Power Apps SharePoint Document Library Tutorial

In this Power Apps tutorial video, we will explore how to create a fully featured SharePoint Document Library browsing experience in PowerApps.
We will preview documents using File Thumbnails, use PDF Viewer control for pdf & office files, filter with delegation on isFolder, folder path using a simple technique of folder default values, navigate through the SharePoint document library using a breadcrumb experience like modern SharePoint libraries.
All the above without using any Power Automate flows and keeping delegation in check wherein we can work with document libraries having more than the delegable limit of 2000 documents.
