Creating a Power Apps Form from an Existing JSON List Form

Hello Community, 

I am working on a SharePoint List Form with JSON formatting. The JSON is use primarily for organizing and hiding select fields in the form. 

My question is this, is it possible to create a Power Apps Form by importing the JSON List Form? Is there a way to do that while still having the JSON formatting still in place? 

Put another way, I know Power Apps can create an form from the list, however, I’m curious if there is a way to create the Power App Form directly from the SharePoint List Form with JSON formatting.

 In the case this is not possible, is there a way to easily reuse the existing JSON code logic in the Power Apps form.

Thanks! 

Tom

    There is no option to create the Power Apps form directly from the SharePoint list form with JSON formatting. And also, there is no way to easily reuse the existing JSON code logic in the Power Apps form.

    Power Apps and JSON formatting are two separate features and cannot be used with each other.
