How do I remove blanks in a PowerApp combobox card used in a SharePoint Form?

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

I am attempting to customize the New List Item form for a SharePoint list. There is a column that performs a lookup on another column in a different list. That column has some blank values in it.

 

My list currently shows a ton of blanks at the top of the drop-down, which is very frustrating. Is there a way to remove the blanks? The current formula used for the drop-down is as follows:

 

Choices('Work Tracker'.'User Name')

    In this case, you can use the following formula:

       Filter(Choices('Work Tracker'.'User Name'), !IsBlank(Value))

    This will return a table of items that do not have blanks.

     

    I hope this is helpful for you.

    Thanks @RandyHayes for the tip.

    I had the same issue...but my sharepoint column was a single line of text.

     

    I used this instead 

    Filter(Sort(Distinct(Synthese_Titres_update;CIS);Result);!IsBlank(Result))
