Adding a label on a form control that reads another sharepoint list

Posted on by powerdevkris 144 Season of Giving Solutions 2025

Hi,

 

I currently have a form control that connects to my main SharePoint list. I have another list that contains historical updates of a field in the main list.

 

I wanted to add a label inside the form control that looks at my historical update list and shows the latest update that was done based on the Title field of the main list. would this be possible? I wanted to show who last entered a data on that field by reading my historical list.

    sure @powerdevkris ,

     

    You can use lookup function to get the desired information from a list by passing filter value. You have to assign the value to the label control text property.

     

    LookUp(
    'Historical Updates',
    Title = ThisItem.Title
    ).ColumnToDisplay
