Just wondering before I try to figure out how, if this is even possible with power pages

I have a text field in a list with a number of company names that are separated by a ;

I would like the logged in use to see only those items on the list where their company name appears in that text field?

I know it's possible in Power Apps but I still don't fully understand the login process for Power Pages and whether I can pull in other info about an authenticated user such as their company name and then map that against a list? but the added complication being the name is in one text field with other names just with the ; separation. However they will match exactly.

TIA

Hi @vffdd ,

if it was me, i would create either an m-n relation or a table with lookups to account and contact. Then i would write a small plugin, which fills this relation or table with the assigning contactid - accountid (may be its possible via lo/nocode - i am not in that story). (the plugin should of course care for changes 🙂 )

Once this relation is filled, you can use it as tablepermission in portals. For example see all accounts which are ralated to the logged in contact via this relation. I personally prefer using an ~~entity~~table as this could then be used as a parentpermission for many other purposes (like opportunities or orders or whatever somehow refers to accounts)

Hope this helps,

Christian
