Help with building a checklist with Power Apps and SP lists

Posted on 10 Feb 2025 17:04:29 by 18
Hello, 
 
I am trying to create an engagement checklist from a SharePoint list (List1).  Below are the columns in my SharePoint list and in the header is a tab list of the different engagement phases. Each phase has a list of associated tasks. Engagement phases and tasks are stored in a separate SP list (List2).
 
My problem is that I need the task column to auto populate when a user selects the engagement phase, then the user will need to edit all of the other fields and submit everything to List 1. 
 
Any pointers would be really appreciated!

    Hello, if the header consists of buttons, you can add a variable in the OnSelect property to select the project phase.

    For example, when selecting the Engagement Kickoff phase:

    UpdateContext({varTempPhases: button_Engagement.Selected.Text})
    With this variable, in the Task column (if it's a ComboBox), use the following in the DefaultSelectedItems property:
    {Value: varTempPhases}
    If it's just a Dropdown, use the following in the Default property:
    varTempPhases
