Question details

The user is unable to locate the Customize in Power Apps button within Microsoft Lists, or customized forms are not appearing properly after being edited.

Product: Microsoft Lists / Power Apps
Device & OS: not provided
Scenario: Attempting to customize list forms using Power Apps, particularly on enterprise accounts or lists originally created via SharePoint.
Observed behavior: The Customize in Power Apps button is missing from the list interface, or changes published in Power Apps fail to display when viewing the Microsoft Lists form.

Before you start

Ensure you have the necessary editing permissions for the list and verify that you are actively logged into your Microsoft 365 enterprise, work, or school account.

Solution 1Recommended

Access Customization via the Integrate Menu

Use this method if the user interface has been updated and the button is no longer visible on the main command bar.

Microsoft frequently updates the user interface for Microsoft Lists and SharePoint. The customization button has been relocated to a dedicated integration menu for better organization.

Open the list view menu

Navigate to your Microsoft List or SharePoint list and look at the top command bar.

Select the Integrate option

Click on 'Integrate' in the menu bar to open a dropdown of available integrations.

Open Power Apps customization

Hover over 'Power Apps' and select 'Customize forms' from the submenu.

Publish your changes

After making changes in Power Apps, ensure you explicitly publish the changes, then return to the list to verify the customized form appears.

User Interface Differences: The interface layout may differ slightly depending on whether the list was created directly in Microsoft Lists, through SharePoint, or using an enterprise account.

Solution 2

Access Form Customization via List Settings

Use this alternative method if the Integrate menu is missing or if you are using an older SharePoint interface.
