No not forms. A user group in our company has developed a powerapp for
mobile usage, making use of datasources such as SharePoint lists.
But part of the data comes from the IBM i, and they do now export that
in an obscure way. I'd like to bring in the IBM i data directly for
their app.

In my testing so far I found the standard connectors provided by MS
not suitable, and am now on the route to create custom connectors
against a REST API on our IBM i, and that looks promising so far..
