Overview of this book

Microsoft PowerApps provides a modern approach to building business applications for mobile, tablet, and browser. Learn Microsoft PowerApps will guide you in creating powerful and productive apps that will add value to your organization by helping you transform old and inefficient processes and workflows. Starting with an introduction to PowerApps, this book will help you set up and configure your first application. You’ll explore a variety of built-in templates and understand the key difference between types of applications such as canvas and model-driven apps, which are used to create apps for specific business scenarios. In addition to this, you’ll learn how to generate and integrate apps directly with SharePoint, and gain an understanding of PowerApps key components such as connectors and formulas. As you advance, you’ll be able to use various controls and data sources, including technologies such as GPS, and combine them to create an iterative app. Finally, the book will help you understand how PowerApps can use several Microsoft Power Automate and Azure functionalities to improve your applications. By the end of this PowerApps book, you’ll be ready to confidently develop lightweight business applications with minimal code.

Much like Microsoft Power Automate, Azure can provide additional processing power to your PowerApps through a number of Platform as a Service (PAAS), Software as a Service (SAAS), or Infrastructure as a Service (IAAS) offerings. There are a large number of connectors available to Azure, some standard and others premium, which allow you to extend the functionality you have available to you within PowerApps.

There's also a growing number of connectors in preview, such as connectors that have pre-general availability and therefore can be used for testing, which means that Microsoft is increasing the number of Azure resources that you have directly available within your PowerApp. The most common resources that are employed alongside PowerApps are as follows:
