How to Export Custom List View of SharePoint using Canvas App
Before I say anything, you click on this link to understand what will happen in this article. This blog will explain how to export custom list view of SharePoint using Canvas APP. Basically this blog is continuation of my previous blog “Get Custom Lists & respective Views using PowerApps Canvas App“.
Let’s go and straight away jump into the solution part of Export Custom List View of SharePoint. Below is the screen of my updated app.
In the above app, I have added four extra labels and an export view button. Each set of labels will store list name & ID and view name & ID respectively.
I have also modified the flow a bit. Basically updated flow screen shot is provide below.
- PowerApps Get Lists Flow
- We have added “;Name” in the value parameter
- By doing above step we are collecting string like “Listname;ListID” in drop down
4. Update Get Views Flow.
5. In this flow also we are storing string like “ViewName;ViewID” in drop down.
Updated code for apps are given below.
1. List Name Label
First(Split(Dropdown1.Selected.Result,";")).Result
2. List ID Label
Last(Split(Dropdown1.Selected.Result,";")).Result
3. Fetch View Button
Set(viewdetails,GetViews.Run(TextInput1.Text,Label4))
4. View Name Label
First(Split(Dropdown1_1.Selected.Result,";")).Result
5. View ID Label
Last(Split(Dropdown1_1.Selected.Result,";")).Result
6. Export View Button
Launch(TextInput1.Text&"/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?CS=109&Using=_layouts/query.iqy&List="&Label5&"&View="&Label6_1&"&CacheControl=1")
