I need to connect data from a table to a single field in a form, so that as the user types, the available options show below. I think it has to be done with JQuery but I'm not sure how. Does anyone know how it could be done?
Hi @elll you need to link your tables via relationships in Dataverse.
What you are looking for is represented by a Lookup column type, in the Portals this can be represented as a lookup control (which contains search capabilities via modal popup) or via dropdown, which is simpler but more user friendly (this behaviour is changed via Form Metadata)
Please let me know if you need more info on this configuration.
how do you get a Form to actually view the values stored in the lookup column? I have a lookup column in a form. The child form is populated but on the parent form when you click or search it none of the data values are presented for the user to select?
