Named formula to start timer control - Power Apps for Teams

Posted on by Clasho

Hi all,

I have found what seems to be a bug in Power Apps for Teams.

When I use a named formula as the value of the start property for a timer control the timer does not start when the named formula value changed to true. If instead I use a context variable as the value of the start property the timer start and stops correctly based on the value of the context variable.

Is anyone able to replicate this? My Power Apps for Teams version reports as Version 0.7

Hi @Clasho
Try The Formula Like This
// Assuming your named formula is called StartTimerFormula // You can set a context variable based on this named formula UpdateContext({ StartTimer: StartTimerFormula }) // Then use the context variable for the Timer's Start property TimerControl.Start = StartTimer
Please accept this solution if it resolves the issue. ✅
Best regards,

Hi Muhammad,

It worked. I inserted a Text Box control and set its value property to the Named Formula and then used the OnChange event to call the UpdateContext formula.
