How to create a component with a table output parameter

Posted on by tbeimel

Hi community,

I want to create a component that creates a table for me and returns it. I've created a new property with the Type output and the data type table. In this I try to create a new table with the patch function.

e.g

Patch(

GetDataByTitle;

Defaults(GetDataByTitle);

{Ressourcenname: newRessourcename}

);;

I get the error message that the name "GetDataByTitle" is not recognized.

What do I need to do to create and populate a table?

Hi @gcmfaizan,
Thanks for your reply. However, I get the following message on Patch():
Behavioral function in a non-behavioral property. This property can't be used to change values elsewhere in the app.

Re: How to create a component with a table output parameter

Hi @tbeimel ,
Try to pass the Datasource name by using the input property type table.

for example:
Component Name is: AlfaComponent
Input Property Name: IP_newRessourcename (Type text)
Input Property Name is: IP_TableName (Type is table)
Output Property Name: Op_TablePatch

Create a sample table in IP_TableName don't forget to add your column name "Ressourcenname"

Now write your Patch query like this:

Patch( AlfaComponent.IP_TableName, Defaults(AlfaComponent.IP_TableName), {Ressourcenname: AlfaComponent.IP_newRessourcename} )

When you add this component to your screen in IP_TableName property pass your actual table name and in IP_newRessourcename pass the dynamic value. Please make sure Ressourcenname column name must exist in your actual table.
