This document provides an overview and demonstration of PowerApps. It begins by listing reasons to use PowerApps such as working across devices and having over 200 connectors. It then demonstrates how to create an app from data like a SharePoint list, customize SharePoint forms, tour the canvas interface, use different controls, work with data, and set variables. Key concepts discussed include how formulas pull rather than push values and using properties and intellisense. References for additional learning are also provided.
I presented this session at SharePoint Saturday Cambridge on Sept 8, 2018. Most of the presentation was actually done in a PowerApp, which was provided to attendees.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images

5. WHY POWERAPPS?
Work where you work
Designed for mobile devices (but also browser)
Over 200 Connectors available
No/Low code
Successor to InfoPath for SharePoint forms
Have you tried
PowerApps yet?
Objective of this session
Show you around PowerApps, give
you some ideas of how you can go
further
6. GETTING STARTED
Create from data
(e.g. SharePoint list)
– automatic 3-
screen app
Create from one of
the templates, and
learn from it
Customize forms in a
SharePoint list
https://powerapps.Microsoft.co
m
NEW!
Model-driven
apps
… or start from blank
7. CREATE FROM DATA (DEMO)
Automatically gives you a 3-screen “working” app, but you’ll likely want to make a few initial
changes.
Edit the gallery layout - default is (now) “Title, Subtitle, and body”, but perhaps the fields need to be
rearranged
Edit the fields being displayed (on each screen)
NOTE: An app created based on a SharePoint list will show up as an available View for that list, to users
with whom the app has been shared.
8. CUSTOMIZE SHAREPOINT FORMS (DEMO)
Automatically gives you a single Form screen with New/Edit/View modes
Change the screen size and orientation under App Settings (Landscape/Large makes a nice SharePoint list
pane). Best to change this first before laying out fields.
Use the Data pane to select which fields to display. Use Snap to columns and Horizontal/Vertical Layout to
make easy layout changes.
Each field is displayed on a “card”, which can be unlocked to make changes. Use the Visible property to
conditionally display a field (example: Parent.DisplayMode=“view”). Set DisplayMode to
DisplayMode.View to make a field non-editable (view-only).
The SharePointIntegration object is what ties it to your SharePoint list. Use List Settings > Form Settings to
switch back to the standard SharePoint form.
Customized forms are not currently available to external (guest) users.
NOTE: These “apps” are not available in the list of Apps – they only work within the context of the SharePoint
list, in the browser or in the SharePoint mobile app. However, admins can see a list of PowerApps-customized
forms in the Admin Center.
SharePoint form customization reference:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/customize-list-
10. CONTROLS (DEMO/APP)
A control is
any object
you add to
the canvas
Properties of one control can
be referenced in another
control. Example:
txtNameInput.Text
Also, a control can reference
its own properties.
It’s a good practice to
rename controls
meaningfully right after
creating them. (Renaming
later also works.)
Example: btnSubmit
Controls documentation:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/reference-
Values are generally pulled,
not pushed. So enter a
formula in the control you
wish to affect.
Exception: “On” properties
(OnSelect, OnStart, etc)
11. DATA (DEMO/APP)
Data source: connection to data. Not only lists of data, but also includes things like O365 Users or Bing
maps. Access connections via the View menu, or from within a control such as a Gallery.
Gallery and Data Table controls display data sets
Collection: temporary storage of data in an array (table)
13. IMPORTANT BASIC CONCEPTS
Remember that a “button” can also be a Label or an Image.
You can access all properties of a control either in the right pane, or in the properties dropdown.
Select multiple controls to quickly set common properties. Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V to copy/paste controls. Group
controls to display/hide them together using the Visible property.
Formulas are in the controls which they affect, not where you might enter data. For example, the Search
box in a pre-built app is referred to in the Gallery where you want the results displayed, so the formula
(what to search) goes in the Items property of the Gallery. Values are pulled, not pushed.
Intellisense, colors, and tooltips are your friends when writing formulas.
Complex fields (such as O365 users or SharePoint lookup columns) usually require a modifier in a
formula (e.g. Brewery.Value or Office365Users.UserProfile(aUserEmail).JobTitle)
