Default item in Gallery and Edit form - Getting your data

Hi Community,

I have an app with a Gallery connected to SharePoint list and next to it is an Edit Form that shows details to selected gallery item.

The form works when clicking through the items, but the problem is when the app starts.

After launching the application the gallery loads and show all items, but in my Edit Form there is a message: "Getting your data...".

I want to have the default mode of the form "View".

And I would like the form to show me the last submitted item in View mode when the app launches and afterwards I want it to show me the selected item.

Could you please advise?

Thanks a lot.

In the Item property of the form you need to say the item that you want to show.

If it is the last created you can do this:

First(Sort(YourDataSource; Created; Descending))

For example

Thanks @Nogueira1306 .
In Item property of my form I have following:
LookUp('source list',ID=SelectedItemID)

That is why I think the problem is that there is no item in the gallery selected by default when the app starts. Si I would like to have the first (last submitted item) selected on start. Is it possible?

Thank you.

Yes. Instead of that have this:

First(Sort(YourDataSource; Created; Descending))

You are sorting your data from recent to old and getting the first item.

Hi @Nogueira1306 ,
This has not solved my issue, because with this formula I am not able to review gallery items in my edit form by clicking on the arrow. The edit form always shows the last created item.

If you want to show a form on App On Start, you need to have that formula...

I think that you should have 2 different screens.

1 for App On Start that would only show the last created item and another one to show the gallery with the Gallery Selected item.
