Text input with numbers only

Posted on by Community Power Pla...

Hello,

I would like to make my text input box only accept 6 digit numbers only. Additionally, I would also like to make it so that whichever 6 digit number that is entered is looked up in reference to the SharePoint list that is connected to my app. I am not sure how to go about that. After this number is looked up, a pop-up should occur letting the user know that the number they entered was found in the records.

Thank you

Hi! I assume you are speaking about a canvas app. You could set the txt input properties as follows:
Format: Number
MaxLength: 6
Hint Text: "Input 6-digit number"
OnChange - due to lack of infos, just a basic logic 🙂 :
If(
Value(Self.Text) = *yourDataSourceColumn*.Value,
Notify("Number already used",NotificationType.Information),
Patch()
)

Hi @Anonymous ,

I've made a test for your reference:

Set the text input control's Default property to:

"000000"

Set it's OnChange property to:

If( !IsMatch(Self.Text,"\d{6}"), Reset(Self);Notify("input box only accept 6 digit numbers only"), If( !IsBlank(DataSource,ColumnName=Self.Text)), Notify("number was found"), Notify("number not found") ) )

Best Regards,

Bof
