Dropdown Not Saving

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 72

Hi All, I am not able to save a dropdown in my SharePoint form. I customize my form in PowerApps. I had to delete my Initials of QA control (in list settings) as I needed to change the control from single text to choice type. The control would not convert for some reason. I created the control again as choice. I then went into PowerApps to add the datacard and customize. For some reason, the dropdown will not save. I compared to my other dropdowns in PowerApps created the same way as controls in list settings. This new one looks the same but will not save. Can you all help? I appreciate your help!

    Hi @KD_7 ,

     

    May I ask what Items of Dropdown?

    Please try this in the Items of DropDown(DataCardValue20):

    Choices([@DataSource].ColumnName)

     

    Hope this will help you,

    Best Regards,
    Tina

    @v-hanytian-msft  Forgot to tag you.  See reply.  Any other ideas? I’m kind of at a loss.  Never had this problem before.

    @v-hanytian-msft another observation to share- when I try to create a new form, fill out completely and press Save it just sits.  I do not get an error but it will not save.  When I edit an existing entry, update the drop-down and press save, the drop down deselects, and I get an error that the field is required. I also noticed all previous entries created have flags in SP showing missing metadata.  So I have to select that drop down for all previous entries now I guess?  I appreciate your help!
