I just tried to make a PowerApp connected to a Sharepoint list I made.
Two of the lists columns are Location type ones meant to designate a location I am travelling from and my planned destination so it would calculate the mileage between them.
Unfortunately, I was unable to make the app and got this error message.
{
"status": 400,
"message": "The required field \"Destination\" data type is not supported\r\nclientRequestId: db4ffc65-49cb-42bd-9eeb-6704c6bf90a3\r\nserviceRequestId: db4ffc65-49cb-42bd-9eeb-6704c6bf90a3"
}
Any help please?
Thanks.
@RezaDorrani wrote a blog post about this about 18 months ago. is there any new capability to work with these columns Reza?
Really?
Can I have the link to that blog post?
Thanks.
sorry, thought I posted it https://rezadorrani.com/index.php/2018/12/04/location-columns-for-sharepoint-online-lists-libraries/
Hi @PurpleHaze ,
Do you want to calculate the distance between two location columns?
I've made a similar test and found that: it's only supported to calculate the distance between two location columns' cities.
The point is:
Location column display as these columns in powerapps:
'location1: City'
'location1: Country/Region'
'location1: Name'
'location1: Postal Code'
location1: State'
'location1: Street'
The most detailed columns are 'location1: City' and 'location1: Street'.
I try to use 'location1: Street' to calculate distance, but received error.
Using 'location1: City' will work.
Firstly, you need to connect with bing maps.
Then use this formula to calculate:
BingMaps.GetRoute(ThisItem.'location1: City',ThisItem.'location2: City').travelDistance
Then you will get the distance between cities in location1 column and location2 column.
Maybe you want to know more about this function:

Best regards,
Hello.
After just reading your replies,
I took a stab at it again.
I remade the location columns and added the following secondary columns for each:
Street, City, State, Postcode and Name.
I tried to make the PowerApp again, directly from the Sharepoint list but came across the exact same error as before.
It does not support the overall location columns, even if I only show the subcolumns.

"status": 400,
"message": "The required field \"Travelling From\" data type is not supported\r\nclientRequestId: f0fc84df-d0d9-4f95-b3c3-7b5f17c0c8dc\r\nserviceRequestId: f0fc84df-d0d9-4f95-b3c3-7b5f17c0c8dc"
}
