Changing Drop-Down to Radio Button (PowerApp from SP List)

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 218

What's the best practice in an App to swap the dropdown with a radio button?  I've selected the dropdown within a card, deleted it, then added the radio button input.  I'm just friend mentally trying to figure out how to add the code back as a "choice" or whatever, pulling from my SharePoint list again, and having it update when I save it.

 

Thanks in advance for any insight!

    Place a radio buttons control on the screen.  To add the options from a SharePoint Choices type column you would put this code in the Items property

    Choices(your_datasource_name.your_column_name)

     

    Assuming these radio buttons are in an Edit Form you would put this code in the Update property of its Card.

    RadioButtons1.Selected.Value

    Maybe I should start another thread just let me know if I should but....
    I have same deal - using PowerApps to edit a SharePoint Online list form and wanted radio buttons and not the dropdown.

     

    I did as @mdevaney said and the radio buttons display my SharePoint list options as expected, they are selectable and save to the SharePoint list when a new item is added...but when you go to view that item or edit it, the radio buttons do not display the selected choice from the list - what am I missing?

     

    Thanks for any help!

    I would say 'yes' to starting a new thread.  You won't have the ability to select a solution otherwise and this thread is 8 months old without a response from the OP 🙂
