Display Choice Field option in Data Table in PowerApps

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi,

I'm trying to display a choice field option in the Data Table under Insert. The Data Table displays Date, Text, Number but not choice field. Is there any workaround for this in PowerApps?

 

Thank you

    Hi rgb511,

     

    In my experience, the Data Table control is very limited - it can basically show you a data grid, but it doesn't really work well with (or support) many user interactions.

     

    Displaying a complex object column like Choice is one of these limitations.

    A Gallery is probably your best bet.  You can create a Gallery that looks like a Data Table by adding your own Column blocks manually (square icon with text) and lining your card elements up to them - tedious, but it works.

     

    Hope this helps 🙂

     

    Kind regards,

    You can use the below syntax

     

    Concat(ThisItem.Language,Value)

     

    where Thisitem.Language is the name of the column.

    I know this is an old post but I came by to say that that syntax does not work in a Data Table.

    The Correct Syntax is: ThisItem.<FieldName>.Value
