Auto save when switched from offline to online

Posted on by RaviTD

Hello,

I have designed an app which contains multiple screens with multiple fields(Such as age,address and other user related info) that a user must fill. This app works in offline mode, where the user fills the data and saves the data into a collection. So if I connect to the internet the data must automatically patch to a SharePoint list. Is this scenario possible considering that I have around 10 screens and I might be at any screen at any time and I must not know that the data is being patched to the list. Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Thanks,

Yes, its possible.
Refer this code:
If(Connection.Connected, ForAll(Collection, Patch(DataSource, columnname1:collectionColumn1, columnname2:collectionColumn2 ) ) )

Thanks for your response, I have tried this but I faced an issue where I want it to work irrespective of which screen I am in so does it mean that I need to have the code in every screen.

If you want to save your all screens record in one record.
Then do one thing Patch as soon as Internet Connect and Set a variable so that you know whether it patched or not.
Then Collect that patched record ID and then update record based on that ID.
If this not your exact query then explain please.
