Form and formula
results in sharepoint
I have a powerapps form linked to a sharepoint list.
I need to take the output of those 2 dropdown lists and put it in the list in that format, I keep hitting my head against the wall. Why did the text from the form convert to that type of output(pic2), in theformula I can see the output that I need, but for some reason I keep getting that semi random string of numbers.
Please help, I want to pull my hair out!

HI @thebigmic ,
This should work
Text(
HourValue1.Selected.Value,
"##"
) & ":" & Text(
MinuteValue1.Selected.Value,
"##"
)
Assuming of course the field in SharePoint is a Single Line of Text.

Hi @thebigmic,
Do you mean that the 'Start Time' column is a single-line-of-text to save your concatenated string?
Could you please share a bit more about your scenario?
I have a test on my side, please take a try as below.
I generate an Edit Form based on the data source directly, the control corresponding to the 'Start Time' column is a TextInput within the form. I delete it and replace with two Dropdown, one for HourValue1 and another for MinuteValue1.
Please check the screenshot as above. Here is the test result.

@WarrenBelz @v-qiaqi-msft Hi, thanks for the replies! I found a somewhat dirty workaround, I deleted the original data cards and added new ones based on the same Start Time column from SharePoint, then basically did what @v-qiaqi-msft suggested, but with only 1 dropdown list with the times in 5 min increments (I think I'll get carpal tunnel from it). I also tried @WarrenBelz suggestion, but I was getting the same type of output(It has to be some kind of bug). I think both solutions could work if PowerApps wasn't bugged out.
#For future people whit the same problem as me, try deleting the data cards and do what Qi and Warren suggested!#
