If statement with type control and text

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Good evening,

I have a canvas app and I've added a data table with 4 items that pull from a sharepoint list. Item 2 is a choice of names, which defines as a control in power apps. I've created a variable; varUserEmail that contains the email of the person accessing the app at that time. Set(varUserEmail, User().Email);

I'm trying to make the data table visible only if the varUserEmail matches values in item 2 but it won't work because it's comparing control to text. Any thoughts?

If('Lead SA'.Selected = varUserEmail, true, false) - this doesn't work. 'Lead SA' is a control and varUserEmail is text

Hi @jw20402 ,

You need the field name selected in ‘Lead SA’ and also do not need If/true/false

'Lead SA'.Selected.FieldName = varUserEmail
