A. B. C. D. E.Correct Answer: D
The Components are reusable blocks that help you develop the Power Apps applications.
Power Apps provides out-of-the-box standard controls (components), like HTML Text, Vertical Gallery, or Edit Form.
If your Power Platform solution requires more than standard controls, Power Apps also provides tools to create and reuse the custom code components.
You don't need any special software to create a canvas app component.
You provision a new canvas app from blank.
Then create a component using the controls that Power Apps Studio provides.
After you save a component, you can export it in an export file.
The best way to maintain and share the component is to use the Component library.
You can create a library and import the component.
Or when you create a library, the Power Apps Studio creates a new canvas app.
You can create or import your component directly in this Library app and then use it for other apps.
When you need to add a component to the new canvas app, on the bottom of the Insert panel (Number 1), you click on the “Get more components” link (Number 2)
The studio opens the “Import components” panel (Number 3) with the Components libraries list.
Then you can select the component from the library (Number 4) and push the Import button (Number 5).

The Power Apps Studio imports the component and puts it under the Library components section on the Insert blade.

When you create a canvas app component, it can be reused in multiple canvas apps. To add the component to a canvas app, you first need to import the component into the app. Once the component is imported, you can add it to the screen in different ways depending on the location you want it to appear on the screen.
To find the component in the canvas app, you can follow these steps:
- Open the canvas app where you want to add the component.
- Click on the "Insert" tab on the left-hand side of the screen.
- On the Insert tab, you will see several options such as controls, media, data sources, etc. Scroll down to find the "Component" option and click on it.
- This will open the Insert component blade, where you can find the component that you imported earlier.
Now, let's take a look at the answer choices:
A. Under the Screens tab on the Tree view: This option is not correct because the Screens tab on the Tree view only shows the screens that are currently part of the canvas app. It does not show any imported components.
B. Under the Components tab on the Tree view: This option is not correct either because the Components tab on the Tree view only shows the components that are part of the canvas app. It does not show any imported components.
C. Under the Popular section on the Insert blade: This option is also not correct because the Popular section on the Insert blade only shows popular controls, not imported components.
D. Under the Library components section on the Insert blade: This is the correct option. When you import a component into a canvas app, it appears in the Library components section on the Insert blade. You can select the component from there and add it to the screen.
E. Under the Input section on the Insert blade: This option is not correct because the Input section on the Insert blade only shows input controls such as text boxes, combo boxes, etc. It does not show any imported components.
