Request form - automatically upload information in sharepoint list

Hi,

 

First time using powerapps, and not even close to being a developer, so I apologize in advance 😅

 

I've been trying to develop an APP for employees to be able to register a book when they take it from the office (kind of like a virtual library for a company). I'm probably doing it wrong, but to make a "request form" (where they have to register their name, office location, book title, and pick-up date) I added an EditForm and linked it to a SharePoint List that I've created.

 

The problem is, when I try to test the page and submit a form, the information isn't uploading to the SP List. The only thing happening is the "submit" button takes me to the next page that lets people know the form was successfully submitted (which isn't true at this point 😂).

 

Can you please help me understand what I'm doing wrong? (silently praying you don't say "that makes no sense" 😭)

 

Also, how do I auto-clean the text boxes after a submission?

 

Thanks 🙂

    If you are using a form then the Submit button should also include a SubmitForm(formname);

    Hi,

    Thank you for the tip! I've added the 'SubmitForm' formula and it worked! But now I'm having difficulty on adding the 'Navigate' as well...

     

    Like I said, first time using powerapps, and not even close to being a developer 😕

     

    Thanks again and happy new year!

    use the statement seperator that is designated for your region.  Here in the US its a ;

    SubmitForm(formname);Navigate(screenname, fade)
