Posted on by Brendon007

Hello,

I have one control before the DataCard with 2, which its set one or another. If the control is true get the info from the textfield, if not, get the info from the dropdown. How can I use that? And how the forms accept this? Because I tried a condition string but it reject, because the field expect a text and not opt content.

Ps.: For clarity, just only one control of the two will be displayed, the other would be hidden as the toggle sets.

Hi @Brendon007,

Is this LocalTest a text column in your Dataverse table?

Do you set the Items property of the dropdown control with a Choices()?

I suggest you use a AddColumns() to create a text column to save the choice as below:

AddColumns(Choices(OptionName),"LocalNew",Text(Value)).LocalNew

If so, I think you should set the Update property of this data card as below:

If(Toggle1.Value,dd.Selected.LocalNew,TextInput1.Text)

Qi,
LocalTest is a Text Field (because I think the Dropdown is just a formatting). And for Dropdown, I set values by a list " ['Auditório Diretoria Geral 1', 'Auditório Diretoria Geral 2'] ". I dont think I need create another column (LocalNew). I want use only one field in my SharePoint List, but with info comming from Power Apps. What I wish is if the meeting is presencial, show option, if isn't show text input for Teams Link.

Ps.: LocalTest is a Text Field at Sharepoint List

Thanks for reply 🙂

HI @Brendon007,

You set the Items property with list.LocalTest or ['Auditório Diretoria Geral 1', 'Auditório Diretoria Geral 2']?

Hope you could directly tell me this, which is the key to this issue.

I mean, if you populate the dropdown with a text column from SP list, we could capture it using dd.Selected.LocalTest, if you populate it with ['Auditório Diretoria Geral 1', 'Auditório Diretoria Geral 2'], then you need to refer to dd.Selected.Value, which is totally different.
