PowerApps filter gallery not able to filter through SharePoint doc library after 2 levels of subfolders

Posted on by AkshaySolanki 128

Hi,

I want to filter a power apps canvas app gallery from a SharePoint document library, where I only want to display files from a folder located 4/5 levels deep (subfolders)

 based on my research, I found that I can use 'Folder Path' for this if I need to display files from a folder within a SP Doc library.

but turns out that is restricting the results to only 2 levels of subfolder within a SP Doc library

I am able to filter it to 2nd sub folder inside a doc library

but as soon as I go past that, it is not returning anything

Does anyone know what can I do the filter a doc library 4/5 subfolders deep and only display files from a specific folder?

 

TIA

Akshay
