Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

Hello,

I'm a beginner. Last Friday I started creating my first powerApp.

It is easy inventory, that contain two Sharepoint list (Item inventory and activity logs). I started with default template from tutorial (BrowseScreen,EditScreen and DetailScreen).
On DetailScreen I display item detail from item inventory (Default settings) and below this detail I display gallery, that contains this item's activity logs. On Header this gallery I have icon for adding new activity log, that redirect to LogEditScreen. LogEditScreen contain Header and Edit form.

Here is begin of my problem. I would like to automaticly set item name instead of default generated dropdown menu, that allows selection of all saved item names. I searched everywhere and tried everything, but I can't resolve it.

My Idea is, that I transmit item name from DetailScreen to LogEditScreen (Ideally as hidden label) and user fills rest of form. So I make sure the item is selected correctly and user can't add activity log for other item.

Sharepoint Lists definition
item inventory: item name (string),Handed over from (date),Borrower(String),...
activity logs: activity name (string), note (string), item name (lookup item name from item inventory)

I will be extremely grateful for any advice or reference to a tutorial that would help me.
