Automatically populate choice field based on another choice field - SharePoint List

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by vinimedina91 48

Hello,

 

I have one list in SharePoint that has, among other columns, two choice columns:

 

Column A

Option 1

Option 2

Option 3

 

Column B

Yes 

No

 

If the user selects Option 1 or Option 2 the Column B can be Yes or No, but if the user selects Option 3 the answer to Column B must always be Yes.

 

I'm using a PowerApps form for this SharePoint list, how can I automatically set the Column B to Yes if the user selects Option 3?

 

Thanks in advance for your time!

    You can try something like this in the DefaultSelectedItems property of Column B:

     

    If(ColumnA.Selected.Value = "Option 3", {Value:"Yes"}, Parent.Default)
