It is a from a SharePoint list that I modified in PowerApps.

May 16, 2018Currently you cannot use web parts etc. to link to those PowerApps unfortunately that I'm aware of and have to create a power app separately and connect to your SharePoint list data, then share that app in order to embed it as a web part or what not.
List view web parts did support opening with new button to the PowerApp forms but it appears a recent update broke this functionality.

Anyway, you do not get the save and cancel buttons built into the SharePoint UI etc. So you will have to manually add more of those to the list etc. and it could look odd. Your best bet would still most likely be creating a stand alone PowerApp and use the SharePoint list as your data, or just connect directly to the list for people to interact with the list and the app.
You have to be on Targeted Release, and edit your page and type in Powerapps and it should be there, think all TR has it now, if you aren't on Targeted Release there is no way to get it yet until it's out of preview and in GA.- Phillip PooleMay 16, 2018Copper Contributor
Understandable.
I am still trying to get acclimated to PowerApps. It seems quite complex and detailed. So, I have some more to learn on how to do this effectively. Just needing to show some test results to management and looking at options.
Thank you
