Required fields in Power Apps Form not giving error message

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

I have a power apps form that has required fields and is marked as required in SharePoint. I have ErrorMessage data cards but the form is allowing me to move to the next screen without entering data. The field does not appear in red nor does it provide an error message prompting the user.

    If you are trying to submit the form and it is not giving any error message. Make sure Required property is set to true in the powerapps datacard.

    If you are just trying to next screen and do not want to submit the data. You use Valid method to check if all required fields are filled in the form. If you also want it display it in the. Try something like this

    If(
     Form1.Valid,
     //if all fields are filled move to next screen
     Navigate(
     Screen1,
     ScreenTransition.None
     ),
     //this will help to display error messages in the form
     SubmitForm(Form1)
    )

    All required DataCards are correct and oddly enough this did work at one point (getting the Parent.Error message). I have no idea why it stopped working.

    I have multiple forms that are all reliant on one another. For instance, Screen 1 General Information Form - Next button should go to next form which is Contact Information Form. Since I am not getting the error messages for the required fields, I would like to put data on the Next button that requires the fields to be completed before moving onto the next form.

    All fields/DataCards are required EXCEPT Alternate Location/Hot Sites Address (if any)
