Forms overview
In model-driven Power Apps, forms allow users to interact with the data where they need to work. Data tables, where the data resides, can have one or more forms, and forms come in different types.
This video provides an overview of the different types of forms available in model-driven apps. The narrator describes Main, Quick Create, Quick View, and Card forms.
The following table describes the types of forms available in model-driven apps.
| Form type | Description | More information |
|---|---|---|
| Main | These forms provide the main user interface for viewing and interacting with table data. | Design considerations for main forms |
| Quick Create | For updated tables, these forms provide a basic form optimized for creating new records. | Create and edit quick create forms |
| Quick View | For updated tables, these forms appear within the main form to display more data for a row that a lookup column in the form references. Users can view data from related tables without having to leave the form. | Create and edit quick view forms |
| Card | Card forms are designed to present information in a compact format that is suitable for mobile devices. | Create a card form |
Each data table can have any or all of these form types associated with it. Remember, forms provide the way your users interact with the data, so they're built on top of the data.
Next, let's take a look at the form designer and the elements available.
