Power Apps Drop Down List Control

  • Опубликовано: 1 июл 2024
  • A drop-down list control is a graphical user interface element that allows users to select one option from a pre-defined list of choices. It's essentially a compact box that, when clicked on, expands to display multiple options in a list format. Users can scroll through this list and make a selection by clicking on one of the options. The chosen option then replaces the default text in the box, providing a clear and concise way to capture user input.
    By the end of this video, you will learn how to use the dropdown list control in your Power Apps applications. The essential properties we'll be covering include: items (or data source), value, SelectedText, Selected (to get at all the other fields in the underlying record), default, AllowEmptySelection, OnSelect, OnSelect, etc.

      Hello @PowerAppsTutorial
      I hope you're doing well.
      I've been trying to utilize the functions MicrosoftTeams.GetAllTeams() and MicrosoftTeams.GetChannelsForGroup().value (please correct me if these aren't functions) along with two dropdowns to display the teams and channels to which the user is subscribed. My goal is to make this dynamic so that I can send a file to any team/channel I select. However, for now, I can only send it to a single channel and team, even though all the ones I'm subscribed to are appearing.
      To initially address this, I wrote the following in the first dropdown: Index(MicrosoftTeams.GetAllTeams().value;4). This displays only the team I want, but even after selecting index 4, the dropdown remains blank, resulting in the following error: microsoftteams.getchannelsforgroup failed: The "getchannelsforgroup" function has an invalid value for the "groupId" parameter - a blank value was passed where it wasn't expected. Please check if a valid argument was passed to the function.
      Could you help me with this issue? I've set up the flow in Power Automate using PowerApps v2. If you know how to make it dynamic, I'd be even more grateful.

    Hello, may I ask if you explain how to make drop down required? I tried to put the following formula but I got error . If(Reason.SelectedText.Value) = true. Can you help please?

    • @PowerAppsTutorial
      @PowerAppsTutorial  2 месяца назад +1

      Use the IsBlank function. e.g. If(IsBlank(Dropdown1.Selected.Value), true, false)

    • @PowerAppsTutorial
      @PowerAppsTutorial  11 дней назад

      There are two ways to this,
      Include 'ALL' to the datasource
      or
      You can allow for Empty Selection on the dropdown property.
