Posted on by

Hi All,

 

In my front end form i want to show user 3 values

Best

Good

Average

 

Users sees the above values in the form dropdown. When the user selects one of the values in the dropdown and submits the form, I want to send a number to the backend (SharePoint list)

 

So if user selects

Best i need to send back 1 to the sharepoint list

Good send 2 to the sharepoint list

Average send 3 to the sharepoint list

 

Thanks in advance for your help

    Set the Items property of the dropdown to an array of records that contains both the text and numeric values.  Then when you Patch to the SharePoint list use Dropdown1.Selected.Number.

    Table({Name: "Best", Number: 1},{Name: "Good", Number: 2},{Name: "Average", Number: 3})
