Posted on by 70

Hello,

 

id like to ask for help. Im using combobox in PowerApps and as Items for combobox im using collection, which i created in OnStart this way:
ClearCollect(O365GRPCOLL2, Filter(Office365Users.SearchUser(),Department = "SWD Praha"));

 

Each item in this collection have multiple properties like city, country, displayname, etc. My combobox by default display property city.

Thank you in advance.

 

Regards,
Jakub

    1. Select the DataCardValueX of your Data Card from the Tree View

         a. Expand the Data Card by clicking the chevron

         b. Select the Data Card

    If you don't see another option, adjust the Data Card property or properties until you get another option

     Default

     DataField

     Update

    (but you really shouldn't have to)

     

    So like this:

    I am not sure why it didn't work in the existing app. 

     

    On the existing app, try removing the field, and then re-adding it again.

    If it is simpler, just use the new app.

     

    Glad it helped @Krentor
