Posted on by Jackywei_BDF 201

Dear all:

I would like to update only one column of sharepoint list and keep other required columns info no change by power canvas apps.

The columns are following:

ApprovalLevel (number)

ApprovalEmail(single line of text)  "123"

ApprovalLog(single line of  text)  "456"

ApprovalStatus(single line of text) "789"

 

I initial a global variable for ApprovalLevel by Set(ApprovalLevel, 1), then i want to incream it by Set(ApprovalLevel,ApprovalLevel +1)

now my proposal is only update ApprovalLevel and keep other required columns no any change by patch function.

How to write patch function to get this goal?

Patch(list1,............................................................................)?

Thank you very much in advance:)

    Hi @Jackywei_BDF ,

     

    Just add the column to be updated in the formula.

    Patch(list,the record which you want to update, {ApprovalLevel:ApprovalLevel} )

     

    Sample:

    Before:
