Combobox default values from SQL

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 42

Hi all,

 

within my powerapp I have a gallery with a multi select combobox.

 

While having a form for new items this works perfectly: the values are being added into a column of my SQL table divided by a ",".

 

However I'm still struggling to display the values again within an edit form.

 

How can I display my values from the specific column (which are divided by a comma) as default values within my combobox?

 

KR,

Sebastian

    Hi @sbossler_079 ,

    You need the Split function, but you need the current record (it will only do text, not a table) as it is tuning your text into a table.

    Split(
     ThisItem.YourSQLColumnName,
     ","
    )
