Add multiple Choice Columns to Collection

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi all,

 

I am attempting to create a collection using 3 Choice columns from a Sharepoint List.

 

I have tried using the below however, this does not expand the data and seems to leave each entry in each column all within individual tables

 

ClearCollect ( colList , ShowColumns ( SPLsource , "Item1" , "Item2" , "Item3" ) ) 

 

Can anyone help with the next step please?

    Hi

    Try this

    ClearCollect(colList, AddColumns(SPLsource, "Choice1Value", Choice1.Value, "Choice2Value", Choice2.Value, "Choice3Value", Choice3.Value))

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the fast reply.

    For some reason it seems to be returning the entire Sharepoint List not just the 3 required columns. Is there an easy way to remove the others?

    Hi @nemo1 

    Here's a formula to return only the 3 required columns.

    ClearCollect(
     colList,
     ShowColumns(
     AddColumns(
     SPLsource,
     "Choice1Value",
     Choice1.Value,
     "Choice2Value",
     Choice2.Value,
     "Choice3Value",
     Choice3.Value
     ),
     "Choice1Value",
     "Choice2Value",
     "Choice3Value"
     )
    )

    Works great, thanks

     

    Where would I put a filter statement in the formula? "Choice1Value" contains blanks which I would like to screen out
