PowerApps RAW!

This image component allows you to rotate an image to any degree unlike the Canvas image component which only allows 90, 180, or 270 degrees.

Canvas PowerApps provide a great amount of functionality with little or no code. Many examples demonstrate how to open a Canvas App within a Model App on a specific record and pass the context of that record. What if you don’t want to open a Canvas App for a specific record? Let’s say you want to create a menu functionality for user to allow them to open other Canvas apps, or maybe you have developed a Canvas app which provides a file conversion function which doesn’t relate to records at all.

Most of the references I found showed the Canvas app name in the code which wouldn’t allow for code re-use. Instead I wanted to pass query string parameters to the WebResource so that it could get the name from the URL. The problem I ran into was with the new UCI interface and how it handles WebResources. After a bit of trial and error I found the trick was not using the WebResource type in the SiteMap editor but instead using a URL in the correct format and passing the parameters I needed within the Data parameters. Update- After working with the Maker Portal SiteMap editor I have realized that it will auto decode all of your Data parameters. Instead of using the Maker portal you will need to update the SiteMap using [XrmToolbox] or another XML Editor. Use XRMToolbox SiteMap editor to create your sub area. Do not use the Ma...
