PowerApps header for Gallery control from SharePoint List

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hy alll,

I have created a Table like structure using gallery control and displaying SharePoint List Data.

Now my query is I want to add the SharePoint list column name as the Gallery control header. I want header value should be dynamic. So that when we will change the Column name in our SharePoint list. Then it should reflect on the PowerApps Gallery control header. Is there any solution for that.

Best Regards,

Padmini

I accomplished this for my requirement by doing the following which I thought was quite ingenious considering it worked for what I was trying to do:

ClearCollect( MyLocalCollection, HeaderText1, HeaderText2 etc),
Collect ( MyLocalCollection, SharePointList )

The syntax probably isn’t the exactly correct as I’m reply on my phone and not actually checking the exact syntax I used, but that was the broader logic I used and it worked fine for me. I also managed to then make the header values in first row in the gallery bold, but I can’t offhand record exactly how.

Happy to share more specifics should you need further help on this!

Hi,

If you want datasource columns as well, then easiest way is to have a data table instead of gallery control.

Hope this helps,

Hmmm, actually Pranav is likely more on the better track as I didn’t fully read the specific requirements.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Based on the needs that you mentioned, I afraid that the Gallery control could not achieve your needs directly. As an alternative solution, I think the Data Table control could achieve your needs.

If you want to add a Button control within the Data Table control, I afraid that there is no way to achieve your needs in PowerApps currently. As an alter native solution, you could add another column within your Data Table to act as a Button click option.

I have made a test on my side, please take a try with the following workaround:

Add a Data Table control within your app, set the Items property to following:

AddColumns('YourSPList', "Action Operation", "Button Click")

then enable the "Action Operation" column in your Data Table control.

Select the "Action Operation" column in your Data Table control, then set the IsHyperlink property to true, then set the OnSelect property to following formula:

"Type your Button Clickable formula here"

Please take a try with above solution, then check if the issue is solved.
