Variable Prefix Customization

Ultra users can now customize the naming conventions for all PowerApps controls! Set your own prefixes to match your team's coding standards.

Variable Prefix Settings

What You Can Customize:

Control Prefixes:

  • Labels (default: lbl)
  • Buttons (default: btn)
  • Galleries (default: gal)
  • Containers (default: con)
  • Icons (default: ico)
  • Images (default: img)
  • Text labels (default: txt)

Variable Prefixes:

  • Local Variables (default: var)
  • Global Variables (default: gbl)

How to Use:

  • Open Settings from your profile menu
  • Scroll to "Variable Naming" section (Ultra only)
  • Enter your preferred prefixes
  • Click "Save Changes" - the page will reload
  • All new component generations will use your custom prefixes!

Examples:

Different teams use different standards:

  • Underscore style: `_`, `_btn`, `_lbl`
  • Short style: `b`, `l`, `g`
  • Descriptive: `local`, `app`, `glb`

Leave any prefix blank to generate names without prefixes!

What's Included:

This feature works for all components in the library. Every component you generate will use your custom prefixes.

Perfect for teams with established coding standards or developers who prefer specific naming conventions!
