Hello community, I am working with a portal in power apps.

In a form for sending a contact, the values are being associated in the corresponding columns "Client" and "Contact". However, by putting these fields in "Read Only" it is not inserting them in the dataverse:

This is the Javascript that was used:

Apparently in a publication they told me that it couldn't be done, but I don't doubt that it can. https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Power-Apps-Portals/Language-setting-for-user/m-p/1500750

Can someone help me here?

If the fields are marked readonly on the Dataverse form then Dataverse is not expecting it to be updated and so it doesn't.
You will need to make the fields editable on the Dataverse form and then set them readonly in JavaScript/JQuery on the Portal Form. Different field types require different elements to be set readonly see this blog from Oliver https://oliverrodrigues365.com/2020/08/16/power-apps-portals-javascript-tip-02-set-attributes-read-only/

Hi @Fubar , apparently you can solve it using the following JS:
$(document).ready(function(){ var idContact = "{{user.contactid}}"; var nameContact = "{{user.fullname}}"; var idCompany = "{{user.parentcustomerid.id}}"; var nameCompany = "{{user.parentcustomerid.name}}"; /* Client */ $("#customerid_name").attr("value", nameCompany); $("#customerid").attr("value", idCompany); $("#customerid_entityname").attr("value", "account" ); $("#customerid_name").attr("readonly", true); $("#customerid_name").attr("aria-disabled", true); $("#customerid_name").attr("disabled", "disabled"); $("#customerid_name").siblings("div.input-group-btn").find("button").prop("disabled", true); $("#customerid_name").siblings("div.input-group-btn").hide(); /* Contact */ $("#primarycontactid_name").attr("value", nameContact); $("#primarycontactid").attr("value", idContact); $("#primarycontactid_entityname").attr("value", "contact" ); $("#primarycontactid_name").attr("readonly", true); $("#primarycontactid_name").attr("aria-disabled", true); $("#primarycontactid_name").attr("disabled", "disabled"); $("#primarycontactid_name").siblings("div.input-group-btn").find("button").prop("disabled", true); $("#primarycontactid_name").siblings("div.input-group-btn").hide(); });

Thanks.
