Power Apps Search Filter Issue

Posted on by AL-01100918-0

On this app, when I search for '3 R', the item [3 Rings] is displayed.

When I search for 'Rings', it does not find or display [3 Rings].

How can I edit the search box to filter any letters or words so I can see 3 Rings by only typing 'Rings'?

Format below:

SortByColumns(
    Filter(
        [@'Appendix D - Product and Service Approved & Prohibited List'],
        StartsWith(
            Title,
            TextSearchBox1.Text
        )
    ),
    "Title",
    If(
        SortDescending1,
        SortOrder.Descending,
        SortOrder.Ascending
    )
)

markperrah - Thank you

Unfortunately, I am now getting unexpected behaviour - the '3 Rings' record has disappeared along with other records when searching:

A Filter action with "in" won't return all results due to delegation. You can increase the delegation limit in Power Apps to handle more rows, but it won't solve the issue for datasets larger than 2,000 rows.

Hi,

Please try the below FX formula to search based on the text input.

SortByColumns(
    Filter(
        [@'Appendix D - Product and Service Approved & Prohibited List'],
        Search(@Datasource, TextSearchBox1.Text,Title)
    ),
    "Title",
    If(
        SortDescending1,
       SortOrder.Descending,
        SortOrder.Ascending
    )
)

Note: Replace the @Datasource with your entity

Hope this helps.

Thanks!
