Adding Your System View in the App Designer
After you have saved and published a new System View, the final step is to add it to the App. From Power Apps, choose Apps from the side navigation bar. Then choose All to see all Apps. Select the App that your organization uses, either akoyaGO or akoyaGO with Accounting.
From this screen, choose the entity (also known as table) under which you built your System View. The System Views for this entity will be listed in the sidebar. Scroll down to the "Not in this app" section to find your new System View.
If the Not in this App section isn't visible but a toggle for 'Include all views in this app' is set to On, then you can disregard the last steps as your new view is already added to the app.
Click the 3 dots and choose + Add. This will add your new view to the App. Lastly, click Publish.
