How to make a collection from semicolon separated values

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 31

Hi there,

I'm quite new to Power Apps, and I was wondering, if there is a possibility to create a collection in Power Apps canvas app from values, which are separated by semicolon on a single row. The semicolon-separated values are now saved in the SharePoint list in a single column. I've tried to explain my goal in the following picture:

Does anyone know how this can be achieved in Power Apps?

Many thanks for your support.

    Hi @janklaska ,

    Try this - you will need to add your data table name and field names.

    ClearCollect(
     colAll,
     Ungroup(
     Ungroup(
     ForAll(
     YourDataHere As _Data,
     Table(
     {
     Field: _Data.YourField1,
     Code: 
     Split(
     _Data.YourField2,
     ";"
     )
     }
     )
     ),
     "Value"
     ),
     "Code"
     )
    )
