Hello I am having trouble with a log in screen dilemma and that is:
a. I am trying to make a app that users enter in a user name and a password and power apps checks my data source to verify if the user name and pass matches and then sends the user to the employee hub screen.
b. I have created some code to allow for the login part to verify with a excel file ( i use excel when mocking things up) but now I have a new issue.
c. I have tried creating a persistent user token based off of the user name input object but every time I navigate to the employee hub after logging in The user token is blank meaning there is no defining identifier to say which user logged in and jobs in a gallery list are filtered by employees name.
d. Please bear in mind that I created a table with the user name, password and full names. Then I use a global variable to use the user name text input to use as a lookup criteria to pull the user full name from the table. But for some reason the lookup turns up blank everytime. I feel this is because using the text input as a source is a bad deal.
My humble request is for someone to help me find a way to make a permanent user token created from the log in screen of the app. Basically I want to log in with the user name and pass and during that login a token or variable is made that I can use on another screen to lookup for that users full name on another table. This is paramount as I need the name to filter. Thanks in advance.
