I have this on my dev tenant this morning as well. 

 

I'm not sure they are going to release a web part for this though. It looks like this will be specifically used through the side panel as seen in the Size + Orientation settings, accessed through App Settings when in PowerApps.

 

 

On a side note, I have modified the form in PowerApps and have published it but can see no way of triggering/using the form from the list.

 

Wondering if this was not supposed to be available yet. I am first release on my companies production tenant which is on a deferred channel and it is showing there as well. I think they are getting stuff set up for Ignite and have made this visible by accident. Would be surprised if this was rolled out without a formal announcement!

Hi Ian

 

Just found this online in regards to a SharePoint pre day before Ignite 

 

https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/blogs/blogarticleprintpage/blog-id/SPBlog/article-id/833

 

In it there is a paragraph that mentions using PowerApps to create custom sharepoint forms. So the theory on something happening at ignite is quite likely.

 

Hope so as i've been given a christmas deadline to redevelop a massive Access Web App (being retired in April 2018 - by Microsoft - Nightmare!) and need these custom forms to get in done....
