{How to} add table columns to forms and views automatically in Power Platform

Hello Everyone,

Today i am going to share new feature which is in Preview is how to add table columns to forms and views automatically once the field is created on the table.
Lets gets started.
Suppose you have a  requirement to create a field on custom or system table and adding it to the forms and views.
Previously it was like create a field and manually add it to forms and views.
Now its automatically adds to forms and views.
Lets see in action.
I have created a custom table called: “Add Column Automatically”

 

Then i have created a field called “New Features”.

 

Add the column automatically columns and data: field “new features”

Now click on “Update forms and views” and update the forms and views by selecting appropriate forms and views.

 

Now Open the form which and see the new field “new feature” is added to it.
Now Open the view and check the “new feature” has been added.
So this new feature saves alot of time for the app makers.
I hope this helps.
