I have a SharePoint list being used as a data source and I see the datasource has [@Datasource], but I've been using [Datasource]
Does anyone know why this shows up differently? It lists both as options when I type the Datasource name. Just want to be sure I'm using the correct format or if one differs from the other.
@PowerAppsJunkie It indicates disambiguation in your formula. It really is not needed in reference to a datasource like that.
It works fine, but is not needed.
You can just specify Datasource (no square brackets around it).
I hope this is helpful for you.
Thanks Randy. Appreciate the info. Now I get to lookup and learn about disambiguation now lol. Never surprises me the amount to learn on the platform
@PowerAppsJunkie
Yeah, I would ignore most of the disambiguation stuff. That was key in earlier days, but now there is the As operator that makes it all not needed.
