Default filtered gallery view with a drop down filter

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by JamesP106 11

Hoping this one is fairly straight forward.

 

I have a gallery view of a sharepoint list of tasks.

Each list item has both a status and a discipline attribute.

I want my powerapp to, by default, show a filtered view of my List, removing all status "Complete" tasks. I also want a drop down filter that my user can select a discipline.

 

I know how to filter a gallery view -> Filter(SPListName,Status.Value = "Assigned")

and

I know how to use a dropdown -> If(Dropdown1.Selected.Result ="All", SPListName, Filter(SPListName, Discipline.Value=Dropdown1.Selected.Result))

 

But I don't know how to use them together. Any help would be very welcome.

    Hi @JamesP106 

    Please tell me if this is the logic you are after.

    Filter(
 SPListName,
 If(
 Dropdown1.Selected.Result ="All",
 Status.Value <> "Assigned", 
 Discipline.Value=Dropdown1.Selected.Result &&
 Status.Value <> "Assigned"
 )
)

    Hi @WarrenBelz

    Thanks for your help. That didn't seem to work. I may have confused matters with my examples.

     

    My gallery is currently subject to this filter when the Discipline drop down is selected.

    If(Dropdown1.Selected.Result ="All", SPListName, Filter(SPListName, Discipline.Value=Dropdown1.Selected.Result))

     But as a default I need the gallery to not include a task which has been marked at "Assigned"

    Filter(SPListName,Status.Value <> "Assigned")

    I need these two expression joined as one.

    Solved it.

    @WarrenBelz  your approach was on the money just needed the "=" to be "<>" and its running perfectly.

     

    Filter(SPListName,If(Dropdown1.Selected.Result ="All", Status.Value <> "Assigned", Discipline.Value=Dropdown1.Selected.Result && Status.Value <> "Assigned"))

     

     

    Thanks for your help. If you want to modify your original post I'll mark as the solution.

    @JamesP106 ,

    Done - I was more focusing on syntax, however you have equals in your post. Never mind fixed now.

    @WarrenBelz 

     

    Hoping to build on the above solution.

     

    I'd like to filter out both "Assigned" AND "Completed" tasks. I've tried a few different options but am not getting far.

     

    Any assistance greatly appreciated.

    Hi @JamesP106 ,

    The below will work, but the not <> filter is not Delegable. What status values are left with these two out? I actually use the same principal on a big list, but filter on the ones I am looking for (not missing) and then it is completely Delegable.

    Filter(
 SPListName,
 If(
 Dropdown1.Selected.Result ="All", 
 Status.Value <> "Assigned" && Status.Value <> "Completed", 
 Discipline.Value=Dropdown1.Selected.Result && 
 Status.Value <> "Assigned" && Status.Value <> "Completed"
 )
)

    Thanks @WarrenBelz . 

    Delegable is good.

    The status values remaining now would be "Open" and "On Hold".

    A better approach to my problem is very welcome.

     

    Thanks

    Thanks @JamesP106 ,

    All you need is

    Filter(
 SPListName,
 If(
 Dropdown1.Selected.Result ="All", 
 Status.Value = "Open" || Status.Value <> "On Hold", 
 Discipline.Value=Dropdown1.Selected.Result && 
 Status.Value = "Open" || Status.Value <> "On Hold"
 )
)
