Just wanted to say thanks for these videos. They've been incredibly helpful for me on the job. (Please, I'm begging) Keep it up!
I will if you promise to keep learning
Shane, I can’t even begin to express my gratitude. I’m so glad I found your channel. Your videos will help me and my small business to skyrocket. Thank you so much. You just gained a new subscriber buddy.
Appreciate that Mario! As a fellow small business owner this make my night. 😎
I love learning from your videos. I can actually assess the tiny details and hurdles that we come across when using powerapps. Indeed learning the trouble that goes into making a pie
Awesome
Id be lost without your videos. Thank you sir!
Glad to help.
Hi Shane, I just wanted to say thanks for the great videos. I am currently forming some apps for our business in my spare time and your videos are really easy to understand. I will inevitably end up getting a proper engineer on the job but for the time being your input has been invaluable. Take it easy
Awesome. Keep up the good work. I will do my best to make enough videos you can do it all yourself. Also, I will mention if you need help I am always available for consulting. ;)
thank you. very helpful in explaining the functionality and some of the quirks. looking fwd to doing something like this w/drop down boxes.
Awesome 😎
Thanks for the tutorials, you are helping me to keep me busy at Covid 19 time.
Thanks for such great videos! They're really helping me in my role to build PowerApps, particularly with the Search and Filter functionality :)
Glad to help. 😀
Great Videos. I have just started to work with PowerApps and your videos helped me to build powerful applications.
Awesome 😎
I have done novice programming over many years to support my primary job function. Our IT department recently forced me to abandon Visual Basic and switch to PowerApps. Thanks in great part to your videos, I was able to develop a moderately complex app in a few weeks. Whenever I got stuck on an issue I would ask, "What would Shane have to say about this?". Not only are you a Power Apps Guru, your presentation and ability to explain Power Apps is top notch. Hey, do they award Emmys for You Tube videos?
😍 I like the idea.
Brilliant! Thank you very much for all of these tutorials!
Glad to help. 😀
Love your videos Shane! Great instructional content, hitting major sought after content and perhaps best of all...getting right to the point on how to use these various features and configurations. Well done!
Thanks Bill. I try to make good content that isn’t boring. 😻
Hi Shane,
Thanks for all the tutorials. Really informative & easy to follow!
Cheers,
Joe
Glad to help. 😀
Great instruction. Got it working after some ‘trail and error’ with CDS database. Your video helped a great deal!
Very cool. I haven't tried it with CDS yet.
Hi Shane
New to PowerApps. Your videos are helping me a lot in learning the basics. Appreciate the sharing of knowledge.
You are welcome.
You are the most extensive source of insights!!!! Thanks a lot for sharing!!
Awe! thank you. 🐶
2020 and still lokking at this, nice jo, thx for sharing i appreciate, it's helps me a lot
Glad to help. 😀
Thanks for this helped me out greatly. Love the demos you do...
Glad to hear it!
@@ShanesCows unfortunately not didn't quite do what I wanted. On a form we want to pull the list of choices from SharePoint choice field and then set the default on the the field based on a selection from a different field...just not working. Thinking it has to do with the fact powerapps see that field as a record with all the fields of SharePoint in it. Going to tinker more when I get time to see if I can make it work.
- Great stuff, you are really helping me. I am designing something amazing for our workplace and you are going to be our saving grace. THANKS! I know I will have questions and will send through to you. Would love to show you what I came up with in the end, as a non-developer who just wants to make life easier (oh, and enjoys this stuff!). Thank you for being so clear and being very honest about what works, what doesn't and what wastes time. So helpful!
Feel free to email me shane @powerapps911.com anything you want to share. Thank 😻
Shane keep on rocking mate! Very helpfull stuff
Glad to help :)
Thanks Shane! You're the man. I used the same method on a data table with the same results.
Awesome
Great tutorial Shane but my issue is a bit different. I need to filter values from a table BEFORE loading those items into a gallery. The attribute I need to filter by is a type 'Choices' in the CDS/Dataverse table. I was able to filter against a simple text attribute.
Thank you so much Shane!!! This helped me greatly!!!
Awesome!
Your descriptions are very clear.
I have zero coding experience. I am a heavy excel user.
Saw this and "PowerApps User Function and intro to Office 365 User connector" and made a PowerApp for my team to track time spent on various JIRA issues on various projects.
Thanks a lot for sharing.
Plan to do more apps.
Awesome! Kudos to you for rolling up your sleeves and learning some new stuff.
Shane you're a hero !
Thanks!
your tutorials are very helpful !
Glad you like them!
Still watching and learning in 2020. Hope you are safe and well
I am and thank you. Almost to 100 videos so I am still going. Hope the help you
You are the best! Tanks a lot for your content!!
Glad to help. 😀
Hello Shane, thank you so much for producing PowerApps videos that are easy to follow and explain the mechanics. Sure it is possible to secure what a user has access to by security groups. For example in my app I need give teams of people access to specific areas in the app through the gallery. For instance say my departments are Peru, India, Ireland, and US, a team needs the ability to access Peru, but not see the other departments.
Thank you in advance for your help. Keep up the great work.
Try out this video for some ideas. ua-cam.com/video/0MB-z9cyFCQ/v-deo.html
Awesome content as usual!
Thanks 🙏
Good afternoon, I would like to thank you for all the content you post, I am Brazilian here there is content but it does not come close to your explanations. Thank you very much for your time and dedication, I will continue to follow your publications. Sorry for the writing I am not very good at the language.
Great videos. Would have been nice to see the detail in your SharePoint list. I'm a newbie and it would have helped me put things together much easier since we went so fast viewing the filter. Thanks for posting.
Sorry Linda. Did you get it figured out? I will try to do better in future videos. Thanks for The feedback
Good Coverage. Thanks!
Happy to help
Thank you so much for this, it's incredibly valuable and precisely what I need to build for a client of mine! You are straightforward and very knowledgeable.
Glad to help
Thanks you for your sharing! Help me so much
Awesome 👏
Hi Shane, First, I would like to truly thank you for these tutorials they have been a massive help to me in understanding how PowerApps work. Quick question! How do I keep the data rows visible the entire time and not jeopardize filter/search functionality?
BEST REGARDS & THX A LOT FROM MEXICO!
Gracias! 😀
Hey Shane, There isnt a single day passed in past week without me watching your videos. Keep up the awesome work. I love your videos. Do you have the video explaining about Lookup function using SharePoint lists? If so, can you share me the link?
Glad to help. Maybe this video? ua-cam.com/video/43ekj5MlNJU/v-deo.html
Hi Shane!
Once Again big Fan!!!
Lets say now you have a team assigned for the project activities and when one fofthem Mark it as "Completed" notify all teammates on the project
Thanks!!!
Look for ForAll video. 😀
Hey Shane. These vids are boss, thank you. Question: what about filtering with collections? Your examples worked well with SharePoint data, but didn't return any results when I swapped the data for a collection. Thoughts?
Thanks Shane.
It would be great if You could always show the data used in your video at the begining. You used to do that :)
You are right. Sorry, sometimes I get too excited and forget. Do you need info from this video? I can get it for you.
Shane, you are simply the "go to" for so many of us - thank you! The videos are fantastic. I wondered if you can point me to a video where you show how to use "If" with Filter. So for example a gallery would only display those who's favourite colour was RED but only IF they were older than 32 (trying to put this in terms of your data). I have tried using two labels (one showing a criteria for IF and a second for the FILTER criteria. Something like If(AgeBox.Value > 32, Filter('Employees', FavouriteColourBox.Text = FavouriteColour.Value), "")) but I am missing something. I hope I am describing what I want, and I am sure it is an existing video somewhere. Would love a pointer. Again thanks for your helpful videos
Filter(Employees, Age > 32 and Color = "Red")
Shane thank you for the numerous videos and information. I'm looking for a little more help, I have a table (TruckData) that contains a column named "Status" and the two options for status are "in service" or "out of service". I'm looking to create buttons (3 buttons "view all trucks" "view in service trucks" "view out of service trucks") that allow me to filter (or search) my results based on the text in the status field. I feel like this video is close to what I'm looking for but can't get it to populate correctly. Any suggestions?
Thanks for the video.. as always..:)
You are welcome
Another great video Shane. I would really like to see a parent-child and a parent-child-grandchild application where you are not just pulling data but writing back data to SharePoint list.
Say a Purchase Requisition (PR) or Purchase Order (PO) system with a PR/PO header, PR/PR Line items and some of the items may have lines of details attached to them.
For the Child/Grandchild form can you edit multiple lines in one screen/form then post back/save all the items back to the data source with a link to the parent.
We could do something like that. I will put it on the list but, it might be a while. The list is getting long. :)
I'm with Marlon, Shane. Please move this up on your list of videos to make.
I think this is the video you are looking for. :) ua-cam.com/video/43ekj5MlNJU/v-deo.html
Hi Shane, your videos are amazing. I have a query with respect to this video, do you have another video which explains how to edit the specific entry which we get as a result of filter?
Hi Shane , thanks for this tutorial. I would like to ask a tutorial on how to summarise expenses by category base on selected employees name.
GroupBy function is the answer but would be a good video.
You have been very helpful in getting me up to speed on PowerApps. Thanks! Shane. A quick question: How do I know when to put something in quotes? IOW, what kinds of things must be in quotes, and when is the name of the object (sans quotes) the right syntax?
Text is always in quotes. Sometimes column names inside of functions are in quotes. (Like SortByColumns and Search). I don't know I have a solid answer here. You Just have to kind of figure it out. The best way is if you look at what the formula is suggesting in the dropdown as you type that is a hint. Sorry for a weak answer.
Hi Shane, Thank you for the amazing videos. How would you go about filtering Gallery if Lookup Columns has multi select choice. i. e multiple projects are assigned to the same project task.
Look for my video on the In function
Hi,
firstly, thank you so much for sharing :). I want to ask a question that instead we use 3 different datasources, can i use only 1 data source but show different fields?
For example, i have a SP list contained all fields from Project name, project task and project detail. Can i do the same as yours? Thanks in advance and hope to get your response.
Yes. Each gallery you control what fields you show so should work.
Thank you and well done. How would you add data to those tables, from PowerApps? Example, like access, a form with a subform?
Look for my video on repeating tables like infopath
Thank you so much. Can you make a video on how to use filter function to do Type ahead drop drown field? That list coming from a different SP list and its a metadata column
Thanks again
Powerapps doesn’t really do type ahead. Try a combobox with IsSearchable set to true. Might be what you need
Hi Shane,
How to display HTML text (text containing HTML tags in Sharepoint List) in Display Form?
Hi Shane. Great video, very informative! Any advice on how to utilize the filter functionality to create a search center app for SharePoint document libraries (potentially hundreds of libraries)? Since the search in SP itself isn't great, I am considering building a solution in PowerApps for my company instead of using a SP Search Center site. Thanks!
I think SharePoint search is probably better than what you can do in PowerApps. But I hope you prove me wrong. 😀
Hi there Shane. Great videos. Thank you. I would love to see the power of Lookup, Filter, Sort, SortByColumns, and GroupBy all combined to manipulate Gallery views against Sharepoint lists. Its a tough road without someone showing off examples.
Happy to help. Can you give me a more exact idea of what you want to see?
Sure. Here is a complex example of needing Sort/Filter/Lookup combinations: powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Discussion/Complex-Sort-Filter-LookUp-function/m-p/105053#M38425
How to combine LookUp, SortByColumns, CountIf, Distinct, and Filter to pull records into galleries would be AWESOME.
Shane. How do I put a button that searches in a (large) Sharepoint for the User and any of the other columns, but get too many hits so I need a secondary search of the supplier, so first it was user "x" and supplier "any or all" by default but then it's User "x" and supplier "intel".
Your videos have been amazing. I'm curious, is it possible to have a filter condition be an array? For example, is it possible to filter a list based on the names of all of the DirectReports?
Yup. Try this video that explains In ua-cam.com/video/MeQDIBrJjRg/v-deo.html or this one about duplicates ua-cam.com/video/Ap3_Ea9H8b0/v-deo.html. Both talk about the concept more.
Hi Shane,
Great demos and tutorials, thanks for your guidance. I have a question, Is there any way to change dynamically the data source of a Gallery? Based on a button on screen 1, show a specific SharePoint list on screen 2? So we could apply a filter on the second screen? Thanks
Not really. You can use If or a collection of the two datasource have the same columns
Hi Shane, Great video, Small request , Kindly show us if you using any lookup data columns from SPO lists, Could you please let us show also list data another videos how using in power apps
Hi Shane, Suppose I need to use only one DataTable to display from SharePoint. But i have to display only two columns out of 8 columns based on selection of buttons.
My Scenario: If I select "customer" button i have to display "customer" column and "Title"Column. If I select "Product" button i have to display "product" column and "Title"Column.....Similarly for other columns too. The thing is I have to make use of single data table to display only two columns out of 8 columns based on button selection
I relied to Prasad in email but in case anyone else is wondering what I would do is use multiple data tables on top of each other. Then only make the one visible that shows the columns I want to show.
Hi Shane! this video is very helpful -thank you so much!
However, I am having issues with my data source. I have a excel file with more than 10,000 records but PowerApps only shows 2,000 records when I do the filtering. What is your recommendation in this case?
Thank you!
You need to read up on Delegation in PowerApps. docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/delegation-overview Long story short for that much info I think you will need to consider a different data source.
You're the man!! One question, can I go to next gallery item if I'm in one of the detail pages?
Possible? Yes. Easy no. Lots of tweaks required but no quick answer. Sorry
Thank you for this video and others
I want to ask if there is any relationship between the table may be with unique ID and if the ans is no, how is the powerapps know which record to pick in the details when summary is clicked.
Thanks
Yes the record has to have a primary key for Power Apps to edit it
Hi Shane, another great video! :) I have a bit of an issue with date picking and live filtering; the drop-down boxes and input fields all auto-filter the gallery I'm wanting to fix, but the date-picker (I have two pickers to determine a range) doesn't auto-filter. If another input is changed it'll filter then, but it doesn't filter by itself/doesn't filter live like other. Apologies for the bombardments of questions lately
Justin see if this video helps you think through how better ua-cam.com/video/kLGglidmPxg/v-deo.html
Hi Shane, thanks for the video . I need some insights on one of my tasks. I have a sharepoint library with 10 different columns of metadata . I want to create a form in power apps with 10 text input fields . i want user to pick a particular column1 (emp id) in text input 1 . when emp id is selected , i want to populate rest of the 9 column values to textinput fields based on emp id in text input1 . How can i accomplish this ? Is there a related video . Thanks for your help.
Hi Shane, thanks for this tutorial. I have a question for you. Can you give me an example of a DataTable Filter? I cannot make it work.
What have you tried? Filter works the same regardless of what control you use it with.
Shane Young, Hi, for me also the filter is not working for the data table. Can u pls help with this? I have inserted the data table and connected with SQL table. now the data are showing but the filter is not working for me. I have tried a lot. And also can u pls explain how the sum of a specific column will be shown.
Thanks for this! Is there a way to connect a gallery and a form on the same screen in the way you are connecting the two galleries? In my case I am using Power BI Data integration data plus a sharepoint list.
Blake I think this is what you are looking for? PowerApps Repeating Tables like InfoPath Part 2 - View and edit the data ua-cam.com/video/DylxsXIUyDc/v-deo.html
Hi Shane, Thankyou for this another amazing video..I want to show edit button on each record of gallery..How to do this?
You can add a button to the gallery. What are you struggling with?
Hi Shane, thanks for these amazing videos, we love them! We're trying to build an ap that lets a user find an entry (row) based on a variety of criteria (columns) the user could chose from 3 different drop down menus to find entries by country, by contact or by category. What we can't figure out is how to make one single gallery combine the search results of each box. (For example choosing all entries where Sean is the contact that refer to the country Peru.) We can make this work using search or filter for either of the fields, but we can't get the gallery to draw from multiple fields simultaneously. Can you explain how to do that? (maybe your next video :))
Hi. Yeah that one is tricky. What I did last time to solve that was put the whole data set in a collection. Then I filter the collection each time you input a search criteria.
Thank you so much! I'll watch your video about collections (I've only just read about them) and I'll follow up if I have questions!
Hi Shane, thanks for this tutorial.How to use Lookup column which is from parent site.
Just had the data source and it should work.
This was perfect - just what I needed. So my two lists are work orders and statuses and I am using excel as a data source. Was able to duplicate filter one gallery based on the selected value in another gallery. Now how do I get the sort to work with this?
Just wrap sort around the filter.
Hi Shane, your videos are super helpful! Is it possible to apply a search function and a filter function to the same gallery? I'd like to make it possible to search all columns, and also make it possible to filter by specific columns. I've gotten the search and filter functions to work separately, but I'm having trouble applying them both to a single gallery. Thanks!
I am in the same predicament Shane. I need to search for a specific text but display the result filtered by those records greater or equal to today.
Thanks Shane, really enjoying your videos.
How can I use "or" filter? You said that "," is "and", but I need "or" in order to filter by multiple columns.
I faced the same challenge ...
SortByColumns(Filter('Report database', (
(StartsWith('Customer_name',TextSearchBox1.Text) ||
StartsWith('Customer_country',TextSearchBox1.Text)) ||
(StartsWith('Customer_city',TextSearchBox1.Text) ||
StartsWith('Key_Account_Manager_Name',TextSearchBox1.Text))
) )
, "Report_x0020_date", If(SortDescending1, Descending, Ascending))
The magic with the blocks of brackets is as far as I know necessary, since || can only check two statements and not a row of more than two - so for many columns it will be brackets and brackets and brackets and brackets. At least it did not work without the brackets for me, with brackets it works. If anyone knows better, please let me know.
And the beauty of it: all delegable - docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/delegation-list
Hi Shane, thank you so much for this video. Can you please confirm/help if this works with same list as well? Means I would like to show all the items belongs to 1 category in a second gallery.
Thank you!
Happy to help
Hi shane, thankyou for sharing such knowledgeable video,
Can you share a video on user based information access, user can see only that info which he is allow to see.
You can do that with filter or hiding button. Also, look at CDS it has some data security options.
@@ShanesCows Thanku sir,
I have one more question
I made a power app from ms excel, but most of the time while i submit the form i get an error "your data source may be invalid" i tried so many times but still the same error coming, i also change table name, i tried with approx 30 forms but still not found what is the exact reason. Do you have any idea.
Hi Shane, thanks for all your videos. Do you have a video about using the 'Search' or 'Filter' function for a 'Choice' column in a Sharepoint list? No matter what I try, I get an error message - usually along the lines of 'Wrong type. Expects text type'.
I trawled forums and documentation high and low but can't find any useful information on this.
I would love for end users to be able to search for items by the 'Week' choice column in the Sharepoint list (eg: Week-01, Week-02 ...etc).
Shane, I'm having similar issues as threewiseman1. Looks like I am running into delegation problems when I try to filter by the choice column from the sharepoint list. I've figured out that I can create a collection from the sharepoint list, add a new column using the values from the choice column and then filter from the newly added column to get the gallery to show what I want. However, this doesn't help the overall project I'm working on because I still need to be able to edit and update the original sharepoint connection in the edit screen. How would I do that?
The project I'm working on is a simple status update app that a field agent can use to respond to new task requests entered in the sharepoint list. The sharepoint choice column that I'm referencing and having trouble with happens to be a status column. SInce there are many rows in the list, it only makes sense to display SP list records that are "open" and filter out the ones that are "complete." Am I on the right track with using a collection on the gallery?
Hi Shane, thanks for the great instructional videos. This may be a SharePoint question, but it relates to PowerApps. I have a course catalog (SharePoint list) with a SME (Subject Matter Expert) column containing multiple names of individuals. This SME column will not pull into PowerApps as a field for the list. My end goal is to filter the list of courses by those associated with the SMEs. Some courses have the names of multiple SMEs associated with it and who need to comment on the course updates. Any ideas? Thanks!
How would Filter on Drop Down Box on form be performed. Using 2 columns one shows value some text(Homepage) column and if the Active Column equal to "Yes" then display only those lines to select from.
Use the filter function in the items property of the drop down
Hello Shane, first your videos are life savers. I have a quick question. If I want a list to display as a gallery filtered on the current user (I.e. I have Sharepoint list filtered to [me]) how would accomplish the same thing in a powerapp?
Filter(SharePointlist, emailcolumn = user().email) is an example
Hi Shane, Firstly, thank you for these tutorials they have been a massive help to me in understanding how PowerApps work. I have a sharepoint list with 30+ columns and am trying to build a power app to enable me to better manage that data (it's an order tracker for hosted telephony). I can display the fields I want in a data table but only want the records that are not marked as complete to show in the table (so as to track the states of in progress orders). My sharepoint list has a field called "Order Status" which, in sharepoint is a "Choice" field. WHen I am trying to filter the info in this data table, I am hitting errors. I'm very new to this so am probably missing something really simple, but the filter statement is along the lines of "Filter('PBX Systems'.'Order Status', 'Order Status' "Complete")". Can you tell me what I am missing?
Filter('PBX Systems', 'Order Status' "Complete") Seems like it should work.
Hi There, your videos are very helpful. Do you have any videos that shows how to save results of a gallery/collection after multiple filters, to be saved in sharepoint list? (details could have several rows, but can it be saved in just one sharepoint list record?
To make it one record check out the concat function.
Can we have video on approval workflow in power Apps canvas and flow ?
Hi Shane. I can't seem to figure my issue out. I want to create a gallery that filters a master list of employees from SharePoint. The filter would be their employee number. I need the gallery to see which employees are listed on various other SharePoint lists. So if an employee is on the master list, the gallery would show which, if any, of the 4 sub lists I have.
Changing to use the “in” operative works as expected. We can now search for “Repair” and get all the matching repairs. The filter also only searches the “Title” column. Hence, if we searched for “Travel” we would return no results. However, we can combine different conditions using the or operative which is denoted as a “||”.
SortByColumns(
Filter(
Expenses,
TextSearchBox1.Text in Title || TextSearchBox1.Text in Category
),
"ExpenseDate",
If(
SortDescending1,
Descending,
Ascending
)
)

Thanks Shane, Pretty new to this and love your videos. I'm trying to add a Filter to show all records except for one type. I can set the 'Project Status'.Value = "Open" and I know I can't use "Closed" with SP lists. How can I show all records except those the are marked as "Closed"
With SharePoint might be easiest to do all of the positive. Status = Opened Or Status = pending Something like that.
great video! tnkx, but can i do if i want to have questions with multi filter like this case but not simple list, i mean i want to answer questions like select a choise between 1 to 4
Not sure I excatly follow.
You can use And and Or functions if you wanted to in your filter or If.
docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/functions/function-logicals
Hi Shane, Thank you for the video. If the filter does not have the item in the gallery, is there any way to popup a message or disable a button not allowing the user to continue so they won't reach an empty gallery?
Yes. Look up my video on conditional formatting. You can check if the results IsEmpty and not show the button if true.
Hi!! thanks for your videos, really helpfull!! , do you know if there is a way to create something like a pivot table (Excel) in powerapps???
... Maybe. I have never tried but I am guessing with enough elbow grease you could get something similiar. Not sure
Hi Shane - Thanks for all your videos. I can't figure why Filter isn't working for me unless I press enter and it has to be the exact location. I've tried to add StartWith and nothing happens. The Default for the Gallery is blank. Any suggestions to troubleshoot?
Hi Shane
How would you filter multiple columns at once(filter subfields and titles with the same search bar)?
Filter can have multiple conditions. Filter(DataSource, Subfields = SearchInput.text, Title = SearchInput.Text) Something like that should work.
Awesome!! ....
You are awesome! Thanks
Hi Shane
You are good teacher!! it is very good video for very biggner.
Can I have some data sourse which is used in the video?
Thanks. Sorry, I don't have a way to share data sources. You would just have to make some test data.
Thank you for this video, i just have an issue, i did exactly the same but the '=' sign is underlined in my case and i don't understand why...
If you hover over the underline with your mouse PowerApps should tell you why it is angry.
Hi Shane, Thanks for your videos, they're a great asset to power-apps. I have a question. When you select the play button on top right to view the gallery, I don't get any fields showing up. Just a blank screen. Any idea why this maybe the case? Thanks in advance.
I would look at your items property again. Also check you have a label that is set to show a field with data
Brilliant. How about a dropdown option that filters a gallery, and a button to clear that filter? Thanks.
This will help. ua-cam.com/video/kLGglidmPxg/v-deo.html 😀
Thank you Shane, very usefull. i would like filter on 2 columns with the same text box, it is possible, example, i want to filter the name of IT tool, whether the IT Discipline., please advise, Thanks
Filter(datasource, column1 = textinput1.text Or column2 = textinput1.text)
Great video ... I'll be watching many more of them. I just have one nagging issue. My filter box says "This data type is unsupported for evaluation | Data type:Control".
You set the value to TextInput instead of TextInput.Text
Every time I watch one of your videos, I up my game that much more. This is great! I am creating an app that will allow complete management of items in a list without having to go to the list at all. One of my galleries is used along with a form to input new records. I have the this gallery filtered to show only items created by the current user and created today(). The app opens to this screen. What settings do I need to change so the frame and first item separator of the gallery are visible before any new records are added? The page is empty except for the Title I added and the NewForm. The gallery itself is not visible until the first record in the current session is added.
Hi Juli. You would have to write a formula for visible that didn’t show the other stuff while that first field was blank.
Hi Shane, in your search video I watched before this, you had the issue (right at the end) where you created your app from a Sharepoint List which only searched based on Title, and you mentioned looking at and fixing that issue in the filter video. I still can't seem to work this out...my app only searches on my title, but I have a contact list where I want users to be able to lookup contacts based on contact persons name, title (organisation), contact number or email address etc...So I want search to work based on multiple fields. Is there a way to do this? Thank you :)
