Power Apps Filter

[RJF61]

I am trying to establish a Filter in Power Apps for a SharePoint List.  At this point I would like the Filter to display records based on the following...

Records where text from Issue box startswith.  This works with "Filter('Safety Good Catch Items',StartsWith(Issue,txtIssue.Text))"

OR

Status = Selected Status Value

OR

AssignedTo = Selected Pulldown Value

I was trying "Filter('Safety Good Catch Items',StartsWith(Issue,txtIssue.Text) || Status.Value = Radio2.Selected.Value)" but my syntax is obviously not correct.  I would appreciate any assistance.

Hi @RJF61 ,

The syntax is structurally correct

Filter(
   'Safety Good Catch Items',
   StartsWith(
      Issue,
      txtIssue.Text
   ) || 
   Status.Value = Radio2.Selected.Value
)

assuming Status is a Choice column and Radio2 Items are

Choices('Safety Good Catch Items'.Status)

Is this the case.

Hi @WarrenBelz

Yes, the information you provided is the case; however, when I don't enter text in the Issue and Select a Radio Button Choice, I do not receive the Filtered records.  I have also noticed that entering text in the Issue box provides some errors (with the OR's).  By itself it works fine.

Hi @RJF61 ,

Make the Default of txIssue "" (empty string) and it will not restrict if the box is empty.

Hi @WarrenBelz I did have that as the default.  I did notice that when I type "" in txtIssue, the Filter works.  Any suggestions why that would occur?  Also, with other text entry, it appears to error.

Thanks

Hi @RJF61 ,

Not sure on your question here, but StartsWith will always work and not filter with an empty string (everything starts with it). What is the error and code on the other one?
