Creating a canvas app from existing data

Power Apps is the ideal choice when building enterprise solutions. These solutions are often needed to improve a particular process, especially regarding data handling. Sometimes, you will start from scratch, but most of the time, the data structure will be there already, just waiting for a robust and flexible application to handle it.

For these situations, there are some ready-made processes in the Microsoft ecosystem that allow you to create apps from a particular set of data. We will discover these from Azure and the Power Apps maker portal.
