Get a User's Email From a TextInput Field's Filtered Results

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello! I'm trying to automate a portion of my PowerApp with populating a user's email based on a "View" TextInput field and the result of that:

 

TextInput Field Name is titled, "DM"

Applications_0-1673973709927.png

LookUp(PAL, If(ProjectNameDD.SelectedText.Value = ProjectName, true, false), DistMgr)

 

That's the lookup formula I'm using to get the name of the person related to a dropdown I have on another tab, but I'm having trouble with my next TextInput field to automatically populate the user's email. I have the Office365Users connector enabled, but it seems like PowerApps doesn't like using a control to search for user information. What am I doing wrong, anyone know how to achieve this?

 

Thank you!

    Hi @Applications ,

     

    You can try storing the control value as a variable and using that instead of directly referencing the control in the LookUp

    Would I do that in the LookUp InputField or the TextInputField I'm trying to search for the user?

    Hello @Applications try it on the TextInputField Default property.

     

    Hope this gives a clue.
