Check if record exist

[JonasH]

Hey,

I want to check if a record exists in a collection or in an sql db.

I tried to use statements like "lookup" and "filter" but they should work with gallerys only.

I could imagine something similar like === in php.

Thanks for your help.

Hey @JonasH 

You can use CountRows() function to check the number of records related to specific criteria.

A dummy expression:

If(CountRows(Filter(DataSource,Name = "Value1")) > 0,"Exist","Does Not Exist")

If you can share more details about the scenario that you are trying to implement, we might be able to help you better.

Hope this Helps!

Hey @yashag2255 ,

thanks for your fast reply.

Every record has a unique GUID. The Information, which should be added to the table, should be assigned to the record with the same id.

So I just need a possibility to check if a id is in a table or not.

I think, that you solution may work. I definitive will try the statement you suggested.

Thanks for your help.
