This is a beginner-to-intermediate level workshop for you to get hands on experience with PowerApps and Common Data Service. The instructor will spend the first 1 hour talking about PowerApps focusing on key features covered on the lab. 

The lab includes step-by-step instructions to build a device ordering solution in a day using the PowerApps Canvas App. Each app will have two data connections, one is from an Excel spreadsheet in OneDrive and the other is either an entity in Common Data Service or a SharePoint List. The student gets to decide which one he/she would like to use.
