Comparison of control type with text type

Posted on by ledur17

I'm having trouble comparing control with text type.

What I need is the following: in a powerapps form I need when "Contract" = "Contract.Text(Input)", to return the values of the "resources" that were selected.

The combobox is just the resources that will be selected, I use the following codes:

onchange = UpdateContext({ContratoSelecionado: CardContrato_1.Text})

items = Filter(ValoresContratos;Contrato = ContratoSelecionado)

@ledur17 - what is the data type for the "Contrato" field? (single line text, number, single-select choice, single-select lookup etc)

@ledur17 - as I understand it, you want to filter a ComboBox control based on the value entered in a Text Input control.

If you must use a local Context Variable, then you should be initialising the Variable on the OnChange property of the Text Input control, not on the ComboBox control. For example:

UpdateContext({ContratoSelecionado: Self.Text})

In addition, remember to check the properties pane for the ComboBox and ensure the "Primary text" dropdown is returning the column you need:

On a related note, I do not think this is a good idea because the Filter will only return an exact match. Consider using the Search or StartsWith function instead:

Filter( ValoresContratos; Len(ContratoSelecionado) = 0 || StartsWith( 'The field you want to display'; ContratoSelecionado ) )
