0:27
So if you want to however you want to go about it, if you want to answer questions throughout
0:31
or if you want to wait for the last five minutes, that's that's your option
0:36
I would like to start because my contents are like, you can easily finish up in 45 minutes
0:41
like 45 minutes. OK, so. Let me start then. Alright. OK, first of all, very good morning
0:53
Good, good, good afternoon for whatever time You are hearing to me
0:58
My name is Akash and in the next hour or 45 minutes
1:02
I will be presenting components in Power App. So and first of all, I wish like you all guys are safe
1:11
during this pandemic situation that we are going through a tough time
1:15
So it is very great that we had. We have such kind of conferences going on so that our
1:22
learnings are not stopped. There is a great scene that the show must go on
1:29
So still like we are close into the house, but still learning is still going on
1:37
So for that, I really appreciate the efforts made by the community member or the organizer and the sponsors
1:46
who are sponsoring this event. So let's start this event. Before starting, it's a request to all of you guys, this is a fundraiser, a charity event, so if we can support this event by donating, whatever the capability is, you can donate
2:11
if in this pandemic situation you still have a job and you are getting a paycheck every month and
2:18
then it is our sole responsibility that we have to help those who are not getting paid like the
2:24
children's for which this unicef is working so it's our duty or it's our responsibility to support
2:34
them by donating a very small amount that will not affect our
2:39
paychecks I did and I I I wish like everyone should do this a small amount of donation and these are our sponsors and without sponsors any event is not successful
2:56
so a big thanks to all these sponsors who are helping us to spread the knowledge
3:03
throughout the world by these live conferences Okay, so now I'm moving towards the agenda like what we are
3:11
going to see in the next 45 or one hour. Like here we will see like a basic introduction of PowerApp
3:19
because we are going to cover a component in PowerApp. So before directly jumping to the component, I would like to give a very small introduction of PowerApps
3:29
Then we will see some basic building blocks, then how we can get this PowerApp subscription
3:35
subscription then we will jump into the main topic that is components then we
3:40
will see properties then demo and Q&A I have tried to maximize my time in demo
3:48
rather than moving to the slides I have tried to maximize my screen time on for
3:54
demo so what is power app like power app is a like it's a combination of
4:02
services like applications, services, connectors and data that provide a rapid application development for a mobile or a
4:10
tablet or even you can use it into the web browser also. But
4:14
power app was specifically designed for application development for mobile or a tablet devices so that we can
4:21
connect to our application from from whatever location we are moving or we are there and using the power app power apps. What
4:30
In the powerapps, what we can do is we can connect to cloud services data or even we can
4:37
connect on-premises data source. For connecting on-premises data source, we may need custom default on-premises gateways
4:48
which will connect the data from on-premises to our powerapp application. But but but the end goal is like power
4:56
app can connect to the cloud data or it can also connect to the on premises data
5:04
And the building blocks of power app like how power app can be made
5:11
We need app designer. We have a screen into that throughout the demo or throughout the presentation
5:18
I would like to compare power app with some technology which we already
5:23
For example here here if I say then we can compare it to the dotnet application like in dotnet application we have a pages then here we have a screens in dotnet application we have visual studio to develop our codes and here we have a app designer
5:44
in dotnet we have multiple databases like sql mysql then other things and in powerapp we have a data
5:52
source which will hold hold our data and in powerapp we have a controls a similar way that we have in the
6:00
dotnet application like text text box drop down choice controls whatever we have
6:09
and now like how you can get started with the powerapp if you are a developer then or if you
6:17
developer or you want to be a power app developer then you have a three option to get started with it
6:24
like first option is like you can uh sign up for power app for the 30-day trial which
6:47
Cash, are you still there
7:09
He might be having some audio issues. Give us a second here and we try to figure that out
7:17
OK, so I'm sharing from here again
7:27
Like we have app designer like at a building block. We have app
7:33
designer from where we will build our power application. Then we have screens in for where we will put our controls
7:41
Then we have a data sources where we where our data will be
7:46
like we can have a SharePoint or any other data sources, then they will have a controls
7:52
Controls are like we already check boxes, textbook, text boxes, buttons, all that things
8:00
And here like how you can get started with the power app
8:04
So in order to get started with the power app, what you can do is you can sign up for a 30 day trials
8:11
which Microsoft provide and you have allowed to use power app features for the next 30 days or else you can do You can create your Office 365 developer tenant under Microsoft developer program which Microsoft provides and it will be like continuing continue
8:28
subscription if you're using it for a development purpose and then you can sign up with a community plan
8:37
Now Microsoft is providing a community plan for this So that you can explore power app in detail and you can improve
8:46
your learning on the power app. So now you have a basic idea of power app like power app is used
8:56
to create some mobile application or tablet layout application. So now we will see what is a component, but before directly
9:04
jumping to the component, what I would like to show you interface
9:09
how power app look like and how you can log into the power app subscription
9:16
So for that. You have to go to the portal dot office
9:22
dot com and here you have to sign in with your Microsoft account
9:28
the account that had a subscription. And from here you will see an option of power app
9:36
Here we have power apps. So this is the very first screen of a PowerApp
9:47
It's still loading
9:58
So here you can see that basic application which I have already created just for like
10:06
explore my learnings so here from create menu we can create our own power application and here
10:13
you can see that the data sources which are available like sharepoint excel sql server
10:19
then common data services and we have bunch of data sources available over here like we can select
10:25
any of the data source to create a power application power x application so let's create
10:32
a basic power application and here you have an option like canvas app or you can create a model driven or you can create a
10:41
portal. So for demonstrating the component, what I am going to do is I will create a common canvas app and as I already told
10:50
that we can create. Power App application for tablet or phone. So here
