Displaying the Results of a Multiselect Field from a SharePoint List

Posted on 19 May 2023 22:23:49 by 29

I am trying to set up a Browse Gallery, which is tied to a SharePoint List.  The list contains a glossary of codes and their definitions.  In the list, there is one column that is set up as a multi-select/combo box where you select which teams are eligible to use the code.  This column is called, "Relevant Functions."

 

Because I need to be able to filter the list based on people selecting the team (i.e., function) that they are in, I am trying to include the field in the Browse Gallery.  However, when I put in the code "ThisItem.'Relevant Functions' it gives me an error, stating that the "formula uses scope, which is not presently supported for evaluation.  (Data type: Table)".  I also get a note that says, "Expected Text value."

 

I have tried using:

  • "ThisItem.'Relevant Functions'.Selected.Text
  • "ThisItem.'Relevant Functions'.Text
  • "ThisItem.'Relevant Functions'.SelectedText
  • "ThisItem.'Relevant Functions'.Results
  • "ThisItem.'Relevant Functions'.Value
  • ThisItem.Text('Relevant Funtions')
  • ThisItem.Text('Relevant Funtions'())

Ideally, I would like this to be hidden so that people don't see it in the gallery listing, but it is available to search on.

I'm running out of ideas to try and solve this problem.  If you have any ideas on how to solve, I would love to hear them!

    Hi @Aylanna ,

    This will get you a Text value you can put in a Label

    Concat(
     ThisItem.'Relevant Functions',
     Value,
     ", "
    )
