This was one of the first videos I watched as a total PowerApps n00b (I was building a uniform ordering app and used collections to compile the order). I have since (in less than a year) had two promotions and now build and train people in PowerApps, Flow, SharePoint sites and Power BI for a 5200 person State Government department in Australia - all thanks to finding your channel. You are in the 'for more training guides' section of every training session I deliver too. Thanks for being real, concise, practical, and not waffling on! Keep them coming! I still manage to learn new things :)

Hi Shane, Thank you so much for the video! I am new to PowerApps, but have learned so much from you by watching your videos every day. Your ability to explain the complex ideas is truly amazing! Yes, you are so awesome!!! Thanks again!

Hey, Just started your video series, and your videos are fantastic! Subscribed! Keep up the great work. And please don't worry about it when you make small errors on the videos, as they are also very helpful for learning! Thanks!

Shane wonderful job! Within a week of watching your series, I’ve began my adventure into the PowerApps world!!! Keep them coming :)

Thank you very much! You are very clear and you do everything step by step. Everyone up to the Spanish speakers like me, we understand you perfectly!

Love the videos :) learning PowerApps with you

Great work, Shane! Your presentation has saved me much work and brought me one step futher in doing things the PowerApps way. :)

Great video! Thanks for getting to the point and explaining things clear.

Serious talk my man. You are awesome. This is great work. In as little as 3 days, I have gone from zero to hero. Keep up the great work.

Hi Shane! this was awesome. i did one variation and added "Set(Edit,true)" to navigation arrow in gallery like "Select(Parent);Set(Edit,true)". Great job!

As a newcomer in PowerApps, I really are having great use of your videos. And in these crazy times, I do have some extra time at home, so why not learn something useful!

Your videos are amazing. Thank you for taking the time to make these. Thumbs up!

Watching again after 2 years. Great how you don’t age Shane!

Such an awesome teacher of Powerapps ! Many thanks for great tutorials . Keep up the great work :)

Thank you Shane! It was very good! Thumbs up!

Hi Shane, I really like how concise are your videos. Really practical for quick questions or doubts we have when we're creating apps. First video from yours I watch and instant subscribe. Keep it up!

Thank you so much Shane for your great videos!

On the Save button i've reversed the Set(Edit, True) to Set(Edit, False). I'm sure you just forgot, but incase anyone else forgets to do that, it's a great idea. Your videos are great, I wouldn't be able to create PowerApps without them. I was a total noob last week and have created 3 apps since - thanks!

Hi Shane, i just want to say thank you for all your videos. it helps me a lot in my projects.

Shane, really good material. I spent time looking for this type of content for PowerApps. Thanks I found you hahahha Thanks man! I'm just getting started. Your knowledge reach me here in Brazil

Thanks Shane! Great video! Very helpful!

When I first heard your intro I hated the music, but now I just get excited for a good video, haha!

Big Thanks for all your Videos !!!!!!!You are Awsome

Hey Shane - awesome video yet again. Have you got a video which shows how you would 'patch' or 'update' an external data source like an SP list using a Collection?

Thanks for your vids! They've been a big help.

Very helpful and easy to learn video, many thanks, Subscribed !

Thank you Shane, your videos are very helpful

Shane you are really Awesome. You are doing a great work to make people like us reaching to next level in PowerApps. Thanks for all the help.

Thanks for sharing!! loved the lesson :)

Like your contributions a lot!

there is a very nice teaching, it's very much practical; I believe, this video is helpful for more people! Great!

Hi Shane, I really enjoy your videos! I have an excel table which will likely be a few thousand records in a year. My question is, which I can't seem to find the answer to - are collections always necessary? The workarounds to bring multiple records up to the app seem quite cumbersome, especially if they wanting to update records. Where data exceeds 2000 rows, is using a delegable function like filter just a better option?

This was really helpful and easy to follow. Thank you!

Very helpful Shane.

Great Job Shane Young its very very use full for a beginner.Excellent explanation.

Great Info!! Keep rocking

Thank you sir, might God bless you and you knowledge.

Hi Shane, thanks for making this so easy to understand! I'm trying to create an app that tracks some items for home improvements - dates for tiling, painting etc. So I have a screen with some cards in it, one for each stage. I'd like to then collect each of them on a separate line and then patch to be stored at the end, but can't figure out how to make that happen? So it would have columns for QuoteID, Stage, StartDate, EndDate, where stage refers to what's happening (painting, tiling etc). I'm also wondering how best to update records as well - if a date changes, and the quote is opened up again, how to collect that information and then when patching back how to overwrite the original record?

Very Useful. Excellent work.

Thank you for your content Shane.

Excellent

Shane - love your videos! You make learning Power Apps fun! :-)

Great explanation of collections as always. Thank you very much.

Awesome presentation skill.. Liked specially for line "better not get ourselves in trouble ... don't wanna get in trouble as close to Valentine's day" :)

Awesome!

Thats was really useful, fast and even funny video, thanks a lot!

hi shane... as usual great video

thanks Shane great video

Thanks Shane for this videos they really help us A LOT!, one question, is it possible to add a field from another screen into a collection using Collect()?; it's a shopping cart that needs to specify delivery destination and that data is added on the first screen before collecting data on the details screen of each sku... thaks again in advance. cheers from Chile!

Shane, I have a cool tool tip for you. Instead of hiding variables, set their X position to ScreenName.Width and the Y accordingly. That way users who are editing the app will see the variable.

Your videos are awesome.

Eres un maestro,,, gracias (You are a Master,,, Tanks)

awesome Shane

Fantastic 👏

Hi Shane thank you for doing these videos. Have you covered Auto Generating an ID? I would like each new record to auto-populate an ID based on the last ID in Excel.

Shane, Thanks for all your great videos. Can you guide on limitations around collections. Like how many collections can an app handle & how many items in single collection can there be. Considering the regular mobile phone capabilities.

Thank you sir.

So good video!

Hey Shane! Your videso are very easy to follow! Thanks so much! I have a question: Is it possibile to a Sharepoint list that contains a column "stakeholders" which is a type Choice, multiple choices allowed, modifiable? In powerapps someone is able to type out a new stakeholder and is it possible to update and add this new item to a the sharepont list choices?

Hi Shane thank you for the video on collection. Just one question, I've created an attendance list in sharepoint that captures trainees details and instead of creating as items I want to create as a collection through powerapps. I've customised the list in powerapps as a collection but how do I display my collection back to sharepoint. Thanks

Collection function looks like shopping cart to me, but i'm not sure after this video. I will be great if you can elaborate on how to use this function, e.g. transfer the data in collection to CDS or Sharepoint List or workflow. Overall it's still super helpful, thanks for your wonderful video!

Hi, I am new to powerapps, I find your videos interesting and straight forward to follow. I have a question regarding collections. I would like to be able to add images to a collection but there is not a set amount, I would like to user to be able to add as many images (from the camera) as they need to. Therefore the collection would need to be dymanic? Or would all the images be stored in the one field? Hope this makes sense and hope you can help. Many thanks

Shane, I’m just starting to learn power apps, thanks for your videos, they’re awesome. The issue I’m having whilst putting this demo together. When I put the second lot of labels in at the bottom and group them, then apply the patch, rather than editing an existing record, it adds a new record, rather than editing the existing one in the gallery?

Hello, i created a collection by collecting datas from different galleries(different data sources). Is there a way for me to patch and get the collection up on sharepoint, like create a new list based of the new collection. Basically the context is, the students get to choose the courses that they wish to take from different subjects and that directs them to a summary page with all their choices. and when they click confirm, (this is what i want to achieve) their choices gets recorded and saved into a list on sharepoint which i can view. Would appreciate if you can give me some advice on this!!

Great video, very helpful, thanks. Do you have tips for avoiding duplicates going into a collection and maybe even with a message “already exists”?

Shane, Thanks again for the great videos! I have one question, how do you take several forms on different screens and put them into a collection, then submit them to a sharepoint list. I use Collect( CollectReport, {All my stuff}) on each of the screens then a Collect( 'Sharepoint List', MyCollection). It will not write to the sharepoint list and will create a row of data for each form in my collection?!?! Not sure what Im doing wrong, any Ideas??

One of MANY great videos! This helped me greatly! I'm trying to go one step further in the Collection area. I have a form for requesting Exchange resources. These resources have multiple security groups. Most of them will have the same users in each security group. Others will have some but not all. What I want to do, is have the user have an option to click a button to copy the users from say fullAccessCollection to sendasCollection. Then they will have the option to edit the sendascollection to add or remove more users. I'm trying to make the User Experience as simple as possible to speed up the process of filling out the forms. I can have up to 7 security groups with some having duplicate data. I've scoured the web but haven't found much of anything addressing this possibility. Any suggestions you give would be appreciated!!!

Smart Presentation style...i like it. In Javanesse language is "Jos Tenan"

Hello Shane, first of all many thanks for your effective presentations. They have often given me the necessary food for thought with my Powerapps problems. At the moment I have a problem that I can't get solved. I thought this video would help me, but somehow I'm stuck. I have a sharepoint list that contains all the computers in my company. I filter this list by my department and display it in a collection. I would like to include individual records from this collection in a form. Unfortunately, I cannot do this. Please excuse my inconvenience but my English is not that special. I hope you have some time.

Thank you Shane! Can I ask in some of your other videos you used the 'Parent (Default)' as the second input for the patch, what is the purpose of using the Parent Default input?

Awesome 👍 well explained

Hi Shane, thanks for the video, can you also please let us know how we can store values into CRM on submit (for Ex:- lead creation , i have few text boxes on view , on click of submit , data should go to CRM)

thank you so much man

Hello Shane!! Thanks for the video... I'm in a difficult situation... I have two tables, and in one of them i have a item (Score) thats need the value of a datacard from the other table, but with the specific Value ... how can i pickup that value from the other form with the specified item?? Thanks for the Help!!

Hey Shane, Thanks for the video and all the other ones you put out, they really help me out. I have a question about how collections are stored in memory and I was hoping maybe you could shed some light on this. For instance, if I were to create an web store in powers apps, and I wanted to create a collection of selected products to populate a gallery, how long does a collection stay in memory and who will have access to it. I would want to make this site publicly facing, with the customers not having any unique identifier or set permissions for them. Thanks, Chris Benoit

Can you make this same setup work with checkboxes? For example...have a gallery of items and go through and check some of them and the status is changed on just the selected items? I loathe checkboxes but have a project where it is what I am needing.

Love all these Lessons - you're Awesome!! Shane when editing details from the collection... the coding we used was Gallery1.Selected.@#$#@ (name of the list-item in the collection). I'm trying to find the coding for a Dropdown Box can you help? this is what i'm using to add the dropdown item to the collection: {Managed: Managed_YN.Selected.Value} (the dropdown options are Yes, No) How do I pull this to the Edit Screen?? Gallery1.Selected.Manged isn't working LOL..

Hi Shane, First, I love your work - you are a wealth of knowledge and experience. Thank you. I'm trying to create a collection that adds to a SP list. The process is: (i) fields of {text, date, dropdown and attachment} to collect, (ii) view collection of four fields, (iii) collect/patch collection to SP [same as your halloween Patch, Collect, and ForAll video). However, I get an incompatibility error as the SP column (Title) wants a record, but the PA attachment is a table [name & value]. Is this why you made two videos about attaching files to SP (based off Ramerio's idea) - because the three step process I have (enter, view collection, collect/patch) can never work with an attachment? The reason why I liked what you did here was because one could edit the item details before confirming.

Very helpful.. you are doing very good.. thank you very much.

Shane, can you run more than one function on a button click?On Select of the button to Save, I'd like also to Save (Patch) the collection and switch the display move of the Grouped item back to View from Edit.Great show, just getting into PowerApps and the short snap approach works well for my aging brain cells.Keep up the good work.

Love your video

Hello Shane! How can I save attachments (images) when offline? I have an Attachment Column in a Sharepoint List where I store the images. Thanks!

Hi Shane, Thank you for such a wonderful video. Need Clarity how to disable the Edit mode after saving the changes .

Shane! I need you. My teachers now say that when there is no internet , the patching is lost. Obviously because the patching is in the last button when they select all the options in the drop-down. Is there a way to prevent this? Save the evaluation to a point so they can come back and continue the teacher evaluation ?

Thanks buddy 👍
