How to Use Power Apps Deep Linking Parameters

[@WaliSayed]

the variable at the OnStart was what I had missed, made my app work! Thanks a lot

Hey Brian, amazing video! I watched many videos over the past few nights on deep linking tutorials and this one is by far the simplest and easiest to understand. The way you go into detail on each step/function, and also the WHY, is a tremendous help. So many videos skip over the why part and it can be quite difficult to understand. But again, amazing job and this gave me the perfect directions and I look forward to checking out more of your videos from this point forward!

Awesome, thank you! - Brian

Hi Brian, great video! Your video has helped me to figure it out what I was missing in the formula on start. Thanks!!

[@PragmaticWorks]

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks Brian, your solution was much more straight forward than some of the others I had found! I had it working for a bit but now am running into an issue when accessing the deep link. The link opens to the correct screen but is stuck on 'Getting your data ...'. I've noticed that the app doesn't appear to be executing the OnStart logic.. any ideas on remedying this?

Hi all in Pragmatic Works, 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?

Hi Brian, 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!

Hello, Once the item is loaded via the URL generated and sent via email and if I navigate to any other item or even the Home Screen, the ID=45 is always there and doesn't change when going to a different item. :(( Is there a way to reset it post movement to other page?

Please let me know if you can create Folder in Windows desktop using PowerApps or Power Automate? I’m also interested in creating Folder Shortcuts. Can this be done at all?

Thank you for the video. Can you do a video on how to insert a link in email to open Power Apps form for a particular SharePoint list item?

[@PragmaticWorks]

Sure, the concept is exactly the same. Your app would just need to point to a SP list instead of a SQL Server table. Only difference is you would use the Sharepoint Item ID. :)

is there any way we can use a button in canvas app to turn off internet or wi-fi connection in the System or PC?

[@PragmaticWorks]

Not that I'm aware of.

For that, you can use the Power Apps Notification connector and have it open the app with parameters as shown in this video.
