New problem Cascading dropdown with choice type columns

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 691

Hello, I have 2 SharePoint lists with "Choice" type columns that look like this :

I would like to create "Cascading Dropdown" on a form with Power Apps, by connecting to my SharePoint lists. But I don't understand at all how to do this with choice type columns. Everything I try fails. 😞

For example, I tried to write this:

 

s44_0-1650009347716.png

s44_1-1650009394463.png

 

But when I launch my Power Apps form, it doesn't work, the items of "Filiere" are empty :

Can you help me please ? Thanks in advance ><

    Hi @s44 ,

    Try this

    Distinct(
     AddColumns(
     Filter(
     'Categorie et Filiere'; 
     Categorie.Value = DataCardValue2.Selected.Value
     ),
     "FiliereValue",
     Filiere.Value
     ),
     FiliereValue
    ).Result

    I just tried your solution, but I still have the same problem. The items of "Filiere" are empty on the Power Apps form 😞 @WarrenBelz

    What Shane Young does in his video doesn't work. Because I have ComboBoxes and not DropDowns @Pavan_Mani_Deep

    Indeed the video does not offer any solution to solve your problem. But I'm just as stuck as you. It's a very strange problem.

    @s44 ,

    How many items are in the list 'Categorie et Filiere' ? The Distinct filter is not Delegable

    I have 7 lines ^^ @WarrenBelz

    @s44 ,

    The syntax is valid - I just did a test here to confirm this as below - Items of the second combo box

    WarrenBelz_0-1650022069932.png

    and the output

    WarrenBelz_1-1650022114175.png

    Are you sure this is not a data issue?

    I'm sure, but here "Source de données" is grayed out. Maybe that's the problem? @WarrenBelz
