Further Filters Selections in a Combo Box who's source is PowerBIIntegration.Data

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by PaulBI 91

I'm trying to filter what can be selected in a combo box whose source is a PowerBIIntegration.Data.  I've been successful in bring in the Power BI Column of Machine Code and break it down to just Distinct values.  I am unsuccessful in doing that and applying a filter from the Powerapps Page (Department_1) to the Power BI column (Dept) to filter the distinct values for a Combo Box source.

Original Successful Items: Distinct(PowerBIIntegration.Data,'Machine Code')

Version I'm working on Items: Filter(Distinct(PowerBIIntegration.Data,'Machine Code'),Department_1.Text in PowerBIIntegration.Data.Dept)

I appreciate any help anyone can give.

    Hi @PaulBI 

     

    Distinct always returns a collection with only 1 column called Result

     

    Distinct(PowerBIIntegration.Data,'Machine Code')

    will return a collection with column Result that will contain all your distinct machine codes

     

    You will need to update your query accrodingly

    I think all you need to do is filter the data first then use the distinct.

     

    Example: 

    Distinct(Filter(PowerBIIntegration.Data, Department_1.Text in Data.Dept),'Machine Code')
