AddColumns -Nested LookUp

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi, 

 

I am working with a modeldriven app which has 3 entities: 

 

Table1Table2Table3
Name: TextfieldProject: TextfieldProduct: Textfield
ProjectOwner: TextfieldProductName: Lookup to Table3

Title: Textfield

ProjectName: Lookup to Table2 

 

 

In my dropdown, I want to see the Title (table3) linked to a certain ProjectOwner (table1). 

I added the following syntax to the items property of my dd, but it didn't work:

 

AddColumns(
Filter(
Table1;
ProjectOwner = "Person x"
);
"NewColumn";
LookUp(Table2; Project = ProjectName).ProductName.Title
)

I assume there is a problem with "Project = ProjectName" since ProjectName is also a lookup? 

 

Thanks in advance!

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    Try to add an alias. In the example below, I will name my filter as ProjectOwners.

     

    AddColumns(
     Filter(
     Table1;
     ProjectOwner = "Person x"
     ) As ProjectOwners; 
     "NewColumn"; 
     LookUp(Table2; Project = ProjectOwners.ProjectName).ProductName.Title
    )
