Using App Designer to Create Custom Slides

Posted on by

Hi all,

I'm relatively new to Microsoft Dynamics. For the project I'm working on. I have to create an app with a bunch of custom screens such as this one.

I want to know how I could create custom screens such as this one using App Designer in Dynamics 365 since when I was playing around with it, it seemed that each of the entries/components of the app were very rigid and could not be edited to match the UI I wanted. Also what entries/components would you recommend using in the app to get that specific UI in the screenshot above? If not App Designer, what other Dynamics tools could I use to achieve this UI?

Any insight or help would be much appreciated.

    Hi partner,

    With App Designer in the D365, we can only set its Site Map, Dashboards and Entity View.

    If you want to design a richer UI, you need to use the embedded canvas apps.

    With canvas apps in PowerApps, you can design the app by dragging and dropping elements onto a canvas, just as you would design a slide in PowerPoint.

    Please refer to this official document on canvas apps in PowerApps:

    Please refer to this blog on enriching your model-driven forms with embedded canvas apps:
