I am customising a SharePoint list form. Creating the form is easy enough directly from the integration bit of the list, its just i have about 40 fields so i am adding collapsible containers for the specific categories. The only problem is, when i move the field to a container it doesn't transfer the data added to the field into the column.

    Integrating a customised form in a SharePoint list

    Issue: If a field is moved into a container but isn't properly linked to the SharePoint data source, Power Apps won't update it in SharePoint.
    Fix: Ensure each field has the correct Default and Update properties in the form control.

    ✅ Solution:

    1. Go to the DatacardValue of each field inside the container.
    2. Check the Default property:
      ThisItem.[ColumnName]
    3. Ensure that the Datacard Update Property is set correctly:
      DataCardValue1.Text
      • For numeric fields, use: Value(DataCardValue1.Text).
      • For choice fields, use: DataCardValue1.Selected.Value.
      • For multi-choice fields, use: Concat(DataCardValue1.SelectedItems, Value, ", ").

    2️⃣ Data Cards Not Inside the SharePoint Form

    Issue: If you move fields into a collapsible container outside the Form control, they won’t submit to SharePoint.
    Fix: Ensure that all fields remain inside the Edit Form
