2. How to let my form when i hit (Foster me) button direct me to the animal info form?

Please I need the formulas for both. 

Thank you

Hi @SaifMahdi ,

 

Please confirm you have tried the below and share any errors you receive or at least describe what is not working as expected. Saying "it's the same" doesn't get you any closer to finding the issue. 

 

1.  In general to filter data in a gallery control by a Choice type column using a drop down control, you need to:

  • Set the Items property of the drop down control to (replace TableName and ColumnName with the actual names):
Choices('Animal Information'.'Shelter Status')
  • Set the Items property of the gallery to:
Filter(
    'Animal Information',
    'Shelter Status' = DropDown.Selected.Value
)

 

2. If you want the form to show the selected item from the gallery, you need to:

  • Instead of using the NewForm function in the OnSelect property of the 'Foster Me Button', use the EditForm function:
EditForm('Claim Form');
Navigate('Foster Me');
  • Also you need to set Item property of the form to reference the selected item in the gallery, in your case:
'Animal information'.Selected

Hi @SaifMahdi ,

 

1. Use a Filter function: Filter, Search, and LookUp functions - Power Platform | Microsoft Learn

2. Use a Navigate function: Back and Navigate functions - Power Platform | Microsoft Learn

  • Set the Items property of the drop down control to (replace TableName and ColumnName with the actual names):
Choices(TableName.ColumnName)
  • Set the Items property of the gallery to:

    TableName,
    ColumnName = DropDown.Selected.Value
)

 

2. Chain the Navigate function to the existing formula in the "Foster Me" button (replace AnimalInfoScreen with the actual name of the screen that has the animal info form on it):

<existing formula>;
Navigate(AnimalInfoScreen)
