Hello, i  want to explain my case first and ask the question in the end.

 

I have a dropdown with multiple choices selected. In there, i have about 8 different choices i can make. Depending on which choice/choices i take, i want a different outcome on my next dropdown. I know with the "Filter" and "If" function i can say that, if this specific choice is selected it will show specifc data to choose from in the next dropdown. My question is, how can i combine it, so it will show them all when i selected multiple choices. For example, i selected Choice 1,2 and 3 from the first dropdown. I then want to see the specific choices of all 3 prior selected in the second dropdown

    Hi @liingy ,

    Try This 

    To display specific choices in the second dropdown based on multiple selections from the first dropdown in PowerApps, use the Filter and Collect functions:

    ClearCollect(
     NextDropdownOptions,
     If("Choice 1" in Dropdown1.SelectedItems.Value, Collect(NextDropdownOptions, Filter(Choices, Condition1))),
     If("Choice 2" in Dropdown1.SelectedItems.Value, Collect(NextDropdownOptions, Filter(Choices, Condition2))),
     If("Choice 3" in Dropdown1.SelectedItems.Value, Collect(NextDropdownOptions, Filter(Choices, Condition3)))
     // ...repeat for other choices
    );
    
    // Set the Items property of the second dropdown to:
    Dropdown2.Items = NextDropdownOptions


    Replace Dropdown1, Dropdown2, Choices, and Condition1, Condition2, Condition3 with your specific control names and conditions.
