Hi , I have a canvas form in which I have a toggle control ,whenever the toggle is clicked or it’s value is true , I have to set date picker field as current date and that date field is view only field.

And I have used submitform function on Submit Button.

Basically filling all data card value and accepting term and condition (via toggle control) and Submitting the form data into SP list .

I have set defaultdate property of date picker as

If(DataCardValueAgree.Value,vardate,Parent.Default) where vardate is local variable, value set to Now(),
But now all my records shows today date and not the actual date and sharepoint list has correct dates.

Hi @apeawakening,

You can set your Toggle control OnCheck property to be:
Set(setDate, Today())

On the Date picker control on the DisplayMode property:
If(Toggle1.Value = true, DisplayMode.View, DisplayMode.Edit)

And for the DefaultDate property of the Date picker:
setDate

Please tick Accept as solution if the answer is useful.
Thanks,
@AARON_C

Okay. How are you previewing previous records? Are you selecting records from a gallery and displaying that record in a form?
