Hello,
Is it possible to set the default tab (section) in Dataverse form based on a preexisting value in one of the form's field?
My case: Based on the Value in Field A set default Tab as to either GSP Validation or CTFO Validation?
Thank you
Hi @AhmedSalih ,
Is the following post helpful? Shows JavaScript to set Default Tab and maybe you can evaluate your field in the JavaScript as well to set the appropriate tab?

@dpoggemann , just for the other community members reference, I have created the script to hide a form's tab based on the value of field on the form:
function HideTestTab(executionContext) { var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext(); var action = formContext.getAttribute('action').getValue(); //This is a choice column so the value is the number value -- action is the logical name of the column var tabToHide = formContext.ui.tabs.get('tab_test'); //tab_test is the name of the tab if (action == '100000005') //Value of selected item in a choice column, if a text value, type the text value instead {tabToHide.setVisible(false);} else {tabToHide.setVisible(true);} }
Note: To set a tab as default, we can use the .setFocus instead of .setVisiable >> https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/model-driven-apps/clientapi/reference/formcontext-ui-tabs/setfocus
