hm not sure if its working. I have an app where i send images from power apps to a web server using power automate. If i close app and open then send images. it works good. If i dont close the app but sends images, then it sends the same images and the power automate times out. Dont seems like when i hit the send button that it resends the collection it haves. I do have a reset on each image etc. I am using a pick image action
this its what happens when i hit send in power apps ClearCollect(colBase64;DropColumns(AddColumns(imageCollection;"Base64";Mid(JSON(Image;JSONFormat.IncludeBinaryData);25;Len(JSON(Image;JSONFormat.IncludeBinaryData))-25));"Image"));;Set(JsonCol;JSON(colBase64;JSONFormat.IncludeBinaryData));; IDM.Run(reg;SONR;FORSIKRING;Jobbtype;JsonCol);; Reset(Jobbtype);; Reset(BarcodeScanner1);; Reset(AddREGBTN);; Reset(AddDmgIndi_btn);; Reset(CLOSEUP_DMG_BTN);; Reset(ADAS_BTN);; Reset(GLASSID_BTN);; (ADAS_IMG.Image);; Clear(imageCollection);; Clear(colBase64);; Set(JsonCol; Blank());; Reset(DMG_SCHEME_BTN);; Navigate(Home)
@Anonymous No idea. I only know that's how you clear a global variable.
The new question you are asking seems to be similar to your other post called "Clear, Cache, Collection". I did not respond to that one because I do not know the answer.
@mdevaney
Thanks, your response helped me with a question I was just about to post!
It work just fine for me, Thanks @Anonymous
Where is the best place to put this call? I have tried in in different OnVisibles, in the App part, in the SharePointIntegrations and it doesn't seem to work. The Set(varID, Blank()) part is what i am having troubles with.
@NiteWalker
One place (and probably where most would use it) would be on the OnSelect property of a button
Thanks for the info.
I figured out my issue... or rather what not to do. I was trying to use a variable to load the items for the datatable. This was not working very well, so I just put in the Lookup function directly in the items and it is working great now.
