DataCardValue to display other column names then the defaulted value from sharepoint

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 66

So I had originally worked with Dataverse as my connector to powerapps before switching to Sharepoint. One of the features I had used with Dataverse was within the default feature of my RichTextEditor tool, I was able to create an email format that pulled data from my Job Record (JR) table. The JR table contained two lookup columns one for the Candidate table and other for the Client table. So the email would be able to pull the data from the Candidate and client datacardvalue to get the appropriate information to input within the email being established.

 

 

The main feature I liked about how dataverse worked was that from the candidate/client datacardvalue I was also able to pull other column information from both tables for e.g. (As shown in the image. Those underlined blue are from the client lookup datacardvalue) I was able to pull the client address information from that one client lookup datacardvalue. So I'm wondering is this possible for sharepoint? I've only come to terms with the basics of how to use Sharepoint but I can't seem to be able to find a way to reciprocate the same method I used for dataverse on my sharepoint connected powerapps.

    Hi @ArT1 ,

    Assuming DataCardValue132 is a Combo Box and the Items contain a Table with these values, there is no reason you cannot do this.

    But every time I type DataCardValue132.Selected, I am only given the option to choose Id or Value (which is the Company Name) but I am hoping to attain the company address instead. Which is possible on dataverse but not when I use SharePoint. I tried the "Add a column to show each of these additional fields:" in SharePoint but the additional columns only show when I use the ThisItem function

    @ArT1 ,

    What are the Items of DataCardValue132 - sounds to me that it will be Choices(ListName.LookupColumnName) - these column types do not work the same as in Dataverse. You need to get the actual table from the other list

    Yes that is correct about the Items of DataCardValue132. I think I understand what you mean about getting the table from the other list from a video I watched of Shane Young. I'll link the video here just incase: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43ekj5MlNJU. Thank you for your help.
