Creating News Application using Flow and Power Apps ( Part -1 )

Create a Flow to fetch the latest news from Public API

Step 1 :-

                 Login to Power Automate using work or School account . Add a PowerApps Trigger - > add HTTP Action card.

**You can find public API which are available online for free. Here is the Top Free News API's.
News API, Bing News Search API, Bloomberg API etc....

In this Tutorial I am using News API to fetch the latest news.

Just Login to News API and generate API Key. Once you Login to the News API there you will see news from different sources. Choose any one of the source.

Once you generate the API Key , redirect to the Flow Portal in HTTP Action Card choose the method as GET and paste the URI [ if you choose any one of the source you will get url with API key included in that].

Choose Authentication mode as None.




Step 2 :- 

                Now Run the Flow. Copy the Output of HTTP Trigger. Add Parse JSON Action Card -> Select the Body from Dynamic content and add it in Content of Parse JSON. Click on Generate from Sample, Paste the output of HTTP action card and click on Done.

Now Flow will generate the schema automatically.

                            



Step 3 :- 

                Add Response trigger. Click on Generate from Sample -> Paste the output of HTTP action card and add the Body from Parse JSON.

                                

  Once you run the flow then in the Output of Response you will see the news which are coming in JSON Format. 

That's the end of the Part-1....... 
In Next Tutorial you will see the PowerApps Screens. 


Have a Great Day !!!! Keep Learning !!!!✌👍👍👍
