Very interesting as usual thanks Shane.. I finally automated this whole process with flow to make on-boarding external user experience easier, plus the flow can personalize the boring invitation email, attribute license, add to SharePoint, add to power apps and send a welcome email including the link to the html embedded power apps after the user accepts the invite. Pretty cool stuffs

But I would have like to see how you solved the "Guest Users can't see the image" issue - as I generally have no problems sharing with Users (The need for them to navigate to the SharePoint List at least once is ridiculous, and I can't wait for Microsoft to fix that bug) - but I do have issues with Users seeing images I put into my App (usually their company logo). Can you let us know how you solved that issue? Thanks.

This is great info, especially as a resource when our internal folks ask us about sharing apps externally. We've done it in one specific/limited instance and it worked OK, but coordinating guest account creation, license deployment, etc was a real pain. Not looking to go through that again unless there's a really good reason. However, one topic that I don't think you've covered before is how to handle "race conditions", in particular for things like event registration or asset sign-out. In your sample app, what happens if 20 people try to borrow the same toy from Chewy at nearly the same time? Surely, someone's patch or form submit is going to fail (or will it?) I mean, there are techniques for dealing with this, but not terribly well document or explained. Purpose-built applications usually use some form of record locking, but what's the cleanest way to achieve that with Power Apps?

I have just recently learned Power Apps. I have years of experience developing databases and front-end applications, and I must say I think Power Apps is a bit of a gimmick for several reasons, one of them being what was shown in this video.
@ShanesCows Жыл бұрын
Interesting. Why do you think it is a gimmick? Some things, like this, you have to jump through some hoops for sure but for non-developers it is pretty powerful. I think for a procode developer like you, there are other places you bring tremendous value to power apps. Things like PCF controls, custom connectors, and all of that API fun are things that come to mind. 😎

@@ShanesCows Hi Shane. Maybe gimmick is not the correct term. I definitely see some usefulness in Power Apps, and the reason I am using it currently is because my company needs a way to do Quality inspections at factories in China using mobile phones. The people doing the inspections are not users on our company's 365 (and we don't want them to be). This kind of stuff just makes the whole process pretty clunky. I think Microsoft has made it too much of a closed environment designed to work only within their own integrated services.

What's tripped us up is the lack of license stuff. The company I work for is _completely_ decentralized. Each division handles their own stuff, so it's all over the place with what capabilities they have and services they use. We've been trying to use Approvals and it's really hard to nail down who does and doesn't have access. It _really_ should be anyone with a Microsoft account can process an approval, and only the person creating it needs a license.

In SQL it would be very simple but could not figure what to do in canvas power apps. Maybe using Flow could solve that if in operator is delegable in Flow. Then I could Get all project ids where user is a member and then get all projects that project id is in the first list. Build nice collection and return to Power App then use it in gallery but then for edit use just ID and get specific Project record directly. Just some idea but not sure about that Flow.
