For the actual 'power apps' app, if it is already open to the specific app, it won't refresh/reload the new parameters. Is there any workaround for this?
Hey! The Parameters in the URL are static as they exist in the URL as they are loaded if you need them to change store the Param() in a variable or context an update the variable or context as they change, let me know if that helps ;)
@@Novalogix-ltd Yes indeed so, but please try this: open the power apps in the actual mobile/desktop power app using URL parameters. If the app is already running, any URL linked to that app will not load any new url parameters. I'm using the link: ms-apps:///providers/Microsoft.PowerApps/apps/?TestParam=Test But lets say if I leave the app open and I want to execute a url with another TestParam value, it won't reload the param into the app. The only way around this would be to have a separate app to pass the param to the other app which would 'refresh' it but it isn't a good solution.
Hey the video is awesome! For the last parameter you made is there any way you connect that to multiple screens. For example, if the id number already exist it goes to the edit screen with the list information and if the id number doesnt exist it goes to a new screen to fill out the form information.
Hey! for sure, I know this is an old comment but you can collect the parameter and then do an If Statement using IsBlank() to perform a navigation or you can use the StartScreen parameter in the App control.
I've done this by putting a link in a workflow to the specific screen and ID. ID it refers to is the record that was added that triggered the flow. It is opening the correct form, but regardless of the record.. it opens to the first record in my list. any idea why?
Great question, it depends where and how you have embedded it but you will need to pass the parameter into the embed url and the power app will be able to collect it, we do this often with Power Pages where we have Canvas apps embedded!
Great examples. Straight to the point! Thanks for sharing.
