Hi there.  I'm building a phone list in PowerApps.  Looking good so far but I would like to add the department's director in a Text Label by searching the Job Title.  I found a way to do this in a Gallery by using the Filter formula but wonder if it is possible to have it show up in a Text Label.    Example, in a Text Label, I want it to show who the "Finance Director" is.  
 
Thank you for your time.

    Hi 
     
    Its hard to truly answer because you don't mention how the Department is selected, so that it shows the correct departments Director. And are you talking about having it in the Gallery (like every line will show the same value?? or outside the gallery?)
     
    Since I don't know the answers I will give you the pseudo answer
     
    In the Labels, Text property
    Where I have Department = Test put whatever value you have there from a text box or gallery or somethying and change JobTitle
    LookUp(Office365Users.SearchUser(), Department = "Test" And JobTitle = "Finance Director").DisplayName;
