Dataverse Table with Yes/No to Power App

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 1,265

I want to create a Power App from a Dataverse table.  There are (17) Yes/No fields in the table (that display as Toggles in Dataverse); but, when I build the Power App they are coming across as Combo Boxes.  Do I have to go into each dataCard and modify or am I doing something wrong?

    Dataverse can assign/use different control types based on the data type of the column it is linked to. It can use Dropdowns, Comboboxes, Toggles, and Checkboxes I believe. 

     

    In Power Apps

    First I would go to the data section and and check that the data source and the field that is bound to the control is in fact your yes/no column from your DV table.

    Also can make sure that the items property is referencing the yes/no column as well. Something like:

    YourDVTableName.YourYesNoColName

    At this point try saving and previewing the app again to see if it uses toggles instead. 

     

    In Dataverse

    Make sure your data type is set to two options for yes and no

    Check the format settings for that column and see what control it says it will use

    Check the default control

     

    Make sure to refresh/reopen your app/form after these changes to see if the change actually worked or not.

    @mmollet Thanks for the response.  Following is what I am seeing.

    Headlights (Items) - Choices('Headlights (VehInspDVS)')

    To verify, I did enter "Test" in the text field associated with the Headlights field shown.  This verified I'm looking at the correct record.
