Send Power Apps cards

  • 2 minutes

You can create cards for your personal use. However, many scenarios require input from people at the same organization as the maker.

You can display and share a Power Apps card in Microsoft Teams within the context of a chat, a meeting, or a channel.

To provide the interactive experience of the card, you need to ensure that Power Apps is installed in Teams.

The two methods for sending a card in Teams are:

  • Copy the link from the Play option of the card designer studio.

  • Use a Microsoft Power Automate cloud flow with the Create card instance action from the Cards for Power Apps connector.

The first method requires a manual intervention from the card maker. For scenarios where an automated process is required to send the card, such as Send an approval card when a new vendor is created, consider using the Power Automate cloud flow method.
