Binding values from control (Radio Button, Drop-down, etc) to a database value

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

I have a simple Azure database table with 2 columns (simplified example):

  CustomerName

  Member

 

I can connect to the table and display the column values without issue. Let's say I have an Update screen with a Data card showing the column values as:

     Jane Doe           Y              <<values for CustomerName and Member

 

I'd like to insert a RadioButton control on the data card (have done this and changed its values to "Y" and "N") AND have the value of the DataCardValue to update based on the RadioButton selection. For example, if I change the RadioButton to "N", I'd like to see the displayed value change to "N". I've read the documentation article on - Adding a list-box, drop-down, radio but that didn't involve updating a data field that will potentially be written back. 

 

This may seem like PowerApps-101 but the documentation doesn't fully explain things.

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

thanks

    1. Convert the data card to a "View Text" card

    2. Unlock the data card

    3. Add a Radio control with Items = ["Y", "N"] inside the Data card

    4. Change the Text property of the label inside the Data card to Radio1.Selected.Value i.e. display the selected value of the radio

     

    5. Set "Default" property of Radio to Parent.Default

     

    Hope this helps

     

    Thanks
