Hi, I have form app in powerapp. Some of the datacard fields are set to required fields and show error when hit on submit button when if any of the field is empty. Later I added an extra datacard (Lets say X) and set its property to mandatory. So while testing, when the X datacard was left empty, the form is still submitting. But all the datacards if left empty showing error. Can someone hlp me in resolving it.

Thanks

This the patch fn i used on submit button

If(
IsEmpty(
Errors(
'TMAS',
Patch(
'TMAS',
Defaults('TMAS'),
{
Title: NameField.Text,
'Instructor Local': LocalField.Text,
'Instructor E-mail': Email.Text,
'Department Chair Name':DepChairName.Text,
'Employee ID Number':EmployeeIDNumberField.Text,
'Course Name': Concat(CourseNameComboBox.SelectedItems,Simple),
'Employee Role':EmployeeRoleComboBox.Selected,
'Other Info': OtherInfoField.Text,
'Employee Role(Other)': DataCardValue1.Text (This the datacard that I have added later)
}
)
)
),
Notify(
"Crs Enroll Request.",
NotificationType.Success
);Office365Outlook.SendEmail("abc@gmail.com","Crs Enroll Request: "&NameField.Text&" - "& EmployeeRoleComboBox.Selected.Value
,HtmlText1.HtmlText,{Cc: Email.Text& " ,Bcc:"xyz@langara.ca", IsHtml:true});Office365Outlook.SendEmail("abcd@gmail.com;xcvbh@gmail.com","e-mail subscription","subscribe address="&Email.Text);Navigate(SubmitScreen,ScreenTransition.Fade);,

Hi @kmanakonda ,

According to your Formula, we deduce that 'Employee Role(Other)' in the Data Source is not Required.

If you want to make DataCardValue Required, you can set Required to True of DataCard.

Or you can try this Formula.
If( !IsBlank( DataCardValue1.Text ), Patch( 'TMAS', Defaults('TMAS'), { Title: NameField.Text, 'Instructor Local': LocalField.Text, 'Instructor E-mail': Email.Text, 'Department Chair Name':DepChairName.Text, 'Employee ID Number':EmployeeIDNumberField.Text, 'Course Name': Concat(CourseNameComboBox.SelectedItems,Simple), 'Employee Role':EmployeeRoleComboBox.Selected, 'Other Info': OtherInfoField.Text, 'Employee Role(Other)': DataCardValue1.Text (This the datacard that I have added later) } )&& Notify( "Crs Enroll Request.", NotificationType.Success ), Office365Outlook.SendEmail("abc@gmail.com","Crs Enroll Request: "&NameField.Text&" - "& EmployeeRoleComboBox.Selected.Value,HtmlText1.HtmlText,{Cc: Email.Text& " ,Bcc:"xyz@langara.ca", IsHtml:true}) && Office365Outlook.SendEmail("abcd@gmail.com;xcvbh@gmail.com","e-mail subscription","subscribe address="&Email.Text) && Navigate(SubmitScreen,ScreenTransition.Fade)&& Notify( "Please complete all the required fields.", NotificationType.Error ) )
Hope this will help you,
Best Regards,
Tina

Hi thanks for the response,

my question is Email.Text is also a mandatory field just like DataCardValue1.Text, why when Email.Text is throwing up an error where as DataCardValue1.Text is not even when required field is set tot true? Let say if use you the patch you recommended, but what If I add another DataCardValue2.text in future? How do we solve this
