Adding multiple comments to a field

Still struggling with the adding multiple notes to a customer.

I have two Sharepoint lists:

1. Contacts

2. Notes (has a LookUp field on the Organziation, which is Value stored in Contacts list)

I want a user to be able to see past comments based on the Organization (Organization is in the list Contacts.) The user can then add a new note in the Notes list based on the Organization. I've attached a scenario graphic that will provide more information.

Thanks so much! I'm new to PowerApps. 🙂

Re: Adding multiple comments to a field

Hi @ttaylor

Add 2 labels to the screen (for testing purpose) and set its text value to

label 1 - OrgDropdown.SelectedText.Value
label 2 - GalleryContacts.Selected.OrganizationID

Check the result returned and see it these values match any of the values in your OrganizationID column in Notes list

Re: Adding multiple comments to a field

The labels are returning result names from the dropdown box. I think I'm really confused. How does this tie to the Notes gallery?

Re: Adding multiple comments to a field

If I go into Sharelist, I can add a new note in the Notes list and choose the Organization (lookup value) and it adds the information just fine. How do I that same thing through a powerapp?

Re: Adding multiple comments to a field

This works to display the noted I added directly in the Sharepoint list (not through the app)

Filter(Notes,OrgDropDown_3.SelectedText.Value=Organization.Value)

And it returns the value I want. Now how can I add a new note to this?

Hi @ttaylor

Filter(Notes,OrgDropDown_3.SelectedText.Value=Organization.Value) - will show you all the related notes

To add a new Note - you would need to use a Form control or use Patch function
