Updating a record linked to a sharePoint list

Posted on by 5

Hi All,

 

I have created a power app linked to a List. Each line in the list respresents a record for a person. I want the user to be able to click on a button in Power Apps and be taken to an edit Form which only shows their record and for them to be able to update the record and submit it back to the List.

    Hi,

     

    Thanks. The button circled in the screen shot is supposed to update any new information added to the fields in the form in the associated sharepoint list. I can't seem to work out that bit

    Many thanks for the info. It helped a lot. I have spotted a small issue I hadn't though of though. Perhaps you can help?

    In the screen shot above are a number of display fileds. If thereare multiple items in a field I can currently only see 1. Without making the field bigger to contain all possible items (which could end up being verybig) is there a ways to diplay the information. Maybe a hover/display pop up? Hope that makes sense.
