Power Apps Text Label to display SharePoint List Choice

(1) Share

Report

Posted on by Edri Naguit

I am using a SharePoint list as my datasource and want my multiple Choice fields displayed in the Power Apps Text field

For example I have a SharePoint List with the Title "Software Development Services" and the Choices of: ERP Client Interface, Portal Services, Mobile Service, CRM, Payroll, Dashboard, Report

I have edit form in Power Apps. And the one displaying in my text field is "[{"Value":"Mobile Service"}]". I'm not sure why I am getting the values as a string array.

Hi CU03100202-0

Do you simply want the possible values displayed - normally you would do that in a Drop-down or Combo Box. This will do it, however I am wondering if I am reading your requirements correctly.
Concat( Choices([@'Form Test1'].'Software Development Services), Value, "," )

Good Day Sir @WarrenBelz ! I wanted to display it as a simple string like "Mobile Service"

I did the Concat and it has error.

do you want to show the selected value which is stored in SharePoint ?
currently what you are trying to do is to display into a text field all the options from a choice field without any relation to the item itself
can you pls specify
thanks

Hi CU03100202-0,

That code is valid if used as the Default of the Text control and 'Software Development Services' is a Choice column, so obviously that is not the case in your exercise.

So do you want the actual values chosen displayed in a Text control - I must admit I am a bit confused as to exactly what you want here (you have asked for want my multiple Choice fields displayed in the Power Apps Text field). If you are choosing values from a Combo Box, then the Text control Default would be
Concat( ComboBoxName.SelectedItems, Value, "," )
