Multi Inputs in Power Apps

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello,

Is there any possible way to use the text box in the power apps, like the email box in outlook mail. That is when I type a group of text and then separate with specific delimiter, ";", it is marked as one item. (The text input box allows multiple items)

For enabling it, which component should I use and how should I write the formula. Plus, is there a possible way for this?

 

Thanks for the attention. I have attached the screenshot which shows the way I would like to get.

    Hi @Thinzar ,

     

    Please try the following formula:

    Concat(Split(Trim(TextInputCanvas1.Value),";"&Char(10)).Value, Value,";")

    Hi @Thinzar ,

     

    You can use the formula anywhere you want to USE the result. The explanation to the formula is

    1. remove all the spaces from the input texts using Trim frunction.

    2. Split the inputs by semicolon and Char(10) into an array:

    ->

    3. concatenate the array into string using semicolon as the separator:

    [123, 456, 789] -> 123;456;789

     

    Best regards,
