Restrict SharePoint list view/edit access but allow record creation through PowerApps.

Posted on by lisha 76
Hello Everyone,
 
I have a PowerApps application, where I have entered details using form and viewing in the gallery.  and the Datasource I am using is SharePoint, creating the lists.
For accessing the data in powerapps, we have to give all the users access to sharepoint site. which automatically give permission to view the list from sharepoint to all users.
I want to restrict the users editing and viewing permission but they should have access to create and modify record from Powerapps.
How can we implement this , so that no one can change any record from backend to make the details secure.

    Hi @lisha
    If you create a custom permission level in SharePoint based on Contribute, but with View Application Pages unchecked, the users should not be able to access any SharePoint view on the list. There are also ways of hiding the list - this video may be useful to you.

    You can use Power Automate as a mediator between powerapps and sharepoint to achieve it.. Give permission to the user of powerautomate in the Sharepoint list to create and update.. The same goes with the retrieving as well..
    Its an indirect task, but this should be one of the approach...
