Hi @SharePointDev12

Check out @Shanescows 's video on Comboboxes at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjs0ZsnJZXo It should give you all the information you need to work with them in PowerApps.

Hi@SharePointDev12,

Considering that it gets errors when you set DefautlSelectedItems property, do you want to set it properly to the Combo Box?

Based on your description, the column in your SP corresponding to the Combo Box is a Text type. I have a test on my side under this premise, please take a try as below:

Set the Update property of the datacard as:

ComboBox1.Selected.ColumnName

Set the Items property of the ComboBox1 as:

'DataSource'.ColumnName

Set the DefaultSelectedItems property of the ComboBox1 as:

{ColumnName:ThisItem.ColumnName}

It will be appreciated if you can post some specific error screenshots.

Best Regards,
Qi Qiao

Bonjour,

Je pense avoir le même problème. Ça fait quelques jours que passe de forum en forum et la réponse y est je pense. Malheureusement je suis novice avec Powerapps.

Je fait essayer d'expliquer le problème. Pour tenter de le résoudre

J'ai créé une application 3 écrans via un fichier excel. Quand j'enregistre des données dans Combobox via le formulaire Editform j'obtiens bien les données enregistrées dans la BrowseGallery. Pas de problème

J'ouvre une des données enregistrées dans BrowseGalllery qui m'envoie vers Detailscreen ou je retrouve mes données. Celui du Combobox aussi. Il existe une icône de modification sur Detailscreen. Je clique dessus et me renvoie vers Editform ou je trouve l'ensemble de mes données sauf celle du Combobox.

J'ai vérifié l'ensemble des items au niveau de default elle sont toutes notées ( Parent.default )
Sauf Combobox. J'ai essayé des choses dans DefaultSelctedeItems sans trouver la solution.

Je vais mettre des photos pour essayer de me faire comprendre

Merci d'avance pour l'aide apportée

Hi,

I had this same problem and your solution worked really well. One problem though, the formula you suggested doesn't sort out distinct values in the items property. It causes duplicate values to appear. I tried adding the distinct() with the formula you gave but this caused an error because distinct requires two arguments that are type record, not table. Do you have a solution for this?
