Can i refresh a variable as a data source?

Posted on by 116

Hi, i've got 8 buttons on my first page, one for each work area.. Each area has it's own SharePoint list

 

On select they for example Set(AreaSPList, 'SP list > Area1');   Then Area2, Area 3 etc...

 

I'm then using the AreaSPList as my data source in various forms and so on. 

 

Where i'm tripping up is updating the actual  SP list > Area1'. It updates fine if i set item via a gallery LookUp(AreaSPList,ID=SelectedItemID) but the form isn't showing the new data.. mousing over the AreaSPList shows the last modified is old data. How can i refresh AreaSPList?

    Hi @The_blue :

    Could you please tell me:

    • Are you talking about an Canvas App?If so,posting you question to the Power Apps Forum is a much more better choice.(This is Power Automate Forum)
    • What is the meaning of  "isn't showing the new data"?Could you please show me some screenshots?
    • Could you please show me the detailed settings of your Form?

    If the form does not reset after submitting the form, then I suggest you reset the form. ResetForm()

    Best Regards,

    Bof
