The most common type of data source is the table, which you can use to retrieve and store information. Apps are able to access these data sources by using Connections.

A common example is a table in an Excel file stored in OneDrive for Business. Most Power Apps apps use external information called Data Sources that is stored in cloud services. Your next step after this article is to display and manage data from the data source in your app, as in these examples: Your canvas app's data connection can connect to SharePoint, SQL Server, Office 365, OneDrive for Business, Salesforce, Excel, and many other data sources.

In, create a connection to one or more data sources, delete a connection, or update its credentials.
