Power BI Integration.Data issue

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

I am trying to embed a Power App into a Power BI report, and use toher visuals to filter the Power App display. Following the syntax in the PowerApps Custom visual guidance, I came up with the following 

 

Items property: LookUp('Long Term Deferrals',Title=First(PowerBIIntegration.Data).EVENT_NAME)

 

returns me the expected Title that matches the EVENT_NAME field in the Power BI PowerApp visual. However, if I add a ReductionFormula in an attempt to display a different field from that record, I get an error. 

 

LookUp('Long Term Deferrals',Title=First(PowerBIIntegration.Data).EVENT_NAME,Display_x0020_Name)

 

"The property expects Table values, but this rule produces incompatible Text values."

 

Any suggestions?

    Hi @Anonymous ,

    Do you type your LookUp formula within the Items property of the Gallery in your embedded app?

     

    Based on the issue that you mentioned, I think you have some misunderstanding on the LookUp function in PowerApps.

    In default (do not specify ReductionFormula argument), the LookUp function would return a record value that satisfies a formula. But if you specify the ReductionFormula argument within the LookUp function, the LookUp function would return a Single value.

    The Items property of the Gallery is required to provide a Table value or record value rather than a single value. If you want to display the Display Name column value wthin the Gallery, you could consider add a Label within the Gallery, then set the Text property to following:

    ThisItem.Display_x0020_Name

    On your side, you should set the Items property of the Gallery to following:

    LookUp('Long Term Deferrals', Title = First(PowerBIIntegration.Data).EVENT_NAME)

    within the Gallery, add a Label control, set the Text property to following:

    ThisItem.Display_x0020_Name /* <-- ThisItem.ColumnName */
