Cascading Drop Down Values - Issue with Selecting Multiple in ComboBox and showing in a textbox

(2) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 378
Having an issue with my cascading drop down using 2 sharepoint lists.
 
It's not the building out part I am 5 levels deep and it's working correctly with drop choices being available as each layer is select.
 
My issue is if I select multiple from a combox box it will only show 1 value in the next box, in reality there are 2.  I also just want this data to appear in a text box so I can then post to sharepoint.
 
Example.
 
If Gender is selected as my final dropdown, my text box will read Male, Female.
 
This isnt my use case but an example.
 
What I am trying to do my final layer has a Notes (Static information save in SharePoint).  If the choice ahead (We will call it: Types of Notes) has 2 selected items, then this should pull up both those Notes and post them in a text box so I can save to SharePoint.

    Figured it out this code works:   Using a TextInput changing to multi line if needed
     
    Concat(
              ForAll(
                  ComboBox_Choice1.SelectedItems,
                  LookUp('Your SharePoint List', Category = Value).Value
              ),
              Text(Value), ", "
           )
     
    Change out 'Category' to your Sharepoint ColumnName
    The last '.Value' change to the Column you need from the lookup
