Greetings,
I am wanting to create a collection referencing the indexed column (WorkYear) of a SP list and would like to include "* All" in the collection (to be used in a filter dropdown). The formulas I have tried are below. This is collecting the work years; however, "* All" is not being added to the collection. The WorkYear column in SharePoint is a single line of text field, not date or numeric.
Formula1
ClearCollect( colWorkYear, Distinct( SharePointListName.Work_x0020_Year,Work_x0020_Year), Collect( colWorkYear, {Result: "* All"}))
Formula2:
ClearCollect( colWorkYear, Distinct( SharePointListName.Work_x0020_Year), Collect( colWorkYear, {Result: "* All"}))
Solved! Go to Solution.
Here is a formula that works for me:
ClearCollect(colWorkYear, Distinct(SharePointListName, Work_x0020_Year)); Collect(colWorkYear, {Result:"* All"})
Here is a formula that works for me:
ClearCollect(colWorkYear, Distinct(SharePointListName, Work_x0020_Year)); Collect(colWorkYear, {Result:"* All"})
Thanks @Jeff_Thorpe - missed it by that much :).
Your solution works great.
Is it basically one in the same to reference an SP index and SharePoint column?
Thanks!
Is SP Index is referring to index columns in a list? In general not all columns are index in a list and they don't need to be in order to use them in PowerApps. For larger lists where you are going to be using filter/lookup functions then you might want to index the columns that are being used in the filter/lookup to help with performance and the list view threshold if the list is over 5k items.
