(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by finguerweg 8
Hello all,
 
I have created a form in PowerApps where I have a combobox to select values from a column named "Modos de Antecipação". It's working very good and the values I select I Patch to the sharepoint list
 
 
Now I have another form, and another combobox. I want to populate this second combobox using this multi-select column SELECTED VALUES ONLY. for example:
 
How can I achieve that? Please

    Try the following:
     
    If your ComboBox allows multiple selections, ensure the selected values are patched as an array. Use a formula like this:
    Patch(YourSharePointList, Defaults(YourSharePointList), {
        ModosDeAntecipacao: Concat(ComboBox.SelectedItems, Value, ", ")
    })
     
    ComboBox.DefaultSelectedItems = Filter(ComboBox.Items, Value = "Default Choice")
     
    let me know if you need more details, Thanks.

    @SaiRT14, the first formula works fine, I patched the values into array to a new column in sharepoint list named modosAntecipacao, as a string type.
    But How can I use the second formula in the second combobox?
     
    I have the values to use in sharepoint list column, not in the previous combobox.
    I needed something like 
     
    ComboBox.DefaultSelectedItems = ThisItem.modosAntecipacao
     
    But I get the error "Table Expected"
