@Ashok2

Could it be because you have misspelled "Completed"? It looks like you have "Competed" instead.

Hi @Ashok2

Here are some things I would try.

State is a PowerApps keyword (it's a built in enumeration), so I'd recommend that you use a unique name like varState.

In terms of the order of your function, you would need to set the variable before calling Navigate. You would also need to pass varState as the 3rd argument in your call to Navigate.

I would give this a try to see if it works better for you.

ClearCollect(Collection1,Coll1);ClearCollect(Collection2,Coll2); If((Status.Value="Approved"&&'Status2.Value'="Competed"), UpdateContext({varState: true }) ); Navigate(CoverPage,ScreenTransition.Fade, {SelectedID:Gallery_1.Selected.'ID', varState: varState} );
