Checkboxes & Text Input Data Card

Hi All,

I have this Data Card here that essentially pulls information from and external multiselect form, and for various reasons, I can't get the data from the external system to flow through to a multiselect column in the Dataverse, but that is another long story, so ignoring that, I need the Checkboxes to 'Check' based on what is in the Data Card.

I have tried:

If(DataCardValue10.text="Financial",true)

but nothing happens.

Can anyone help?

Hi @carrie-anne27

If(!IsBlank(Find("Financial", TxtInputKeyRisks.Text )), true)

Find function - Power Platform | Microsoft Learn

Try Find function to check if a specific word is included in a string in a text Input

This works great!!
However, it seems to pick up "Safety" because the word is in another sentence.

If the text next to the checkbox is the same as the value you want to compare, there is no need to manually input the category as text. All check boxes have the same fx in default property.

If(!IsBlank(Find(Self.Text, TxtInputKeyRisks.Text )) ||

!IsBlank(Find(Self.Text, TxtInputKeyRisks2.Text)) // add another item(3rd risks) if needed

, true)
