Submit the button only once and disable it

Hello,

I have a SharePoint Form that I am customizing it using Power Apps forms.

In this form, I have a "Date of Rejoining after leave" Datacard that contains a button that will launch a flow.

What I want to achieve is the following:

After the user clicks and submits the button of the item, I want the display mode of this button to be disabled. This means even if he tried to "Edit the same form/item" and he has already submitted the button of the item, then the display mode of this button should remain disabled.

So I want to allow the user to submit only once for each item, and disable this button.

What's the best way to achieve the above scenario?

Can please someone provide an example and explains in detail?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Set a Variable at the end of OnSelect of the Button:
Set(DisableButton,true)

Example: SunmitForm(FormName);Set(DisableButton,true)

Then in the DisplayMode of the button put:
If(DisableButton,DisplayMode.Disabled,DisplayMode.Edit)

To enable the button Again, you can add the Variable to the Another Button:
Set(DisableButton,false)

@eka24 this is a good way. Just would like to add something.

I am afraid that after saving and clicking edit to edit the same item second time, the variable DisableButton will be initiated and it is again able to see the button.

It would be easier to control if adding a column (ex:submit_status) to the SharePoint list to save the property as Submitted or Draft. After clicking button changing the property to Submitted and If(item.submit_status="Submitted",Set(DisableButton,true),Set(DisableButton,false)).
