I have a sharepoint list that I am trying to build cascading drop downs for. There are three text columns and each should cascade accordingly. I did get the first two working, but now I can't get the last one to work. It will show blank text and change when I select category and shows no text in the dropdown. Please see below.
Area:
Can you try like this:
Description: Distinct(Filter('Electrical Cascade List', Area = AreaDrpDwn.Selected.Value && Category = CatDrpdown_1.Selected.Value), Description)
Please click Accept as solution if my post helped you solve your issue. This will help others find it more readily. It also closes the item. If the content was useful in other ways, please consider giving it Thumbs Up.

No text is showing but it is giving multiple options in the window.
@EMA03356, What value do you see in formula bar for the function, for example
you are just near to the solution, you need to properly identify the field name.
It shows the values that I need and just isn't displaying them in the dropdown.

Then it is just mapping issue with the dropdown control. What do you see in the Value property of your dropdown?
If you have "Value" as shown above, sometimes it might be cache issue, requesting you to save and close the application and reopen it again and give it a try. Let's see how it goes.
This is what is showing, I did close and open the app with no luck.
Could you try to use ComboBox in place of dropdown to check if it displays the values?
That worked! Thank you so much!
