Power Apps Code Apps - Read Query Parameters

Did you know Power Apps Code Apps can read URL query parameters just like canvas apps but with a completely different approach? In this video, I'll show you exactly how to retrieve query parameters in Power Apps Code Apps using the Context API, filter SharePoint list data dynamically, and even send deep links via Power Automate emails. This is one of those techniques that unlocks real-world enterprise scenarios, imagine sending a user a direct link to their specific record, and the app automatically opens that record in a popup. That's exactly what we build here, step by step. We also cover how to handle multiple parameters, what happens during development vs. production, and why parameter names are case-sensitive (a small mistake that causes big headaches). The Context object gives you access to three powerful data groups: app (which includes query parameters, app ID, environment ID), user (display name, AAD ID), and host (session ID). You don't need to install anything extra, it comes built-in with the Code Apps tooling once you run npm install. We use it to grab the ID param, filter a SharePoint list, and conditionally render a dialog component based on whether that param exists. 📥 Code: https://github.com/swaminawale/PowerApps-Code-Apps-Tutorials/tree/main/read-query-parameter-using-context 👍 If this helped you, smash the like button and subscribe for weekly Power Platform, SPFx, and Copilot Studio tutorials. 💬 Drop your questions in the comments, I respond to every one. 📌 Subscribe for more Sharing is Caring 💕
