To connect Power Apps to data sources, open your Canvas App in Power Apps Studio, go to the Data panel, click Add Data, choose your connector (such as SharePoint, SQL Server, Excel, or Dataverse), and select the table or list you want to use. Once added, the data source becomes available inside your app for forms, galleries, and formulas.
Power Apps does not store data by itself. Instead, it connects securely to external systems where your business data already exists. After creating the connection, you can read, update, create, and delete records directly from your app.
Commonly used data sources include:
- SharePoint lists
- Excel files (stored in OneDrive or SharePoint)
- SQL Server databases
- Microsoft Dataverse
