Lookup Dynamics 365 Fields

(2) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi all,

 

I have a requirement to create a PowerApp to update/create records on a custom entity in my Dynamics365 system. This works as expected for text values, however I am only getting the GUID for lookup values. I have searched for the problem and see it is an issue but can't seem to find a workaround for my specific example. I would like to see/add user lookup values to a existing/new record.

 

Any help is much appreciated!

    Hi coreyp,

     

    As you know, currently no support for Lookups and Optionsets in Powerapps when connected to Dynamics 365. I cannot think of any workaround for your specific situation either. 

     

    You could post this idea in the PowerApps Ideas forum, so it might be considered for future releases.
