas Apps

Nice tut. However, what happens if an invalid item ID is specified as the param? My screen got stuck at 'Getting your data...'. It would be nice to be able to automatically navigate to the home screen again if Lookup could not find the record by id.

What about something like: OnVisible of the screen.... If(IsEmpty(Filter(Datasource,ID = Param("itemId")),Navigate(HomeScreen),false)

@@powertothepeople4525 Had tried that but you can't use Navigate in OnVisible.

I followed this method, my app is navigating to the correct page, however it is not picking up the ID. So it navigates to the correct screen, but the form is empty and doesn’t pick up the proper item in the list based off the ID

Amazing

The only issue is that if there are multiple requests being made through the powerapps, it will go to the recent latest ID/entry, how can i be able to redirect the users to a specific request? That way if multiple people are sending through a request, all the emails with the "click here" hyperlinks wont redirect the user to the newest request but rather the request that was being made at the time.... if that makes sense

Make your ID unique. So that you avoid this situation.

You do not show how the ApproveReject form uses the varItemId, did you set that somewhere else?

It's pretty quick and towards the end, but at 11:55, I set the Item property of the form to varItemId :)
