Getting Ready for App In a Day
Join us for a hands-on, immersive training designed to empower you with the skills to build custom business applications using Microsoft Power Apps and Power Automate—all in just one day! Whether you're a beginner or have some experience, this workshop will guide you step-by-step through the process of creating a fully functional app without writing a single line of code.
Step 1: Get Your Environment
- Recommended: Create a developer environment or trial environment (if your IT allows)
- Standup a Sandbox environment (IT likely must do this for you in the admin center)
- Use our temporary environment. This is given to you the day of the class if you attend live.
- To use this, you must have Microsoft Authenticator installed on your phone prior to class.

Step 2: Prep Your Environment
With the environment created, we'll now get it prepped with a sample application. We use this application to create sample data for our class. You can see step by step instructions in the video at the top of this page.
Steps:
- Download the student files and uncompress the zip file but do not uncompress any other files in this zip file.
- Go to your developer environment you created earlier to use during this class.
- On the left side, click Tables. Then, select New Table--> From Table (Advanced Properties).
- Name the table whatever you want. This is less about creating the table and more about making sure you have permissions.
- Click Save.
- If it lets you save, you're good to go! If not, you'll need a different environment or our environment the day of the event.
- Nothing beats a live event but if you can't make the event, you can find a recording link below.
