Posted on by YuVi

I am trying a create a power app and fairly new to this. I tried to create a button that will collect data when selected.

This is the formula I am using. not sure why it is not working.

ClearCollect(colGridData,'AllocationDatasource')

I tried getting colGridData in a gallery to see if data comes there. But nope. Data source is sharepoint list that has 8 columns.

Button is in Homescreen and OnSelect property. Appreciate your help!

the ClearCollect command only creates the collection. You can view the first five rows of a valid Collection by going to View > Collections. Once the collection is created, you can display it in a gallery by selecting the Collection as the source under the gallery's 'Items' attribute.

I am not able to see my data in View-> collections. Here is the screenshot.

I also see many columns here whereas I only had 8 columns in my sharepoint list.

I am not sure what I am doing wrong here.

It didn't work. I created a button and used the above formula. I can see the items now in View ->collections. But not when I click the button.

Any idea why this could happen?

@YuVi ,

If you can see the items in View > Collections and the Items of your gallery is colGridDataSource, then it is simply a matter of putting labels in your gallery with the Text ThisItem.YourfFieldName (for your 8 field names) and you will see the data.
