How do I check if the user is in a multi person sharePoint column?

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by Spawn10 301
I have a Person column in my SharePoint list (called myColumn) that allows for multiple users. I have a button on my Power apps form that I want to use to display a message, depending on if the login user is in this multi person column or not.
For example, if the user is already in myColumn, I want the button to say "You are already on the list". If they are not in myColumn, then they should see "Go ahead and reserve a spot". In the visible property of the button, I am doing something like this. 
If(IsEmpty(Filter('myList', User().Email in myColumn.Email)), button.text="You are already on the list", butoon.text="Go ahead and reserve a spot")
 
How do I get this to do what i want?

    Hi  Spawn10 ,
    The Text of your Button
    If(
   !IsBlank(
      LookUp(
         'myList', 
         User().Email in myColumn.Email
      )
   ),
   "You are already on the list", 
   "Go ahead and reserve a spot"
)
    Note that this is not Delegable and you cannot make it so.
