Formula with if and Office365 users connection does not work

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by ThomasVDS 102

Hi,

 

I have created a screen with a gallery containing the Office 365 users.

When I set the property 'Items': Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm: Trim(txtSearchEscenter_ActiveDir.Text)}) -> it works

When I set the property 'Items': Office365Users.MyProfile() -> it works

But I would like to combine both with a condition, so that users will only see their profile and the admin can see all, therefor I use the contextual variable 'MyProfile'.

If(MyProfile="Yes",Office365Users.MyProfile(),Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm: Trim(txtSearchEscenter_ActiveDir.Text)}))

I do get the error 'Invalid argument type (Table). Expecting a record value instead.

 

Can someone solve my issue?

Thanks!

Kr

    Hi @ThomasVDS 

     

     

    Use this

     

    If(MyProfile="Yes",Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm: Office365Users.MyProfile()}.UserPrincipalName),Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm: Trim(txtSearchEscenter_ActiveDir.Text)}))

    Thanks for your help!

    I used: 

    If(MyProfile="Yes",Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm: Office365Users.MyProfile().DisplayName}),Office365Users.SearchUser({searchTerm: Trim(txtSearchEscenter_ActiveDir.Text)}))
