Hi,

I have a list in parent sharepoint site and made lookup site column from that list. It is used in subsite's list. I get an error trying to add subsite's list to my app: The requested operation is invadid. Lookup list is in other webpage.

Hi Gintaras S,

In the same Site Collection, I create a lookup Site Column which get information from a list that is available in a parent site. Then I create an App from data with SharePoint using the custom list in the subsite, but when the App is set up, I get the same error message with you:

It seems that a lookup column on a subsite that looks up data that comes from a list of parent site is currently not supported. About this issue, you could submit an idea at PowerApps Ideas Forum, so it might be taken consideration for future releases:

Hi MabelMao,

lists are in diferent sites for security reason (all emploees can access list1 but some of them can access aditional data in list2). Is it possible to make such a functionality in other way, compatible with PowerrApps?

Hi Mable,
Any positive responsive for lookup column in the parent site?
Or do we need to go for any other alternative solutions/ work around?
