Named Formulas

Hello me again,

for some reason no named formulas work for me. I just can't find anything on Google about why that is.

For example i try this: 

Email = User().Email

Error Message: The Name is invalid. "Email" is not recognized.

Help 😥

    you are writing the code on OnStart of your app not on Formula if you want to write this code in OnStart of the app you have to do something like this: Set(Email,User().Email), after that click on the 3dots than click on Run OnStart now you will get the Email and if you want to write the same code on the formula you have to click on left-hand side dropdown where you are seeing OnStart and select Formula from the dropdown now put Email=User().Email;

    The email thing was just an example but I managed it anyway because I now know that it has to be written in a form.
    Formula in "APP" --> "Formular": 

    Email = User().Email,

    I used this for my Sharpoint Table. Look like this:

    Katalog = Sharepointlist,

     

    Thanks!
