Posted on by BOMBJosh

I am new to power apps, I have a combo box that the users pick what SharePoint list they want to view in the gallery. Since I am using Switch in the gallery to populate the chosen list I am not sure how to get the form to show all details of the selected item in the gallery. Any help would be amazing.

Hi,

On the OnSelect property of the Gallery store the selectedItem:

Set(SelectedListItem, ThisItem)

And then show the Selected item in Form.Item:

Because it is for work and is connecting to SharePoint lists with sensitive info I can't do screen shots. I was able to copy the switch code from the gallery into the data source in the form view and 3 of the fields out of the 30 are populating, so now to a new problem 🫠. Thank you for responding and trying to help
