Hello,

I find it easier in these circumstances to create your own lookup. To do this I would set the field as a text field in the primary list. Add the Users list as a data source. When you add the text box to the screen you can change its type to be a dropdown. Then for the items of the dropdown you can write a formula that filters the User list based on if the Lead Generator is selected. The value in the new dropdown will get saved against the text field on submit.

Regards

Ben

Hi @MuzaffarMahmood ,

Did you mean that in the dropdown control for the Lookup field "Lead Generator", you want to filter the options inside this dropdown with the a yes/no column type from source list(User)? Is "Lead Generator" in Users list the yes/no column?

If so, then change the Items property of the dropdown control to:

Filter(User,'Lead Generator'=false)

In this formula, I assume that you want to filter with "No". You can change it to the one you use.

Make sure that DisplayFields and SearchFields properties of this dropdown control is selected to the source field that you set in SharePoint lookup column setting.

And at last change the formula of the Update property of this data card to:

{'@odata.type':"#Microsoft.Azure.Connectors.SharePoint.SPListExpandedReference", Id:DataCardValue14.Selected.ID, Value:DataCardValue14.Selected.Name}

DataCardValue14 is the dropdown control's name. In this formula I assume that you are using Name field from User list as the source field of the lookup column.

Regards,

Mona
