Multiple criteria dynamic dropdown filter selection

Hi,

 

I'm new to PowerApps and i'm stuck on building an app. I simplified this example to understand what i need to do.

Let's say i have 3 items, and 3 properties. The quality of the property differs per item, this is rated by a letter (A,B,C.. etc), it looks like this:

 

 Property1Property2Property3
Item1AAC
Item2ABD
Item3BCD

 

I want the user of my app to fill in the quality of each of the 3 properties, with this i want the app to find a suitable item.

 

Lets say on dropdown1 (property1) i fill in quality A, then dropdown2 (property2) should only give me a choice containing A and B.

If i choose quality A in dropdown2 (property2) aswell, then i want dropdown3 (property3) to only let me select quality C.

Now every property has a quality and item1 should be the result of my property choices.

 

Thusfar i used 'Distinct(Filter())' to for example get the avaible qualities of property2 based on my quailty choice in property1, however i do not know how to do this for multiple properties at once. For example the the quality based on my choice in property1 and my choice in property2.

 

I'm sure i can use a 'and' statement in my filter to show results based on multiple criteria, however when i get alot of properties this will be diffecult to maintain, there must be a more dynamic way of setting this up

 

In reality it looks like this it is alot more properties, qualities and possibly resulting items:

    Hi @Kryptic ,

     

    According to your description, I assume you want to get the option of the third dropdown control.

     

    You could try the following code:

    Distinct(Filter(your data table,Property1=dropdown1.selected.value, Property2=dropdown2.selected.value),Property3)

     

    If you want to get the options of other dropdown controls, the principle is similar.

    At my knowledge, this is a commonly used method.

    If you have many dropdown controls, the amount of code will increase. This is inevitable.
