I'm trying to develop a prototype in my organization using PowerApps. And my scenario is I have a text box where an user enters a string and if that string has any acronyms then that I should be replaced with its meaning. Acronyms and meaning will be readily stored in the Microsoft lists. I tried several ways but couldn't, not sure whether this is feasible in PowerApps.

Re: Powerapps with Microsoft lists

Thank you for your response Qi. I already have a Microsoft list with all possible acronyms and its meaning, say for example; FYI:For Your Information, PFA: Please find attachments. In my PowerApps, I have text input box where user can enter a string. Say if they enter "Hi, This is Rajesh. This is FYI. Please go through and PFA." For this string, I want the output as "Hi, This is Rajesh. This is For your information. Please go through and Please find attachments."

Hi @Rajesh_Devaraj,

Do you want to r etrieve the data from the list based on the TextInput text string?

Could you please share a bit more about our scenario?

If you want to replace the meaning once the input matches to the acronyms in the data source, just set the OnChange property of the TextInput as below:

Set(varMean,LookUp(List,TextInput10.Text in Field).Field)

Then set the default property of the TextInput as the variable:

varMean
