    Hi @Allabasha ,

    You have not stated what field you are displaying it in - you just need to put that in the below.

    {Value : Datacardvalue.Selected.FieldNameHere}

    @Allabasha 

    What type of field is 'Agent Role' and is that a single or multi-select combo box and what is your data source ? Can you also please select Edit on the right side and provide a screenshot of this

    @Allabasha ,

    You said you had removed the Choices (as per original post) - now you have them back, so

    {Value : OValueDAgent.Selected.Value}

    is what you need, but I need this panel when you have the original code posted if you want to use your filter. I simply need to know the field you are displaying and confirmation that this is a single-select control.

    By default, it picked up the choice formula when i added the form - Choices ('Default Agent Role (My ICCC Onboardings)')

     

    I have removed the Choices and added a Filter('ICCC All Domains',Domain=Vardomtypeselected) as I wanted to filter the Values based on my Domain Selection....

    As Soon as I change the Formula to filter from Choices, the Update Property is not accetping the formula below and from there I am stuck as I am not sure how to patch this without the update property...

    {Value : OValueDAgent.Selected.Value}

    @Allabasha ,

    We are going in circles a bit here - this is honestly very easy to solve if I have the information requested. If the Items of the Combo Box are

    Filter(
     'ICCC All Domains',
     Domain = Vardomtypeselected
    )

    it puts a Table in the Combo Box of all the records matching that Filter. You then need to display one of the fields in that Record and this will be shown in the Panel I asked for

     

    WarrenBelz_0-1669015413558.png

    You then use the 'Primary text' value (is will also be ????? in OValueDAgent.Selected.?????)  - I also need to know the type of field selected here.

    As you are writing back to a Choice field, (the Update of the Data Card will be 

    {Value: OValueDAgent.Selected.?????}

    @WarrenBelz  Sorry for the Confusion...

     

    After using the Filter function its obsoutly working fine where I have selected " Agent Role" to populate in the Primary Text... even I strongly feel it is easy but some how it is not allowing the update property.. See the screenshot below..

     

    Primary Text Value is - Agent Role.... ( Using Filter I am pulling the Agent roles based on the domain selection.. Reference is Tables...
