Hi Team - as subject states: I want to create a login in screen with a password ONLY to access the other screens.

If the password is incorrect I want to have a text popup that says 'Try Again' or 'Contact Us'.

However I am a little bit lost and need some input please.

My Onselect for my login button:

If('password'.text = "1234",

Reset('password');

UpdateContext({PopUp:false]);

Navigate(ScreenHome)

If('password'.text = "summeriscool",

Reset('password');

UpdateContext({PopUp:false]);

Navigate(ScreenHome)

UpdateContext

({

Message Text: Incorrect. Try again.",

BadPasswordCount: Sum(Value(BadPasswordCount),1),

{);

Reset(password input)

);

If(BadPasswordCount = 3)

UpdateContext({PopUp:true})

Hi @SunshineK,

Could you please share a bit more about the scenario, where do you set the variable MessageText and BadPasswordCount?

Please share more details about your configuration

From now on, I could help you modify a little bit as below:

If( 'password'.Text = "1234", Reset('password'); UpdateContext({PopUp: false}); Navigate(ScreenHome), If( 'password'.Text = "summeriscool", Reset('password'); UpdateContext({PopUp: false}); Navigate(ScreenHome), UpdateContext( { MessageText: " Incorrect. Try again.", BadPasswordCount: Sum(Value(BadPasswordCount.Text),1) } ); Reset(BadPasswordCount), If( Value(BadPasswordCount.Text) = 3, UpdateContext({PopUp: true}) ) ) )

Check if this could help you.

Regards,

Qi

Whoops - I probably shouldn't have two passwords.

So basically how I want it to work is when you open the app it asks the user to fill in a password, and then have a login button.

If the password is correct - it will take you to the home screen.
If the password is incorrect - it has a pop up on the login screen that says 'Incorrect Password' for 5 seconds.
If the password has been entered incorrect 3 times - it has a pop up on the login screen that says 'contact us' or 'try again'.

Hi Team - I have tried a different way ... only one error this time which is good.

password input format is 'Text'.

When I click the login button it does nothing.

Any suggestions?

Hi @SunshineK,

Could you please tell me that if the data type of the password in the Table1 in Text type?

Also, tell me that "&" operation means what, do you want to combine the strings with "&"? I want to explain to you that the "&" is an operator used to combine with two strings, but the formula in your scenario turns that there are two different conditions rather than two strings, so please replace the "&" with "&&" which means the "And".

Hope it could help.

Regards,

Qi

Hi @SunshineK,

If you have used the correct operator but have type of number, you should format the Username.Text as Value(Username.Text).

Only need to format the text string using the Value() function.
