Power Apps PDF Function Introduction - Native

Power Apps Tutorial video introducing the new PDF function | Create PDF Documents from Screens, Galleries & Containers

Power Fx PDF function allows us to create PDF documents directly from PowerApps screens, galleries and containers.

The generated PDF Blob can be leveraged to showcase the PDF in a PDF Viewer control in Power Apps, or send an email with PDF File attachments from Power Apps or save the generated PDF File to a data source like SharePoint Document Library with the help of Power Automate flow.

PDF function video in Power Apps covers the following:

• PDF Function introduction
• PDF function options (Orientation - Landscape or Portrait, Size - Paper Size A1,A2, etc., Margin, DPI and ExpandContainers)
• PDF function Expand Containers (Shows all gallery items, can be used for Scrollable screen, form control, DataTable, etc.)
• Generate PDF from Power Apps Gallery or Collection or Data Table
• Generate PDF from Power Apps Screen
• Generate PDF from Power Apps Container
• Generate PDF from Power Apps Form Control
• Send PDF as email attachment from PowerApps
• Save PDF generated in Power Apps to SharePoint
• Generate PDF in PowerApps from SharePoint List Item Attachments (Camera, Pen Input, Upload Picture).
