Hi,
I am struggling with a situation in the canvas apps. The gallery shows the "title" with "ThisItem.demoEngagementID" which is the primary key of the table and shows a autonumber. However I want to show instead the Account name in a field known as "Accounts" in the same entity which lookup to the Accounts entity.
Can the operator "ThisItem" extends to extract text value from the lookup field "Accounts"? If not what is the correct way?
Appreciate your answer.
Regards
Stephen
Hi @Anonymous ,

Formula's schema:
ThisItem.lookup_field.account_name_field
Hope this can help.
Best Regards,
