A Microsoft open-source framework for building native device applications spanning mobile, tablet, and desktop.
Hello @Douglas N. Gray ,
Thanks for your question.
The assessment question has a flaw. It explicitly states you are building a "Canvas app," but the answer it marks as correct actually belongs to a completely different type of application called a "Model-driven app."
- In a Canvas app: The
Navigate()function strictly requires you to provide the name of a Screen (for example,Navigate(Screen1)orNavigate(BrowseScreen)). You cannot navigate directly to a raw data table like Accounts because a Canvas app does not automatically know what visual layout or screen to use to display that data to the user. - In a Model-driven app: Microsoft automatically generates the screens and data views for you. When you are customizing the command buttons at the top of a Model-driven app, using
Navigate(Accounts)is the correct formula to open the default view of the Accounts table.
I hope this addresses your question. If this response was helpful, please consider following the guidance to provide feedback.
