I am stuck on how to find duplicates in my collection. In my column called 'New Column' you can see duplicates, I just need to notify the user that there are duplicates. How would I write a formula for this?
Here is a great video from Shane Young that will help PowerApps Duplicates - Avoid, highlight, and even delete - YouTube

Hi @sngledev ,
Have you solved the question? If you just would like to "notify" users of duplicates, the solution from the video scenario 3 would help, and you even don't need to apply it all. Please just try and modify the TemplateFill property of the Gallery with below formula to highlight the duplicates:
If(CountRows(Filter(colFinalsolution, 'New Column' = ThisItem.'New Column')) > 1, Yellow, White)
Best regards,
Sorry for the late response but this is the approach I took and it helped thank you.
