I can't stress this enough but all your stuff has really helped me to where i am today. Perfect timing, I was asked by my boss to work on a data entry form thru powerapps so i am bookmarking this video

[@LeilaGharani]

Glad to hear it!

[@gintomino4136]

You’re a great teacher and played a pivotal role in my career.

[@mypalbill]

I am continually amazed at your knowledge and perfect delivery of the training. Thanks once again!!

[@williambest8415]

I will add the same "thank you" as the other posters here. Excellent pace and delivery of info. I've been floundering a bit in "Getting Started" and this video was just what I was looking for. Thanks again.

[@Nell1975KK]

Love your video, we use quite some power apps in our work as accountant but it's a bit difficult to self learn it. I think there are so many details need to be taken care of to make a successful app. Your tutorial is always easy to follow and give necessary tips. Really appreciate if we can have more videos for power apps.❤

[@jeremyfincher7284]

Excellent idea to keep the development team in sync with the sales team

Straight to the point, perfect delivery and simple enough to grasp. Thank you

[@Mont3000]

Exactly, in just 20 minutes I made my own simple app but now feel as if I have a much broader understanding now instead of going on blind.

[@russellgeorge7768]

Leila, I have really enjoyed your videos over the years. This tutorial was great. If you are looking for ideas for expanding on this topic, one suggestion would be to include the ability to take and store photos with a new app. Say you have a field survey and want to document what you are surveying with photos, how would this be handled with a custom app and how would you control naming photos as well as where the photos are stored. Keep up the great work.

[@paulizzyrollins]

Great demo, this is some powerful stuff. Thanks

[@LeilaGharani]

Glad you liked it!

Thank you Leila, am feeling like a new brand 🎉

[@omega3li493]

great simple & yet easy to understand. Thanks.

[@francishuddy9462]

This has been an excellent, informative video. I only discovered Power Apps two weeks ago, and have not yet got the hang of it. But, I am designing a Power App at my workplace, the data source being an outdated Excel file, which is printed out on paper by caretakers and completed on site. This is a legacy process which is slow, and subject to errors. It needs changing. Hopefully, my new Power App - to be run on a mobile phone - will hurtle my workplace into the information age 👍☕🚀📱

[@smithjanth120]

This lesson is awesome. Perfect tutor. Thank you so much for making this video.

[@LeilaGharani]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@JacobWrestledGod]

These videos are life saving.

[@amitb1423]

Lovely way to teach.. I earlier used open as app to make an android app for my phone. But I was has now limited the no of users. Now with power apps I can just do it easily with much better controls thanks.

[@willbaltazar7043]

Power Apps really looks like a useful tool that can be applied to what we do in my area of work. I look forward to learning more.

[@clitheroeant]

Thank you for this video. Incredibly helpful!

[@saravanann9698]

[@atuljain8296]

[@WaliSayed]

Honestly this video is excellent. Clear, neat, simple and understandable. I really enjoyed this video tutorial. Thanks a million!

[@AaronCCorbin]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I was always curious about Power Apps but it seemed so complicated. Thank you really presenting it in a simple way. It seems like an extremely powerful tool!

[@LeilaGharani]

It really is!

Incredible, simple, and sufficient tutorial... I really want to go to a point where Power Apps become a real solution for our customers. Thanks for sharing. Congratulations!

[@tamarrdaniels709]

So helpful!

[@jaybuddhadev3543]

Perfect tutor, Thank you for such a amazing video

[@rocroc]

Wonderful job - you are so good at this stuff. I'm a senior mostly retired. I don't need to learn any of this but whatever is inside tells me to get on with it. This reminds me of an Access program. I first started with DBase and moved onto Access. I understand they still have Access today but don't promote it anymore. Really don't need it with a program like this.

[@KarinaStavenes]

This is so timely! Thank you!

[@LeilaGharani]

So glad, Karina!

[@2510prasad]

World Best Teacher

[@orideconblingbling]

99% of video tutorial that I watched are with male voice. This is the first time I learn something online, where the teacher is female. And suddenly I had flashback memories of studying during highschool (because most of my teachers are female), and you know what is awesome? I can digest and remember your video content much more easy ... Maybe because of that mental state that I longing for. Thank you.

[@BryanCastleman]

Yes it is useful and I would want to use it for all kinds of things. I haven't found tutorials online that I like. Please make more Power Apps content.

[@laurenceabrahams3996]

Thanks superb , will be building Travel Request app for my company x

[@LeilaGharani]

Fantastic!

[@prakavids3125]

This will be my starting point of PowerApps. Thanks for this tutorial :)

[@LeilaGharani]

Have fun!

[@vasanthalakshmi3674]

You have explained very well about PowerApps.Please do complete tutorial . I want to expertise and get job on this. Thanks in advance

[@cybersamurai99]

The have fun task was the best task I've seen in a power app

[@nssdesigns]

I'm involved in data for an engineering company and usually sharing trackers/excel files or Google Sheets is at most clumsy and ugly. Having data available in your pocket with 2-way data store on a cloud server is very powerful for working in large organisations with offices all over the world and people working remote. I use Power Automate and AI so it's a natural progression and unlike google appsheet Power apps can use phones to capture images, video and sound very very powerful in reporting.

[@vishvanraghavan3695]

Would love it if you did more on powerapps!

[@brysonjones6196]

yess finally your doing these please keep going with power apps and powerautomate is a huge help and the way you teach and present on how you walkthrough the steps for everything..keep up the great work and continue pleasee

[@LeilaGharani]

Will do!

[@Testing_QualityAnalyst_Channel]

Great informative

[@reprocessors]

Mam your videos are just like you... i.e Awesome.👍👍

[@LeilaGharani]

Thanks a lot 😊

[@vijayarjunwadkar]

Finally, in the "Power" series, I could get a hang of at least the "Power App" as it appears less complex as compared to other tools. It's definitely useful as people can unleash their creativity and sort of automate some mundane tasks in innovative ways! Thank you Leila for this nice and useful video! Any plan on "Power BI" videos? Would love to learn it from you! 😊👍

[@LeilaGharani]

Thanks Vijay. Yes. For sure Power BI will come 😊

[@Franceskineos]

This is the solution to have feedback from the data to the data entry dialog that was missing in power automate instant triggers .. 😀 Tank you Leila.

[@LeilaGharani]

Our pleasure, Francesco!

[@user-mj3bo7df9g]

thank you so much for the tutorial. Your approach and training style is incredibly professional, helpful, and allows the audience to walk away with actionable knowledge. Question for you: How would one using the SharePoint backend or data source, use the ACLs to select a user of the same system, or otherwise, have a field that captures the actual User ID for the record they are creating?

[@ismaelshameemetowar3263]

Excellent tutorial :) You are the BEST :) Thank you :)

[@vv9022]

Leila, as always your videos are very clear to understand. I have a question, as you mentioned in the end the users would have access to the underlying data whether in Excel or in the SharePoint List, is there a way to restrict access or restrict view? Or just have access to their own information and not of the others on the list? Thanks if you happen to actually see my comment and reply. I know this video is over a year old 😊

[@autoguy57]

Hello, can you tell me how to save the data instead of replacing it with each entry? I am using Lists for my data. Thank-you! Great video.

[@Titina7183]

Hi Leila, thank you for sharing! Your videos are incomparable. Quick question, my team and I use a big excel file in Sharepoint with different tabs that different team members update. We have a unique reference for each record. Many of the fields are repeated in the different tabs. Our file is not in a table format. What would be the best way to create an app in this case? Thank you.

[@mhdz10]

Very good video Leila, thank you!

[@devidodge]

great intro to power apps. Exactly the kind of functionality we could use in my org

[@DPaquette]

A very good short overview of PowerApp, but the people should make sure that if they are part of a large company/gov dept/military...etc they should get this approved prior to the building as some places have very strict and restrictive policies, regardless of how much better it would be for the project outcome.

[@mjf857]

Excellent - thank you very much!

[@relicworx426]

I'm happy I found your channel,; This is exactly the type of utility I was looking for! I switched from a Mac to a PC recently and its not been to smooth a transition ha. Thanks!👍
