PowerApps are a great way to accomplish simple tasks by end users. A new PowerApp is usually done in minutes (if the underlying data source is existing and working). Nevertheless, it often takes much more time to polish the app and to find and modify details. So I decided to post from time to time some tips when stumbling upon any topics in PowerApps. A driver’s log I wanted to use a very simple custom SharePoint Online list to allow colleagues to log their travels with a company car.

Working with the API To easily access the Excel or Word functions with JavasScript, Microsoft provides an object with an anonymous function and a context (*ctx *here) as parameter. So, accessing Excel works basically as here: ...

Sometimes, it’s the small things that cost (unnecessarily) time. Recently, I wanted to create a quick Office App for an existing Excel file to loop through rows and do some transformation for the values. I was stumbling over some topics when developing in real world. So here’s my short How To for working with Visual Studio and Office Apps with helpful tips.
