Correct answer & explanation
✓
Use a canvas app with offline capability and the Camera and Signature controls, syncing to Dataverse when online
Canvas apps in Power Apps support offline capability, and the Camera and Signature controls can capture images and signatures while offline, syncing to Dataverse when connectivity is restored. Option A is incorrect because a SharePoint list with Power Apps integration does not support offline capture of images and signatures; SharePoint requires connectivity for such data. Option B is incorrect because although the Offline template and Dataverse provide offline capabilities, the Offline template is designed for basic data types and does not inherently support image and signature capture; you would need to use Camera and Signature controls as in option C. Option D is incorrect because model-driven apps with Dataverse offline sync have limitations on which controls can be used offline, and typically they do not support the Camera and Signature controls in the same way a canvas app does.
