Does the PowerApps Web Part support PowerApps SharePoint WebForms?

Tried to integrate a form but I could not find the App ID. How can I add a SharePoint list form that I converted to PowerApps to a modern page?

Hi Jeff,

It does appear to work with customized SharePoint list forms and I've managed to add a new item, but I haven't had a chance to fully test it yet.

@Chakkaradeep - is this an officially supported use case?

To get the PowerApps ID, select 'Customize forms' from the SharePoint list menu.

You should see the ID displayed at the end of the url that's displayed in the address bar when the form opens up in the PowerApps web client.

I can also find it via the PowerApps Admin Centre (although you might need a Plan 2 licence for this), by selecting the default environment, then click the relevant app and the ID should be displayed at the bottom of the 'Details' screen.

Note: to display a new item form in the web part, I had to change the DefaultMode to FormMode.New (SharePointForm1 > Advanced), but as I said I haven't extensively tested this.

All the best,

Geraint

List custom forms are not currently not supported in the web part as forms are not apps. However, the current plan is to build a list forms web part that can handle list forms scenarios without needing to do any hacks to make it work :) - Stay tuned for more updates!
