Scope access for a lookup in the gallery selection menu

Is there an experimental or retired feature that lets me put in the text property of a label on the gallery browse screen a look up to another list?

 

LookUp(Listname, 'Column= 'ThisItem.'Column.Value).'Column to Grab'

 

error: formula uses scope which is not presently supported for evaluation

    Hi @dperez13 ,

    Other than some quotes in the wrong place and assuming Column is a Text field in ListName and a Choice or Lookup field in the list in your Gallery, that should work.

    LookUp(
     Listname, 
     'Column' = 
     ThisItem.'Column'.Value
    ).'Column to Grab'

    its a lookup column from sharepoint that im trying to display and it points to another list (whose datasource is in the power app as well). now im getting delegation warning. the highlightd part of this formula might not work correctly with column xxxx.value on large data sets. but nothing is pulling through.

     

    edit: thanks, you solved it with the value. the other issue I had was just pointing at the wrong column im pretty sure.
