Posted on by RL-22080356-0

Hello, I was referred to write my question here since it seems more like a power app issue. I have a Sharepoint list that has cascading drop downs created with Power Apps. The three drop downs work when accessing the form in the Sharepoint list. But when i add a new item and save the information to the sharepoint list. One of the 3 columns does not populate information. It displays in the form created in PowerApps. when used in sharepoint lists. I looked at the settings in the properties for that column. But nothing seems off. There is an error in the update area. But when i leave it blank it goes away. WHat was initially in there was causing an error. But it was still not adding the information.

Sharepoint List with Power Apps not displaying Values in List

Hello @ms.ragavendar ,

My columns are single line of text converted to allowed values in Power Apps. So they are not drop downs.

I am having the issue again where it is not displaying even though i have entered the info you provided.

to clarify in my list these are single line of text still. Do you have any advice on what I am doing wrong?

@RL-22080356-0,

You mentioned Strategies column is a Single Line of Text, the correct way to reference the dropdown’s selected value depends on its Items source.

strategiesdropdown.SelectedText.Value

(or)

strategiesdropdown.Selected.Result

Previously i mentioned as StrategiesDropdown.Selected.Value (this is is only applicable if the column is of choice type) but recently your ping give me clear understanding of the DataType hence requesting you to make the change accordingly.

Check and revert me.

Sharepoint List with Power Apps not displaying Values in List

@MS.Ragavendar thank you for your reply it seemed to do the trick. I did as instructed and it get an error when i type in the code. Is that normal that it would show as an error even though it is correct? Also, typically when I start typing a code it gives me options for autofilling the correct next sequence in the code. When I entered what you instructed, it didnt do that. It made it seem like Strategiesdropdown wasnt even an option. my columns are all single line of text.

Can you let me know how you knew that was the correct name that should of been there? I would of never even thought of typing that, because i dont see any indicators that show it was an option.

@RL-22080356-0,

Update :

Click on the Strategies_DataCard in Power Apps -> Go to the Advanced tab.

In the Update field, enter: StrategiesDropdown.Selected.Value (actual name of your dropdown control).

Ensure the Default property of the dropdown is: ThisItem.Strategies

Quick query - what is the data type of Strategies column in SharePoint its Single line of text or Choice hope its not a lookup column.
