Updating Language Column in Collection with Microsoft.TranslaterV2()

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by MD2024 261

Hello 

I need some help in regards of updating an English (EN) column to Portugese (pt) in a collection.

I have a dropdown: ["en","pt","de"]

I am using the following formular for trying to achieve it:

 

BUTTON-Property: onSelect

 

ForAll(
    ShowColumns(
        newCollection,
        "Number",
        "deText"
    ),
    Patch(
        newCollection,
        {
            deText: MicrosoftTranslatorV2.Translate(
                Dropdown1.Selected.Value,
                deText
            )
        }
    )
);
Navigate(Screen1);
 
The formular is ok and I not getting any errors, but if I push the bottom the following error is thrown:
"The datasource supplied to the function is invalid..."
 
Thanks in advance for any idea to achieve that 😉
 
Cheers
Michael

    Try adding "This Record" in Patch, like: 

    ForAll(
 ShowColumns(
 newCollection,
 "Number",
 "deText"
 ),
 Patch(
 newCollection, ThisRecord
 {
 deText: MicrosoftTranslatorV2.Translate(
 Dropdown1.Selected.Value,
 deText
 )
 }
 )
);
