Hi Experts,

Why combox box is not showing any data. I have a given a proper source to the combobox.

Same combobox works outside the container.

Do i need to add something extra or some trick to get it working.

Hi @AshishJaiswal ,

This is because your control is in the component and you need to create a custom input property.

I did a test for you.
1\ This is my datasourse sharepoint list 'LIST111'. 'Test' is a 'Single line of text' column.

2\ Create a component and create its Input property

Set the Input property 'Test1' to:
Table({Title:"a",Test:"a"})

3\ Insert a combo box control and set its Items property to:
Component1.Test1

4\ Add this component to screen and set the input property 'Test1' to:

5\ The result is as follows:

@v-xiaochen-msft ,

Thank you for replying to my post.

So far, I am able to follow what you mentioned above

However the my sharepoint has a column name 'customer' which i want in the combobox.

I created a new component - Good
Created a customer property 'Test1' - Good
Set its Input Property to Table({Title:"a",Test:"a"}) - this is where I am confused because I used Table({Title:"a",Customer:"a"})
Inserted a Combobox made its item property to Component1.Test1
But my Combobox only shows output as 'a' - nothing from sharepoint

Hi @AshishJaiswal ,

There is no error in your operation, but you only did half of the operation.
You have completed the step to create a component, but you have not placed the component on the screen.
In the component, you can’t get the data (you only get the "a") because you don’t pass the parameters to the component from the screen.

Please check the steps in my picture
