Date/Time not showing in Appended Column

Hi

I'm storing my data in SharePoint. One of the columns I'm using is multi-lines of text and I enabled appending changes to existing text.

Now when the data is stored, it shows in SP List properly (see screenshot 1)

When I try to view the field in pwoerApps, it doesn't show the time stamp and who did the change (see Screen Shot 2)

How can I show all info similar to what shows in SP List column?

Hi @Anonymous
Power apps can get most recent comment and will not show as SP. but you create that functionality without append backend
for example if you're using a form you can add below code on update the card you will like to track

If(!IsBlank(txtNotes), ThisItem.note & User().FullName & " - " & Now() & " - " & txtNotes.Text & "<br>" & "<br>")

Hi @Anonymous,

Do you want to display changes within Power Apps edit form?

Could you please share a bit more about your scenario?

Actually, this feature of Append changes to Existing Text for Multiple lines of text column is not supported within Power Apps.

If you want this feature to be added, please vote for this idea:

Append comments Field - Page 7 - Power Platform Community (microsoft.com)

As an alternative solution, you could use the Launch function to open the version history (Comments) in a browser window. The following thread provides 2 workarounds on how to make it, please check as below:
