How to Patch data selection from drop box

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello community.  I have a Power app and I am trying to patch the data to a Sharepoint list.  On the app there is a dropdown called Name that is fed by another SP list.  That list is called POC List, basically a list of names. What is the code to patch the selected value to the SP list called Trouble Tickets.  The column in the list Trouble Tickets is called Analyst.

The Name dropdown properties look like this:

    Hi @KayBee2007 ,

     

    To patch the selected value from a dropdown to a SP list, you can use the 'patch' function. Here's an example based on what information you gave:

    Patch(
    'Trouble Tickets',
    Defaults('Trouble Tickets'),
    {Analyst: NameDropdown.Selected.Name});

    (Assuming your dropdown is called 'NameDropdown', and you want to patch the selected value to the 'Analyst' column in your 'Trouble Tickets' SP list) You may need to change some of the field names to accurately reflect your data if I got it wrong.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    If I answered your question, please accept my post as a solution and if you liked my response, please give it a thumbs up.

    Thanks!
