Probleme bei mehrfache Bedingungen in Switch-Funktion

Hello everyone,

I am working on my file explorer, which is supposed to access files and folders from two document libraries.
Users can access the SharePoint document libraries "DL_Permission" or "Dokumente2" via the DropDown control "SelectionDirectory" The Sharepoint entries are loaded into a gallery.

In the Item property of the gallery, I am using the following code:

If(
    !IsBlank(TextInput1_1.Text),
    Search(
        Filter(
            Switch(
                SelectionDirectory.Selected.Value, // Here
                "Dokumente2", Dokumente2, // Here
                "DL_Permission", DL_Permission // Here
            ),
            'Folder path' = varFolderPathSelectionFiles &&
            (
                IsBlank(FilterValue.Text) || 
                (varFilterItem_00_05 = "'File name with extension'" && Text(FilterValue.Text) in 'File name with extension') ||
                (varFilterItem_00_05 = "Modified" && Text(FilterValue.Text) in Text(Modified)) ||
                (varFilterItem_00_05 = "Modifiedby" && Text(FilterValue.Text) in 'Modified By'.DisplayName) ||
                (varFilterItem_00_05 = "Created" && Text(FilterValue.Text) in Text(Created)) ||
                (varFilterItem_00_05 = "Createdby" && Text(FilterValue.Text) in 'Created By'.DisplayName)
            )
        ),
        TextInput1_1.Text, 
        'File name with extension'
    ),
    varFilterSortDirection_00_05 = 1, 
    Sort(
        Filter(
            Switch(
                SelectionDirectory.Selected.Value, // Here
                "Dokumente2", Dokumente2, // Here
                "DL_Permission", DL_Permission // Here 
            ),
            'Folder path' = varFolderPathSelectionFiles &&

                (varFilterItem_00_05 = "Created" && Text(FilterValue.Text) in Text(Created)) ||
                (varFilterItem_00_05 = "Createdby" && Text(FilterValue.Text) in 'Created By'.DisplayName)
            )
        ),
        Switch(

        ),
        SortOrder.Descending

    Filter(
        Switch(
            SelectionDirectory.Selected.Value, // Here

            "DL_Permission", DL_Permission // Here
        ),
        'Folder path' = varFolderPathSelectionFiles &&
        (
            IsBlank(FilterValue.Text) || 
            (varFilterItem_00_05 = "'File name with extension'" && Text(FilterValue.Text) in 'File name with extension') ||
            (varFilterItem_00_05 = "Modified" && Text(FilterValue.Text) in Text(Modified)) ||
            (varFilterItem_00_05 = "Modifiedby" && Text(FilterValue.Text) in 'Modified By'.DisplayName) ||

            (varFilterItem_00_05 = "Createdby" && Text(FilterValue.Text) in 'Created By'.DisplayName)
        )
    )
)

Unfortunately, PowerApps reports an error with the Switch function in the context of the Filter function (Highlighted lines with "// Here") when 2 conditions "Dokumente2", Dokumente2, and "DL_Permission", DL_Permission are used.
With just one condition, the code works perfectly fine. After extensive research and despite asking in ChatGPT, I couldn't find the error.

What changes should I make in the code so that PowerApps accepts both conditions?

I would be grateful for any help!

The issue arises because the Switch function in Power Apps expects each condition (key-value pair) to be separated by a single comma.

Replace the Switch logic with an If function.

If(
!IsBlank(TextInput1_1.Text),
Search(
Filter(
If(
SelectionDirectory.Selected.Value = "Dokumente2", Dokumente2,
SelectionDirectory.Selected.Value = "DL_Permission", DL_Permission,
Blank() // Default case
),
'Folder path' = varFolderPathSelectionFiles &&

IsBlank(FilterValue.Text) ||

(varFilterItem_00_05 = "Modifiedby" && Text(FilterValue.Text) in 'Modified By'.DisplayName) ||
(varFilterItem_00_05 = "Created" && Text(FilterValue.Text) in Text(Created)) ||
(varFilterItem_00_05 = "Createdby" && Text(FilterValue.Text) in 'Created By'.DisplayName)

),
TextInput1_1.Text,
'File name with extension'

varFilterSortDirection_00_05 = 1,

)

try the above and let me know if it fixes your issue.
