Business value

This feature will allow makers to use dataset-based code components on portals to create custom UI elements used within forms and web pages on a portal.

Feature details

Power Apps component framework enables app makers to create dataset-based code components to use across apps. With general availability, we'll support dataset-based code components created using Power Apps component framework inside Power Apps portals.

This type of code components will allow controls on portal forms/web pages to be replaced/added with dataset-based code components. The configuration will typically involve configuring the code component in the corresponding table form in Microsoft Dataverse first. After that, the code component will be enabled on the portal using a basic form or advanced form step metadata configuration.

The following is an example of how a dataset-based component looks on a web page inside a portal:
