Hi all,

Reasonably new to PowerApps and looking to build a form for users to input address and POC details that will move into our data warehouse. Was wondering what sort of validation PowerApps has on address details and email formats. For example, we ask users to input:

Address Line 1: Mandatory

Address Line 2: Optional

Address Line 3: Optional

Address Line 4: Mandatory

Postcocde: Must be in the same format with no spaces, e.g. SW1A2AA not SW1 2AA

Name: Can contain multiple, but names must be seperated by a comma, e.g. John Smith, Jane Smith

Email: Can contain multiple but would need to be able to ensures its a correct email format. Where multiple provided seperared with a comma. They key is ensuring the email address is a correct format.

Telephone:

Any advice?

James

PowerApps and Address Input Validation

This should be very easy...

For address line 1 and 4.. you can keep the "Required" property to be true...

For postcode, you can use the onchange property with something similar to below... this will show message if incorrect format is used..TextInputPostcode.Text will be your postal code field.. similarly adapt the code for the Name...

If(
Len(Substitute(TextInputPostcode.Text, " ", "")) <> 7,
Notify("Invalid Postcode Format", NotificationType.Error),
TextInputPostcode.Text := Upper(Substitute(TextInputPostcode.Text, " ", ""))
)

For email you use combobox.. use office365users connector as Item property, so that user can search and select the email addresses available in your organization...other property needs to be added as well but this is high level..

Please let me know if you need the information in detail...
