Filter List using Gallery Selection (Gallery.Selected.Value)

[AnthonyJrJr]

Hi there,

I know this question has been posted multiple times, but I just cannot understand how to "ignore" label.value and show all data when button is pressed in order to filter a SP list.

SP list name = [@'Employee Tasks']

Current filter which is working:

SortByColumns((Filter([@'Employee Tasks'], (Manager.Email = varUserEmail && Active.Value = "Active" && Status.Value = cpManagerTaskStatusFilter1.Selected.Value))
), "TaskCategory", If(SortDescending1, Descending, Ascending), "SortByPriority", If(SortDescending1, Descending, Ascending))

And what I'm trying to do is - add Gallery with 4 buttons to add an extra layer of filtering to this

Gallery1.Items = ["All","Cat 1","Cat 2","Cat 3"]

My goal is to filter based on task category which are stored in the SP list, and I have 3 categories ("Cat 1", "Cat 2" and "Cat 3"), but what I don't have is category called = "All", so when I pass the value of "All" to the filter, of course it is not working.

What I want to do is to get something like this, but with the condition if Gallery1.Selected.Value = "All" to get back all data for all 3 categories

SortByColumns((Filter([@'Employee Tasks'], (Manager.Email = varUserEmail && Active.Value = "Active" && Status.Value = cpManagerTaskStatusFilter1.Selected.Value)
&& 'Task Category' = Gallery1.Selected.Value)), "TaskCategory", If(SortDescending1, Descending, Ascending), "SortByPriority", If(SortDescending1, Descending, Ascending))

The syntax should be something like this

If(Gallery1.Selected.Value = "All" ---- return ALL values from sharepoint list "New Employee" // IGNORE Category value)
If(Gallery1.Selected.Value = "Cat 1" -- return values from sharepoint list where 'Task Category' = "Cat 1")

And so on for "Cat 2" and "Cat 3"

Thanks in advance

Hi @AnthonyJrJr ,

Try this format

SortByColumns(
   Filter(
      [@'Employee Tasks'], 
      Manager.Email = varUserEmail && 
      Active.Value = "Active" && 
      Status.Value = cpManagerTaskStatusFilter1.Selected.Value &&
      (
         Gallery1.Selected.Value = "All" ||
         'Task Category' = Gallery1.Selected.Value
      )
   ),
   "TaskCategory", 
   If(
      SortDescending1, 
      Descending, 
      Ascending
   ), 
   "SortByPriority", 
   If(
      SortDescending1, 
      Descending, 
      Ascending
   )
)
