Using power apps - record a new entry into a table with an attachment and lookup fields

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 130

Hi BC Forum

How can I do the following in powerapps from a connected BC table

  • Allow user to add an attachment to the record from power apps, and capture image and store in new table record (per record - 1 image) 
    • table extension or custom table are both fine here
  • Use a lookup filter so fields on powerapps only show certain values

The goal is to create a powerapp that a user accesses through a web link, adds a record (parts request) and then triggers notifications to group members when a new record is added to the table

Side question - can a team members license perform this function in BC (vs. essentials/premium)

Thank you!.

    Hi

    Have you reviewed this article? I mean it is hard to work with blob but if you have your own table and your custom API this maybe work

    I believe Team license could cause and issue since they have no "write" privilege  to some tables. But see the second article that can help

    Hello,

    We currently do not have dedicated Dev support via the Dynamics 365 Business Central forums, but I wanted to provide you some additional resources to assist. If you need assistance with debugging or coding I would recommend discussing this on one of our communities.

    I will open this up to the community in case they have something to add.

    Thanks.
