Hi PowerApps Community

 

I'm trying to build a power apps that populates a word document via Flow

 

I want to use dropdown in the powerapp, but when i do that I get an error in powerapps, I wanna send the selected value to flow so I can populate the word document, but it's expecting a text value instead of selected.text. 

 

if there a way to easily fix this?

    Should be Dropdown3.Selected.fieldname (replace "fieldname" with whatever value fromt the dropdown you want to select).

    so if it is Name, you would do 

    Dropdown3.Selected.Name
