Power Apps Portals Tip #59 - Condition Web Form Step Type - Engineered Code

In this tip, I provide an overview of the Condition Step type available when configuring your Web Form in Power Apps Portals, which allows you to branch to different next steps based on whether an expression evaluates to true or false.

This is a very useful series, thanks for putting it together. One quesiton on this one. What is the syntax of the condition...in the example it says new_example_field = 1. Is the field called new_example_field under a custom entity you have? Or is new the entity?

[@shammyowens]

Don't worry, I found it...it was an option list and you need to find the specific number in the option set per option!

Hello! Great tips but I am struggling with the condition step in recognizing a field that is blank. I used new_field == null but I keep getting an error. Any recommendations for this type of condition? Thanks

[@EngineeredCode]

I just tried it and the == null check works as expected for me. I tried it with a lookup field.

Can I use a related table as the Target Entity Logical Name?

[@EngineeredCode]

I don't think so. I think it needs to be the same as whatever the previous step, because otherwise I'm not sure how it would know which relationship to use.

Hi, thanks for the video! Can the 'Next Step if Condition Fails' be blank?

[@EngineeredCode]

I don't know if I've ever tried that. You might be able to leave it blank, but I'm not sure what it will show in that case.
