Opening a PDF on a new Tab by clicking an icon in a gallery

Posted on by sphinxley

Hi,

I'm having trouble opening my PDF from an onselect of an Icon. The PDF is linked to my sharepoint library. I currently am using the below in the OnSelect for the icon, but it doesn't open anything up. I'm assuming it isn't linking correctly, but not sure where it is wrong.

'Document #' is the column in Invoices that should match to Thisitem.Field_19, which is from another sharepoint data page called Detailed Line Items. The icon is within a gallery that is linked to Detailed Line Items data page. Any suggestions or help is appreciated!

ForAll(

Filter(

Invoices,

StartsWith(

'Document #',

ThisItem.Field_19

)

Launch(

ThisRecord.'Link to item',

{q: "Power Apps"},

LaunchTarget.New

)

Hi @sphinxley ,

I cannot see your data or model here, but you can only launch one document, so you need to return a Record, not a Table - the below is structure guidance only.

With( { wDoc: LookUp( Invoices, StartsWith( 'Document #', ThisItem.Field_19 ) ) }, Launch( wDoc.'Link to item', {q: "Power Apps"}, LaunchTarget.New ) )

Please click Accept as solution if my post helped you solve your issue. This will help others find it more readily. It also closes the item. If the content was useful in other ways, please consider giving it Thumbs Up.

Hi,

Sorry pretty new to PowerApps. Which part is referencing to the table that should be changed to a record?

Hi @sphinxley ,

You need LookUp, not Filter.

When I changed it to lookup, I'm still not able to open any PDFs.

Is there a way to check if it's actually looking anything up? Or if it's correctly looking it up?

Hi @sphinxley ,

Put this on a Label and see if you get the Document Name

LookUp( Invoices, StartsWith( 'Document #', ThisItem.Field_19 ) ).Name
