[Question] PowerApps Components - How to Refresh Data Sources and Do Custom Action in Buttons (OnSelect)

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hello community,

 

I have been using the components all over my Power Apps, but there are two things that am unable to do:

  1. How can I add a Refresh Button inside a component, that will refresh the desired Data Source (Tables and Records inputs are not properly refreshing my Data Source)
  2. How can I make a button inside a component that I can customize its action from outside the component, like, I created a component that will prompt the user Yes/No buttons, I want want for example to Patch a Data Source, and I want No to hide the prompt, but in another app, I want it to Patch something else. Can I customize what is the OnSelect of a button? Let me rephrase the question, how can I do actions based on the component outputs, for example, if they choose this button, how can I Patch this particular data source on the app?

    Never matter, I found the solution.

     

    You just need to put an Output that is Boolean, and make the button inside the Component create "true" for that Output, and put OnReset to make it "false" for that Output.

     

    Now on the app side, create a Toggle, and make the default that Output value, and put all of your code inside the OnCheck, at the end of it, put Reset(Component).
