I created two dropdown fields in PowerApps and connected them to choices in my SharePoint List.

Now I want Dropdown2 to display a specific word based on the choice selected in dropdown1.

For Example: If(Dropdown1.selected.value="Cloud", dropdown2= "IT") AND if(dropdown1.selected.value="Storage", dropdown2="UNIX")

The aim is to auto-assign requests to various departments based on the choice selected in dropdown1.

Thank you for your continuous support.

Kind regards

Hi @NC12 ,

You can set dropdown-2 values in its Default property (DefaultSelectedItems property if combobox control)
//In Default property of Dropdown-2 If( Dropdown1.Selected.Value = "Cloud", {Value: "IT"}, If(Dropdown1.Selected.Value = "Storage", {Value: "UNIX"}, Parent.Default ) )

The syntax might change depending on your items property
But this will be structure that you will be following in 2nd dropdown control.

Hope this helps

It worked! Oh my wooord!!!

For anyone who might need to use this syntax, you need to add it to both default and defaultselectedItem properties.

God Bless ya!!!!!
