Trying to Patch all items displayed in a gallery

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

"Table1" in Excel is data source.

BrowseGallery1 is the Gallery

I have added one checkbox to the top of the page.

If this is checked by the user, I am trying to patch all items the gallery. I would like to patch the column name 'Selected' to "Y".

I am trying this, I can see it doesn't look right, but I just can't figure out what I need to do to solve.

Patch(Table1,BrowseGallery1.AllItems,{Selected: "Y"})

Any help would be most appreciated, thank you.

Try:
ForAll( Gallery1.AllItems, Patch(TableName, LookUp(TableName, ColumnName="Y"), {Created_by: User().Email, Created_On: Today()}))

Hi,

I've had to amend it a bit to:

ForAll(Gallery1.AllItems,Patch(Table1,LookUp(Table1,Selected<>"Y"),{Selected: "Y"}))

I'm still testing it out it seems to work so far, but it's only patching the first 10 items for some reason - really not sure why.

How many rows do you have.
You can goto Settings-Advanced setting to increase the delegation limit to 2000.

Hi 🙂

I'm just testing it at the moment so there's only about 20 rows or so, but it's just the first 10 rows only that it's patching at the moment.

I've just double checked at that one's already set to 2000 =/

Hi @Anonymous ,

Do you want to patch the "Selected" column of all items in your Gallery when you check the Checkbox control?

I have made a test on my side, and don't have the issue that you mentioned. Please consider modify your formula as below:

ForAll( RenameColumns(Gallery1.AllItems, "PrimaryColumn", "PrimaryColumn1"), Patch( Table1, LookUp(Table1, PrimaryColumn = PrimaryColumn1), { Selected: "Y" } ) )

Note: I assume that your Gallery1 is connected to your Table1. The 'PrimaryColumn' represents the column in your Table1, which could identify one record uniquely.

Actually, I think it is not necessary to use ForAll function to achieve your needs. I think the UpdateIf function is enough to achieve your needs. Please set the OnCheck property of the Checkbox to following:

UpdateIf( Table1, true, { Selected: "Y" } )

Please take a try with above solution, check if the issue is solved.

Best regards,

Hi,

Not sure why yours is working and mine isn't 😞

If I'm thinking about this right, the column should be binary, either being not equal to Y ➡️ <>Y or "Y"

So if it's already "Y", it leaves it alone, and if it isn't "Y" it changes it to "Y" (if that makes sense!) 🙂

So, all 20 should meet one criteria or the other, either being left alone or changed - if I set all 20 records the "N", it only updates the first 20.

It should update all items in the gallery - there are some filters present on the gallery, however I've set all these to the widest parameters so all 20 records are displaying in the gallery at the mo.

Thanks again for you help 🙂

Hi,

That's a good shout on the UpdateIf - I haven't come across that one before - I'll try that while I'm working on this again a little later today.

Would you mind talking me through this step by step? I can kinda see what it's doing and I think that this might work for what I need, I'm just struggling to fully get my head around how it's working a bit:
ForAll( RenameColumns(Gallery1.AllItems, "PrimaryColumn", "PrimaryColumn1"), Patch( Table1, LookUp(Table1, PrimaryColumn = PrimaryColumn1), { Selected: "Y" } ) )
Thank you again so much! 🙂

Thanks for getting back to me.

Would you mind talking me through what this is doing this step by step? I can kinda see what it's doing and I think that this might work for what I need, this is just a new one on me and I'm just struggling to fully get my head around how it's working a bit:
ForAll( RenameColumns(Gallery1.AllItems, "PrimaryColumn", "PrimaryColumn1"), Patch( Table1, LookUp(Table1, PrimaryColumn = PrimaryColumn1), { Selected: "Y" } ) )
