Unable to poopulate collection from string recovered from SharePoint Column

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi,

I'm new to PowerApps and hope my question is clear.

I have a list on SharePoint with a text type column name "Param", storing values ​​like :

 

 

 

{"Property1":"London","Property2":"1"}
{Property1:"London",Property2:"1"}

 

 

 

Note : (I tried with " and without)

 

In my PowerApps application I want to store in a collection the values ​​of my SharePoint column. I tried manually to collect data like this and it worked :

 

 

 

Collect(Questions, {Property1:"Paris",Property2:"2"})

 

 

 

Now, I want from my gallery. To do so, I use the following code in my "OnSelect" from the gallery :

 

 

 

Collect(Questions,Gallery.Selected.Param);

 

 

 

 But there is the result in my collection "Questions", the first row is the "manually" set record :

Property1Property2Value
Paris2 
  {"Property1":"London","Property2":"1"}
  {Property1:"London",Property2:"1"}

 

With this, I can't access to the Property1 from the record 2 and 3.

What did I do wrong ?

Thanks
