Load Specific List Record on Form Load using separate List as a lookup

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 15

So I have a list populating a form within a canvas power app, and looking to load a specific record based on a lookup from a separate list.

 

I have the primary table in this format

 

Title  |   Text Input 1   |   Text Input 1   |   Text Input x ....

Org1 |    [BLANK]       |    [BLANK]       |    [BLANK]       |  ...

Org2 |    [BLANK]       |    [BLANK]       |    [BLANK]       |  ...

Org3 |    [BLANK]       |    [BLANK]       |    [BLANK]       |  ...

 

I also have a second lookup table with a list of users matched to Org

 

Title  |   Email 

Org1 |    email1@email.com    

Org2 |    email2@email.com 

Org3 |    email3@email.com   

 

What I'm looking to do, is use the email of the user accessing the form, and lookup the org they match with from the second lookup table, and use that to pull the matching record from the primary table. The primary table is set to only have one entry per org.

 

How is best to do this, have tried using set and lookup for the item property of the form but can't seem to get it working.

 

Any advice would be appreciated.

    Hi @doctorscience ,

    The record should be

    With(
     {
     _Org:
     LookUp(
     Table2,
     Email = User().Email
     )
     },
     LookUp(
     Table1,
     Title = _Org.Title
     )
    )
