I am having issue with the following code.

The Collection (List) ManagerEmailAddress column is a single line text.

The Main_Screen_User_Email_Fld.Text context is Office365UserProfile(User().Email).Mail

If(RequestCollection.ManagerEmailAddress=Main_Screen_User_Email_Fld.Text,...

The equal in the above formula is kicking back and error - 'Incompatible types for comparison.
These types can't be compared: Table, Text'.

Hi @Phineas,

Should you want to check whether the email appears in the email column of that collection, you will need the in operator. 'Equals' will expect a single text value.

If( Main_Screen_User_Email_Fld.Text in RequestCollection.ManagerEmailAddress, ...

If this solves your question, would you be so kind as to accept it as a solution & give it a thumbs up.

Thanks!
