Leave request app

The leave request app is a good example of a generated PowerApp that can quickly add value to organizations that don't rely on an already established system so that you can manage leave requests. It creates a number of screens that show you how you can use various controls and methods of navigation to achieve quite a common business use case.

This PowerApp creates two connections: one to Outlook in order to save and retrieve leave information in your Outlook calendar and another to the Microsoft Graph in the shape of Office 365 users. This allows the PowerApp to determine the line manager of the user requesting leave so that it can send emails.

The tablet version looks as follows:
