In a Canvas app, a New Form Screen is a type of screen that allows the user to create a new record in a data source.
Here are the steps to create a New Form Screen in a Canvas app:
- Open Canvas app in Power Apps Studio and select the “Screens” option from the left-hand side menu.
- Click on the “New Screen” button and select the “New form” option from the dropdown menu.
- In the “Data source” dropdown, select the data source where we want to create a new record.
- Choose the fields that we want to include on the form by clicking on the “Add field” button.
- Customize the layout of the New Form by adding controls like labels, text boxes, images, and other data controls. Arrange them on the screen in the way that we want.
- If want to add interactions to the screen, such as buttons to submit or cancel the creation of a new record, we can add those as well.
- Save New Form and test it by running your Canvas app.
When a user navigates to the New Form Screen, they will see a blank form that they can fill out to create a new record in the data source. The user can enter the details for the new record into the text boxes or other controls on the form, and then submit the new record by clicking on a button. This will add the new record to the data source. If the user chooses to cancel the creation of the new record, they can do so by clicking on a “Cancel” button, which returns them to the previous screen without creating a new record.
