Hi Folks! In this blog, we will discuss how we can upload files like image files, word docs to SharePoint document library from PowerApps.

Create a document library. Let’s say- TestUploadDemo

Step 2

Go to Power apps. Create a Canvas App. I have chosen here Tablet experience.

Go to Insert Menu. Click on Media and select ‘Add picture’ option.

Step 4

I have renamed it to “UploadFileButton” and “UploadedImage”.

Step 6

Add a button ”Reset” to clear the uploaded Picture.

Step 7

As we discussed above we can upload any type of file. To determine this let us add a label and then move ahead uploading other type of file except image file. This label control will show which type of file has been uploaded.

Step 8

Now we have to upload files from PowerApps, and this file will store in SharePoint Document library. For this add a button and connect it to flow.

Step 9

Create a flow as shown below.

Step 10

Add a condition to the flow If 1 is equal to 2. Obviously, it will come to No block and then add Create a file

Step 11

Add the formula for “uploadtoSharePoint” button. This will add files to SharePoint document library.

So this way you can upload files from PowerApps to SharePoint document library.
