Hi. I'm creating a canvas app. It has a gallery connected to SP List. one of the fields in the gallery I've made a dropdown for the user to update the status. But I don't know how to submit the change back to the list to only update that item and not create a new line. This is what I have now. I know its wrong, but I don't know what it should be.

Thanks

Patch gallery update

If you are trying to do this with a button outside of the gallery, you can do something like this.

ForAll(

RenameColumns(Gallery4.AllItems, ID, TempID),

Patch(POAP, Lookup(POAP, ID = TempID), {'POAP provider':drp_response.selected.value})

)

Thanks, but neither of those answers worked. ThisItem wasn't an option, but I typed it in anyway.

I'm wondering if I did something wrong in the gallery

Hi. The response from Keith is absolutely spot on, but if I can offer a very very slightly modified version of it? Instead of using Gallery4.Selected to identify the record you want to patch. I prefer to use ThisItem instead. ThisItem represents the current record in the gallery row, so by clicking on your drop down, you will ThisItem will be the row where your drop down is. The code would look like this :
Patch(POAP, ThisItem, {'POAP provider':drp_response.Selected.Value});

two ways to do exactly the same job...

Hey. To update a record, change the Patch() function call to reference the record which needs to be updated, like this:

Patch(POAP, Gallery4.Selected, {'POAP provider':drp_response.Selected.Value});
