An Access web app is a new type of database that you build in Access, then use and share with others as a SharePoint app in a web browser. To build an app, you just select the type of data you want to track (contacts, tasks, projects, and so on). Access creates the database structure, complete with views that let you add and edit data. Navigation and basic commands are built-in, so you can start using your app right away. When you use an Access web app, your data is automatically stored in a SQL database, so it is more secure than ever and it allows for added reliability, scalability, and long-term manageability. Access web apps can now be easily managed and monitored through a company SharePoint site in a browser. This enables multi-user accessibility and the permissions control expected from SharePoint along with visibility on app usage. You can utilize existing app templates and table templates to quickly get started building an Access web app. These templates have an attractive, easy-to-use interface and consistent user experience that can grow with your business. Access deals with the code that creates this professional look and feel. You will have a new app running in minutes! |
