Hi !

I'm making an app and if a user completes a form, it creates a list in sharepoint. is it possible to have the ID generated based upon completion of the form that is in sequence or next available.  I tried this... Sequence function - Power Platform | Microsoft Learn but there need guidance on what cell does it go to? can it be applied to a datacard? Any steps will be appreciated.  Thanks

    Are you asking if a separate unique ID can be generated as well as the SharePoint list item ID?

    Yes.  For example, the item id is 1 for an item.  can powerapps, make an unique id B1...B2...B3 after the form is completed.  Then it will system generate the next one available.
