Just that the button has been clicked so the name of the button shows up on the list if it has been clicked

Hey @Ibersul ,

Use This:
Patch(TableName,Defaults(TableName),{Clicked: yes,User:User().EMail})

you can also replace it by FullName if that suits better.

@Ibersul ,

Yes TableName is the Nam of the Table in Sharepoint. and Of course you also need to create the Columns Clicked and user first in Sharepoint to be able to save to them.
For the Clicked Column you can either use a text column, there you need to put in power apps "yes" with the brackets or as Yes/No column, Then you would replace "Yes" by true (without brackets)
The User Column can be a string Column.

You should create the Columns first refresh the Table in Power apps and try again.
