Hi,
Got a dilemma. I have a combo box and OnChange it is set to run a flow. However I have also set to reset the combo box when user press the back button, which lead to the run the flow too.
Is there a way I can keep reset part. Ignore the flow run if the back button is click. Any idea
Can you share your combobox onChange formula and your back button formula?
Hi
This is the combo box
This is the Back Icon
So because your formula with the flow is in the OnChange property it's going to run every time that changes.
There is hope however. If you do not have a formula in the Default property that causes it to always have a value, try this in your OnChange property:
If(
!IsBlank(PeoplePicker), Set(EmployeeId, 'PowerApp->...............
)
This should cause the flow to only run if there is a value in the People Picker.
Don't think it will work because I set the reset just for scenario where user select a value and instead of submit press the back button, In those cases it will run the flow. If the combo box is blank, then I don't need to set the reset for it. I want user to come back to a new screen every time.
I can see a 'DefaultSelectedItems' property. Maybe I can set this to blank on this property. Any idea?
I will check this too. will let you know if it works
I did understand that.
Here is the issue, your Flow is triggered in the OnChange of your combobox. That means regardless of the value in the box each time it changes it will run the flow. Reset is a change, so it triggers the flow as well.
Having your formula in the OnChange check to see if there is a value, means that when it's reset to the default (blank) value, it won't run the flow.
I will test if your work around works too. thanks
After I post my comment I got your code on that after reset it will be blank value. That's why I replied that I gonna test your code.
Thanks a lot it works,
Can I get your input on this. It seems deselecting the item in the combo box result with running the flow.
Is it something I can correct?
