(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 222

Created a combo box in a canvas app, based on a choice that has been create in Dataverse for Microsoft Teams. 
See example below:

When adding a combo box in the canvas app, I cannot display the values.

Code used for "items: is 

Choices(Year).Value
 
The combo box stays empty, no value from the choice (Option Set) is displayed: frederikbisback_1-1608361067215.png

    Try setting the Items property to just Years, or whatever the plural for your option is under advanced settings.  The Choices syntax is for SharePoint.

    Choices can be used for Dataverse tables, but it's commonly used for Edit forms. 

    Choices function - Power Apps | Microsoft Docs

    I want to mention that this will only provide the choices that are within the table not all the options you have. I believe similar to "Distinct" . I tried this and since I have items that don't have a certain status it won't show that as an option in the combobox. Also you should add "Distinct" to show one of each status.
