How to use filter and look up functions on Sharepoint multi-select choice column type

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 70

I have a list of users with their roles on the app. The Role column is a multi-select choice column since some users have multiple roles. I wanted to get the logged in user's portal role/s, and I don't really know how to do this since I have not seen a resource about this one. I also can't access some sites (e.g. YT) since my company blocked them. Any help will be appreciated.

    Hi @raizanicolem ,

    Their Roles separated by commas would be (assuming you have the user's email in another field in the list)

    Concat(
     LookUp(
     SPList,
     YourEMailField = User().Email 
     ).Role,
     Value,
     ","
    )

    Thank you so much @WarrenBelz ! I decided to just change the column type to Text and use IsMatch() since I don't know the template of the final list, but your solution will be very handy in the nearby future.
