Make one collection from multiple lists

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 62

I have 4 collections that all have the same Title column...  one is a master list, the other 3 are I guess basically look up tables.

 

I would like to merge all 4 collections in one collection, with the 3 lookup tables being records in the master list based on the Title column.

 

I'm pretty sure this is a GroupBy function, but could be Join or Union as well?  I've never been good with Joins and Unions.

 

I've researched quite a bit over the last couple of weeks, and can't find anything that really gives me my answer; I'm pretty much at a total loss.

 

Thanks in advance 🙂

    I think I can do this without merging all the collections.  Thanks for the help.

    Master collection:  traineeSummaryList

    Columns Needed:  Title, Training Start Date, Training End Date, Location ID, Location Name, Training Status, 14 more columns that are individual department test scores

     

    collection #1 as record in master:  Weekly Trainee Details

    Columns:  Title, Start Date, End Date, Training Location, Location Name, Dept Training, Trainer, Weekly Status

     

    collection#2 as record in master:  Trainee Reviews

    Columns:  Title, Training Week End Date, Training Department, Training Location, Trainer, JCMS Test Score, Audit Results... 16 more columns to be part of the record

     

    collection #3 to be record in master:  Trainer Reviews

    Columns: Title, WE Training Date, Training Dept, Reviewer, Reviewer ID, Review Position... 22 more columns to be included

     

    ideally the master collection would have the following columns:

    Title, Training Start Date, Training End Date, Location ID, Location Name, Training Status, 14 more columns that are individual department test scores, record of Weekly Training Details, record of Trainee Reviews, record of Trainer Reviews

     

    Hope that helps and makes sense.

     

    Thanks

    There isn't a Join function in Power Apps, but you can accomplish what you after with Addcolumns and some Lookup calls. If you want to share collection and column names we can give you the code to make it work.
