Hi @Cris2,

If you have a separate form that is shown on the portal you can change the label directly in the model driven app. If you have only one form and need to change the label only on portal you can do it with javascript. Explore the page to find the id of the label element for the subgrid and then using js find that element by id and set the value.

@Cris2

You can modify column attributes using list configuration->override column attributes for the list.

FYI, please find reference link below,
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/portals/configure/entity-lists#list-attributes-and-relationships

If it answers your question, kindly give kudo and accept it as solution.

Thanks. I am aware of using a second form. But wanted to use the same single form. Could you please let me know:
1. How to find the control id?
2. Where should I insert the javascript?
3. Sample javascript to do this.

Thanks

Thanks Prakash, I'm aware of changing the column names in metadata, and looking to override the SubGrid label.

Thanks

@Cris2 ,

To modify subgrid list labels, you can do it from entity form metadata of subgrid.

@Cris2 you need to open developer tools in your browser and use inspect element to highlight necessary label that you would like to change (see example below):

Then you can use for property and write something like this to change the label:

$(document).ready(function() { $("label[for='Subgrid_1']").text("New test label"); });

You can add this code into Custom Javascript field under Additional Settings tab in your basic form.

You should be able to do that via Metadata @Cris2

if you can't get it working, please share a few snapshots with us so we can better understand your problem

Hi Oliver,
The metadata for SubGrids has no option to change the form list label. We can only change the column/attribute heading in the lookup dialog.
Thanks
