Combo Box filter for SharePoint multi-select lookup column

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

I have two SharePoint lists...

 

TeamMembers (contains employees and leave plan(s) they are eligible for)

-Title(TeamMemberNumber)

-LeavePlans (multi-select lookup into LeavePlans list below)

 

LeavePlans (contains all valid leave plans - Vacation, Personal, Other)

-Title

 

Want to filter Combo Box in PowerApps to allow user to select one of the leave plans they are eligible for.

 

Choices('Team Members'.LeavePlans) in Items property shows ALL leave plans.  What would the FILTER statement look like to select leave plan(s) for a specific team member (entered in text box on same screen) ?

 

Thanks in advance.

    Was able to solve this myself...

     

    1. Captured the team member's leave plans in a collection (from another collection).  Collection contained "Id" and "Value" columns.

     

    ClearCollect(colTeamMembers, 

    Filter('Team Members' ,'Team Member Number' = txtNewTeamMemberNumber.Text));
    ClearCollect(colTeamMemberLeavePlans, First(colTeamMembers).LeavePlans);

     

    2. Set combo box Items to the value...

     

    colTeamMemberLeavePlans.Value
