Sorting Lookup Columns

Hello everyone hope you're all are doing well

I'm building a PowerApp screen with a gallery that displays records from a Sharepoint list. The gallery has multiple filtering conditions as well as a search functionality. My problem is that I don't know how to sort the columns alphabetically. I want to sort the Title as well as the country column alphabetically (the country is a lookup column).

I've tried using Sort and SortByColumns but i think i'm using them incorrectly.

Here's my formula:

Search(
If(
IsBlank(ComboBox1.Selected), TeachersList,
Filter(TeachersList,country in ComboBox1.SelectedItems.Title &&

Schools.Value in ComboBox4.SelectedItems.Name
)),
TextInput.Text, "Title")

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi @fdlsklfsdkk ,

You cannot sort on Lookup columns so you need something like this - note I have guessed your filter logic here

SortByColumns( Search( Filter( AddColumns( TeachersList, "MyCountry" Country.Value ), If( IsBlank(ComboBox1.Selected), true, country in ComboBox1.SelectedItems.Title && Schools.Value in ComboBox4.SelectedItems.Name ) ), TextInput.Text, "Title" ), "Title" "MyCountry", Ascending/Decending //pick whichever you need )
