Make the most of Microsoft Power Apps

Microsoft Power Apps Cookbook is a collection of practical hands-on recipes for creating custom business solutions in a rapid application development environment. Packed with several real-world use cases, the book covers advanced techniques for creating feature-rich Power Apps applications using the capabilities of Power Automate, model-driven apps, AI Builder, Power Apps Component Framework, and Dataverse for Teams.

This book offers a wealth of pragmatic knowledge and in-depth coverage of tools within the Power Platform ecosystem that extends beyond the official documentation, meaning you can replicate and reinvent the do-it-yourself recipes from the book in your projects.

Tackle challenges with expert recipes

Microsoft’s current documentation does a great job of explaining Power Apps concepts, however, the sample solutions or expert recipes by author Eickhel Mendoza covered in Microsoft Power Apps Cookbook help to extend your practical knowledge by showing you how to use real-world examples to solve different challenges.

Many of the examples in this book are based on experiences of developer needs from a range of organizations. These requirements have been taken into account when building the recipes to help citizen developers create solutions to improve everyday processes and build applications to enhance their current implementations.

Start building with Power Apps

Build a responsive password manager in Power Apps

Power Apps helps you build apps with responsive UI designs that work the same on desktop and mobile devices. This recipe will help you leverage Power Apps layout tools to build your password manager that addresses the size and location of the controls for every device. You’ll be using the Azure Key Vault service to save your personal and work-related credentials securely by encrypting the information.

Develop apps with Dataverse for Teams

One of the most exciting parts that you will learn is to build apps for Teams using Microsoft Dataverse. You will get hands-on with creating apps inside Microsoft Teams that provide the ability to use them on multiple devices. Dataverse for Teams provides a template that eases the application building process by providing a pre-configured canvas for both desktop and mobile devices.

Build a helpdesk solution

This recipe will help you understand how to create business-centric apps with a set of base tables such as account, contact, and organization. Starting with building a help-desk solution, you’ll develop a complete model-driven app by setting up business process logic that defines requirements, objectives, and solutions from start to end. You’ll also be able to use data validation rules and data flows to guide the end user, and trigger workflows for defined events.
