Copresence allows multiple makers to access an app together while working in Power Apps Canvas Studio.

Feature details

Multiple makers can now access an app in Power Apps Canvas Studio together and discover each other's copresence. Copresence provides the following benefits:

  • Only one editor is allowed, but other makers can now access the app in the Power Apps Canvas Studio in read-only mode.
  • Icons and names of people who have the app open are displayed with indicators to show who is editing the app and who's viewing it.
  • Read-only labels are displayed to indicate to makers that they're in read-only mode
  • While in read-only mode, makers will receive notification for saved changes made from the current editor. Then, they'll be prompted to refresh the app to stay on the latest version so as not to lose their work or overwrite others' work later.
