Hi Guys,
I'm new on PowerApps and i already learn a lot. This App is wonderful, but i need your help right now. Thanks in advance.
As you can see on my Sharepoint List (please see attachements), i have 3 lines. 2 of them has the Statut = Nouveau.
I would like to know how i can regroup them in a gallery in PowerApps. Cause for now, when i create a gallery, my gallery create a line for every "Nouveau" i have in my SharepointList. (see attachment)
I only want two lines in my gallery : "Nouveau"and "En cours"
Thanks for your help
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Dyxt,
It looks like Statu is a Choice type column in Sharepoint. You can save yourself a lot of aggravation by either converting Choice columns to Single line of text or Numbers from within Sharepoint. I have never lost data by doing this but the other way is to create a new calculated column and put the Choice column in as the calculation. You can then use the new calculated column in Powerapps. Choice and Lookup columns are embedded tables and INHO are meant for use in SharePoint and are not designed for Powerapps. Thats the reason for the complicated work arounds. The screen capture on the left is from the Sharepoint Online with the list settings and create columns clicked and the calculated type chosen. In this case, the Categories column is a Choice type. Note the single line of text option below the type of information section. Unfortunately, this will not work for Lookup type columns. A different approach is necessary for unpacking them. I hope this helps.
If you want to be able to click on either "Nouveau" or "En cours" to see all items with that current "Statut" you will have to use a Gallery and some sort of Control to select that value.
Here's a basic setup using a Collection of three items with a Status column.
Between the first Gallery and the Dropdown is the Distinct() method I use to get all values in the column status.
Distinct(items, status).Result
Then to filter the Second Gallery I use a Filter
//For the dropdown
Filter(items, status = Dropdown.Selected).Result
//For the gallery
Filter(items, status = firstGallery.Selected).Result)
I believe this is a basic example of what you want to achieve.
Hi @Dyxt This might get you started: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Community-Video-Gallery/Creating-a-PowerApps-Leaderboard-GroupBy.... It's created a leader board using grouping and summing of rows with a SharePoint list as the source. The key is going to be to point to your SharePoint list but replace the Items property in the gallery with your proper GroupBy code. Then you can group with whatever date you wish. Hope that gets you started down the right path.
I tried what this guy do in the video but unfortunately my f(x) does not find my column in my share point list.
He find my list : Tickets , but when i type Statut it does not working.
Why does my powerapps not find my column "Statu"or any other column ?
See attachment
Sharepoint in my case has changed the name it presents back to PowerApps. you may have to try a few to see if it's masking it as a different column. For example, my column Nominated, is Nominated_x593 and another column turned from Category to L2823J for some ungodly reason. Another potential cause could be some columns in SharePoint like People Pickers are nested columns where you have to go under the column name like Person.Department to find the actual data.
Try to refresh your data source also just in case.
I'm not too certain then. I wonder if Status (french: Statut) is a reserved word and may be giving you the problem. Out of curiousity, if you create a new column with the status data in sharepoint with a slightly different name like StatusMessage, does it work?
Yes i already tried with many column : Description , Cree_par, ... I dont ahve any siggestion once i type GroupBy(Tickets,
What can i do ?
Have any idea whats wrong
Try the following on a Label Text property or anywhere else to see if you get any intellisense options:
Tickets.
If you dont get anything from that Tickets might not be the name of your connection but something else you have set in your application.
If you get intellisense options from that then try your group by connection with quotation marks around the column title.
GroupBy(Tickets, "Statut", "NameYouWantToGiveYourGroup")

The Reading Dynamics 365 and Power Platform User Group is a community-driven initiative that started in September 2022. It has quickly earned recognition for its enthusiastic leadership and resilience in the face of challenges. With a focus on promoting learning and networking among professionals in the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform ecosystem, the group has grown steadily and gained a reputation for its commitment to its members! The group, which had its inaugural event in January 2023 at the Microsoft UK Headquarters in Reading, has since organized three successful gatherings, including a recent social lunch. They maintain a regular schedule of four events per year, each attended by an average of 20-25 enthusiastic participants who enjoy engaging talks and, of course, pizza. The Reading User Group's presence is primarily spread through LinkedIn and Meetup, with the support of the wider community. This thriving community is managed by a dedicated team consisting of Fraser Dear, Tim Leung, and Andrew Bibby, who serves as the main point of contact for the UK Dynamics 365 and Power Platform User Groups. Andrew Bibby, an active figure in the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform community, nominated this group due to his admiration for the Reading UK User Group's efforts. He emphasized their remarkable enthusiasm and success in running the group, noting that they navigated challenges such as finding venues with resilience and smiles on their faces. Despite being a relatively new group with 20-30 members, they have managed to achieve high attendance at their meetings. The group's journey began when Fraser Dear moved to the Reading area and realized the absence of a user group catering to professionals in the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform space. He reached out to Andrew, who provided valuable guidance and support, allowing the Reading User Group to officially join the UK Dynamics 365 and Power Platform User Groups community. One of the group's notable achievements was overcoming the challenge of finding a suitable venue. Initially, their "home" was the Microsoft UK HQ in Reading. However, due to office closures, they had to seek a new location with limited time. Fortunately, a connection with Stephanie Stacey from Microsoft led them to Reading College and its Institute of Technology. The college generously offered them event space and support, forging a mutually beneficial partnership where the group promotes the Institute and encourages its members to support the next generation of IT professionals. With the dedication of its leadership team, the Reading Dynamics 365 and Power Platform User Group is poised to continue growing and thriving! Their story exemplifies the power of community-driven initiatives and the positive impact they can have on professional development and networking in the tech industry. As they move forward with their upcoming events and collaborations with Reading College, the group is likely to remain a valuable resource for professionals in the Reading area and beyond.
