Decoding Connectors: Insights into Data Sources

To unravel the intricacies of connectors and their practical applications, a foundational grasp of the types of data sources they link to is essential.



Tabular Data

A tabular data source is one that returns data
in a structured table format.
Power Apps can directly read and
display these tables through galleries,
forms, & other controls.

Function-Based Data

A function-based data source utilizes
functions to interact with data,
providing not only the ability
to retrieve a table of data but also
perform actions like sending emails,
updating permissions, or creating calendar
events.
