Forms:Assigning a value to a data card

[abd3127]

Hello,

I am having a dropdown in my app on screen 1 

Then on screen 2, i am using froms to use custom data cards.

The datacard is LookUp type as my column in SP list is "Choice Column"

Now what i want to do is use the selected value of dropdown from screen 1 and assign it to the LOOKUP in my forms,which is i am able to do by assigning the dropdown value as Default for data card.

There is a Update Property of Data Card which i  need to Set to Update this value in SP list.

Now when i  submit the form it does not use the default value of DataCard ,but it uses the Default value from SP list and inserts it in the SP column.

How can i make this happen?

Thanks in advance

Can you provide the formula that is being used in the default property of the DataCard on screen2.

Hi @Jeff_Thorpe

I am using value of Dropdown from first screen as default value for lookup card on screen 2

Default=Dropdown.selected

Hi @abd3127,

I think you have noticed that the Choice field is lookup type.

So in order to have the data submitted correctly, we need to change the Default property of the auto-generated lookup control in the following format:

{'@odata.type':"#Microsoft.Azure.Connectors.SharePoint.SPListExpandedReference",
  Value: Dropdown.Selected.Value}

Doing it in this way should have the default value submitted correctly. Make you you have the Value1 set to Value, in order for this field to display correctly.
