Fluent Combobox control doesn't expose SearchText property

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 15

The modern, Fluent UI combo box control you can add in PowerApps component libraries doesn't seem to have the Search Text property exposed in the way that the original Combo Box does. It doesn't appear to be referenceable in any way:

For example. if I wanted to create a component that serves up a people picker field and used, as input for the component, the Office365Users.SearchUserV2 method, the combobox in the component set to allow searching isn't emitting the text that's typed into the component.

    Hello,

     

    Works ok for me try:

     

    Office365Users.SearchUserV2({searchTerm:ComboBox2.SearchText,top:999}).value

    Hi @chrispybites and community, 

     

    Did you find what's wrong with this? I'm experiencing the same problem. And now Power Apps is not allowing to activate the Classic Controls as before. 🤔

     

    A month ago I was able to activate the Classic Controls following the below steps, but once I activated it they disappeared one week later without the choice of activating them anymore:

    Best regards.
