When building PowerApps, one common hurdle is working with nested galleries—especially when you need to update data from controls inside an inner gallery. Since inner gallery controls aren’t accessible outside their container, managing data updates can be tricky.
But don’t worry—just like an anime hero overcoming impossible odds, there’s a creative workaround to save the day! 💪
In this article, we’ll explore how to resolve this limitation using a Timer control and a Patch button placed inside the outer gallery.
The Problem: Limited Access in Nested Galleries 🥊
Imagine you’re creating an app to manage your favorite anime series. You have an outer gallery listing various shows—like:
Inside each show, there’s an inner gallery displaying characters from that series. Users can edit details like a character’s nickname directly within the inner gallery.
However, when it comes time to update the data, PowerApps won’t let you reference inner gallery controls from outside. This is like having hidden jutsus that only work in a specific area of the battlefield! ⚔️
