    HI @was,

     

    Could you please share a bit more about the formula within the Items property of the Drop down control?

    Could you please show a bit more about the storedprocedure that you mentioned?

    Further, do you want to save the returning data into the Department Drop down control?

     

    More details about starting a flow from an app, please check the following article:

    More details about returning an Array from flow to PowerApps, please check the following blog:

    Assuming your "departments" have matches in your flow, then on submission of your "department" field, call your storedProc with the value of the field...pushing it into a collection

     

    ClearCollect(queryResults,getSqlquery.Run(myDepartment.Text))

     

    and then for your dropdown, make the "items" attribute  equal the Collection and field name, eg queryResults.myDisplayedField
