SharePoint Integration load event

[darylvogan]

Still new to PA but getting better. I'm building a complex SP form and when the form loads, I need to inspect several values to then build a collection which will then be displayed via a gallery. What is the right way to do this? I obviously can react to changes, but how do implement this logic upon some initial loading event?

Thanks in advance for feedback

Hi @darylvogan ,

Put it in App OnStart or OnVisible of the first screen shown. Be aware however if you change records (select another one) without refreshing SharePoint, it may not trigger.

Thanks @WarrenBelz . However, I'm not sure what you mean. Put what in the App OnStart? Do you mean logic to query the sharepoint item (since the form hasn't loaded yet). Will I then have to duplicate the logic on the change events of the actual controls?

Hi @darylvogan ,

I probably need to know what you are doing here - you mentioned a collection and an initial loading event and I posted two examples of these. If the "inspection" relates to control values that have been modified by a user, then that is the wrong place - you would do it OnChange of the control.
