Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

Hello, I have created a parent and child entity. When I go from the parent to child form in my app, I pass the ID of the parent to the child. In ViewForm mode, I am able to see all the child forms associated with the parent form. However, the form usually shows the child forms of the previous parent form selected, rather than the current one. If I refresh the child entity when I enter the page, the issue goes away and I see the correct child forms associated with the parent form. Is this a bug?

Hi tgiard,

Are there two separate screens in your App and are you passing the ID in the context part off the navigate function?

Next time please add the functions you are using in a code block. Like so:

Navigate(Screen2, Cover, {ID:MyID})

And the formula you use for your gallery, in this case the source and item formula's. The way you now have posted your question is to lean and basically not to answer. like:

Source:

dbo.MyTable

Item

Filter(dbo.MyTable, condition)

This makes it easier to answer your question by the community

Now, you're problem could be an issue with refreshing the datasource do a refresh on the OnVisible property off the screen can maybe fix your problem. Besides that I would suggest that you reset your local variable at the OnHidden Property, like so:

UpdateContext({YourVariable:Blank()})

In this way you automaticly reset your gallery to be empty and so blank when goïng to the screen. Basically I reset all my variables, collections and other things I initialize before to or OnVisible off the form

Another think to check is maybe if your formula at the item parameter off your gallery has a blue spot, which means not delegated to the server. In this case your problem could also come from the items limit for your gallery (default 500, but can be set to max 2.000 in de appsettings menu).

Hope this helps.
