Canvas app - search for a lookup field

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 10
Hello. I'm working on a canvas app where I would like to search for a lookup field. 
 
I have a table called with a look up to the name of a table GridOwner. 
 
When I try to add the coloumn name to search function under items in my canvas app, I get an error that it's not a text field. 

I tried to approach it in a way to add a coloumn to be able to search for it as text, but then I get the error that the coloumn name already exsits. So how can I approach this in the right way?
