Patch items based on checkbox values.

[TCH]

Hi guys, 

I am trying to make an SD Scale in Powerapps, it looks like this: 

 I have an SP List with corresponding column names as the opposites, so on called Brugbar/Ubrugelig etc. What i would like, if it is possible at all is to patch the number(what checkbox is selected) to that column, so for example: 

If, in between labels Brugbar & Ubrugelig i have selected number 5(counting from the left) i would then like to be able to press the button and patch the number 5 to that column in the SharePoint List.

 

I have come up with a solution, however that requires 36 If statements, which i feel probably is not gonna be that stable 🙂 

Thanks in advance.

Hey @TCH 

You can use the expression as:

Patch(
DataSource,
Defaults(DataSource),
{
"Brugbar/Ubregelig": If(Checkbox1.Value, 1,Checkbox1_1.Value,2, Checkbox1_2.Value, 3, Checkbox1_3.Value, 4, Checkbox1_4.Value, 5, Checkbox1_5, 6),
"Logisk/Unilogisk": If(Checkbox2.Value, 1,Checkbox2_1.Value,2, Checkbox2_2.Value, 3, Checkbox2_3.Value, 4, Checkbox2_4.Value, 5, Checkbox2_5, 6),
...
}
)

This will fetch the results accordingly and patch them. You need to use the If loop for all the columns.

In case you want to clear the selection if user tries to change input on any checkbox for each row, you can set the "OnChange" property of all the checkboxes as:

Checkbox1: OnChange: Reset(Checkbox1_1);Reset(Checkbox1_2); ... -> Similarly add the checkboxes you want to clear when this is changed.

Hope this Helps!
