Power Pages: Multiselect List
May 31, 2026 2 Min.To ReadI recently received a question from Gil Shalem about adding bulk edit capabilities to a Power Pages List. Nothing like that exists out of the box, so if this is a requirement on your project, you’ll need to explore using some custom code to accomplish this. Over the next few blog posts, I’ll work through some of the pieces you could use to add bulk edit capabilities to a list. To get started, let’s look at how you can allow users to select multiple rows of the list.

March 31, 2026 2 Min.To ReadI was lucky once again to attend the MVP Summit at Microsoft campus in Redmond, Washington last week.

Power Pages: Adding a Custom Form Modal to List Action Buttons
December 8, 2023 6 Min.To ReadRecently there was a comment on my blog Power Apps Portals: Related Entity as Source of Next Web Form Step about adding a custom Edit button to a list or subgrid. In this case, rather than editing the main row in the table, they wanted to edit a row that was related to the main row.
