Cascading Dropdown using PowerApps

    In this example we will see how to create cascading dropdown using PowerApps. We have 2 dropdowns(Country & City). Based on Country dropdown city will be loaded.



SP List setup: we have 3 lists.
Country - Contains Country Names
City    - Contains Country & Releva
nt City Names (Country is lookup from Country List)
EmployeeDetails    - Contains EmployeeName, Country & City (Lookup from City List)


Open PowerApps Studio:
Here in Employee details new form -> Any country selected City dropdown will show all city names irrelevant to the country. Using PowerApps we will show City relevant to country selected.

List Settings> Form Settings > Customize in PowerApps > PowerApps Studio will open


Customize New Form:
We will remove fields which is not required from Form. Delete Title & Attachment(Select and press delete button).

Add SP List as Data Source:
Then select data source as SharePoint > Select Site url > Select List City list(Used as Dropdown source)




Update Formula For City Dropdown:
Select City dropdown and unlock properties for editing & Update the formula with filter (based on country dropdown value it will filter cities)


Publish to SharePoint & go to our list and create new item. 

Output:
Now it will show cities based on the selected country.
