Collect data from dropdowns to SharePoint list

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 376

Hi together,

 

I have an app that collects input data from users and inserts it in a SP list. Within the app I have two dropdowns with projects that are from another SP list, so the users can only choose between these projects.

 

The two dropdowns have the following formulas:

 

Sort(Distinct('RnD project WBS';'Project Name');Value)

 

and 

 

Filter('RnD project WBS';'Project Name'=ddl_ProjectName.SelectedText.Value)

 

My question is:

 

How can I get these inputs insert in my SP list where all the other data of the Power App is collected.

 

Thanks for supporting!

    Hi @IvenSch ,

     

    Do you have a form in your App? Are the two dropdowns in the form?

     

    I assume the two columns in the SP list are both LookUp columns. If they are in an edit form, Update of the two fields/Data Cards would be:

    LookUp(Choices(ListName.Project); Value = ddl_ProjectName.Selected.Value)
    LookUp(Choices(ListName.ColumnName1); Value = Dropdown2.Selected.ColumnName2)
    //ColumnName1 is the column for Dropdown2
    //ColumnName2 is the column in 'RnD project WBS' list

     

    Best regards,
