Searching, Filtering, Finding, Lookup NOT using a gallery

Ok, I have searched and read and watched many different blogs and videos and for the life of me I am still not able to find a solution to this.
I am open to any ideas where I can find a SharePoint list item based on what is entered in either a combo box, dropdown box or a text input box.
Currently I am using the following and it works but not like I would like. 
What I would like to do is search my list datasource 'CST App Portfolio" for the 'APPId' AND the 'Application Name' fields.
My current function for my list item property is: First(Filter('CST Application Portfolio',StartsWith(AppId,TextboxSearchAppID_1.Text))) 
The top box is TextBoxSearchAppID_1 and the bottom combo box is cboSearchBox1, which is the one I want to use to filter my SharePoint list items.

No matter what I seem to use, I get red error underscore lines and this is using what I am finding online.
Why are so many solutions using the gallery?

Hello Qi,
I figured it out.
This is what I had to enter in my Item property for my form.

First(Filter('CST Application Portfolio','Application Name'=cboSearchApps1.Selected.'Application Name'))

@Anonymous ,

 

Based on how I have read your description, I think you want to Filter a Gallery based on a Text Input control and a Combo Box control:

 

Filter(
    'CST App Portfolio',
    Len(cboSearchBox1.Selected.Value) = 0 || 'Application Name' in cboSearchBox1.SelectedItems,
    Len(TextInputRecordID.Text) = 0 || AppId = TextInputRecordID.Text
)

Hi @Anonymous,

Have you solved your problem?

Could you please tell me that how you set the Items property of the cboSearchBox1?

 

I think @Amik provided a valid solution, however, if you want to search based on string input, please check as below:

Filter('CST Application Portfolio',StartsWith(AppId,TextboxSearchAppID_1.Text)||
(IsBlank(cboSearchBox1.Selected)||'Application Name'.Value=cboSearchBox1.Selected.Value)
)

Here I assume that the 'Application Name' is a Choice field in your list.

Best Regards,
Qi

Hello Amik, No, I am not using a gallery. I have a list and I am pulling those list fields onto a form.
I am trying to filter the list using a combo box to find records that meet one or more search criteria.

Hello and thanks for replying Qi.
Application Name is a text column.
Currently I am using only a text input box but need to use a combo box.
The OnChange property of the search box is set to: Set(SearchQueryMainForm,TextboxSearchAppID_1.Text)
The Item property of the form is set to the following: First(Filter('CST Application Portfolio',StartsWith(AppId,TextboxSearchAppID_1.Text)))

I dropped a combo box on the form and linked the items property to the source data 'CST Application Portfolio'.

Rather than using the Text Input box to find / filter the list, I want to use the combo box "cboSearchBox1".

Hello Amik,
This is what I had to enter in my Item property for my form.

First(Filter('CST Application Portfolio','Application Name'=cboSearchApps1.Selected.'Application Name'))
This is also interchangeable if I wanted to search by the AppID
Thanks again for your input
