I have a SharePoint database called 'CC', which contains a column that is formatted as a dropdown menu. In my application, I have a form in which the same previous column ('CC') is inserted as a dropdown menu. However, instead of loading the existing values from the column ('DD'), I need its data source to be a column from another SharePoint list that is of type text. So, when I select the existing options, data from the second data source should appear

    Hi @12FelipeDuarte  ,

     

    In this case you can create a lookup column in your CC list and select the text column from the other SP List while creating the list.

     

    After adding the lookup column in your SP List , you have to refresh you data source in PowerApps and add that lookup column in your Form.

     

    Hope this helps!
