Hey everyone! If you want to speed up your PowerApps workflow and boost performance, here are two proven tips that can make a huge difference:
✅ 1. Creating PDFs - Instead of complex workarounds, use the HTML Text Control with the PDF() Function. It’s lightweight and efficient for generating PDFs. This method is 10x faster than using PDF() Function with containers
✅ 2. Saving a Collection of Data - Avoid using ForAll() for bulk updates—it’s slow and resource-heavy. Instead, go for Direct Patch() for faster and smoother data operations.
==>> Patch(Datasource, myCollection)
You can get this to work by first saving the schema of the datasource into the collection by using this formula here: ClearCollect(myCollection, Filter(DataSource, false));
Update your collection with entries then patch back to the datasource.. it works 10x faster than using the ForAll()
🏁🏁These methods have been tested and deliver noticeable improvements. Try them out and let me know your results! 💡
