Hello

I am working on a survey app and app is connected to sharepoint and i am trying to figure it out that when user select all the fields and when it click on button it should save all the data in sharepoint. I tried using SubmitForm(EditForm) but still is not working. i have attached the picture of my application.

I tried using two different way, First input button into new datacard and also without data card, but still its not working.

I may be misunderstanding but it seems you are using SubmitForm(EditForm) as the code for the OnSelect property of the button, yes? If so, the "Edit Form" portion is the problem. You need the name of your form, which from the pictures you posted seems to be SharePointForm1. Try:

SubmitForm(SharePointForm1)

What are the values for your form?
DataSource?
Item?

Do you have a button that is doing NewForm(SharePointForm1)?

Add a button that says "Create new Form" for OnSelect put NewForm(SharePointForm1)
Add a button that says "Save to SharePoint" for OnSelect put SubmitForm(SharePointForm1)

Click button 1, fill out the form, click button 2

Does that work?

How about go to your SharePoint list and click the PowerApps button. Then choose Create an App.

Then PowerAPps will make it all for you. And you can customize it as you need.

Check to make sure you have in the proper "Update" on the card. Also, the default mode of your form should be Edit with the other items you are using. If it is creating a new item on your sharepoint list it needs to be New and instead of EditForm(frmName) it would be NewForm(frmName).
