Pretty much as the title suggests I'd like to add related entities/columns on occasion for a dataset control but I'd like this to be an outer join. Is this possible?

Hi @skoofy5 ,
Have you tried an expression with linkType "outer"?
var expression = { name: ..., from: ..., to: ..., linkType:"outer" };
The "linkType" is documented, but the possible values not yet: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/component-framework/reference/ilinkentityexposedexpression#linktype?WT.mc_id=BA-MVP-5004107
Hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Diana
I tried this a while ago, but acted like an inner join at the time. So there's missing documentation here again? I've submitted a comment on that page. Could someone from MS give me some insight on this?
