Capture look up combobox selected items and pass to power automate from power app

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 76

I have a power app form where I allow users to enter some information before they submit to create an item in a new list.  One of those fields is a combobox that is sourced from a look up.  This field is a multi-select.  This field is not required, but when data is selected in the combobox, I want to pass that information to Power Automate that will gather information from multiple lists and create a new item in a new list.  I know I need to create a variable to capture this information but PowerApps is not liking anything I have done so far.  I have searched and have not found anything where this is being done.  Any help would be appreciated.

    I figured it out myself by concatenating the values before I called power automate.  I am sending the variable in a string and then parsing it later when it is needed.
