Validation entities in PVA (Country and Continent)

Posted on by HaimOz

I have a topic including 2 questions:

1. What is your continent you're currently living in (using Continent entity).

2. What is the country you're currently living in (using Country entity).

I would like to add some sort of validation to make sure the country added does in fact belong to the continent entered so I won't have situations like 'Europe' and 'China'.

Before I go and develop a SQL SP that validate it, I was wondering if there's a quicker, built-in way / flow to achieve it?

Would appreciate any suggestion (and apologies for my many questions... I'm sure more will come 🙂).

Thanks,

update:
One way I found was to create new entities, each one different continent (e.g. 'EMEA', 'APAC', etc.) and include values all all countries within that continent (will be a long list) so the user can type its own. If it doesn't appear in the entity, it'll ask again.

Happy to hear other ideas.

Hi @HaimOz

Have you think about calling a Power Automate and pass the country and Continent. In Power Automate You should be able to check if the country belongs to the Continent and respond accordingly to BOT.
