Patching a combo field help

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by backinbusiness 6
Hi --
 
I have an intake form set up, but having a problem with trying to update a Choice Field (Modern form). The user selects the row from the gallery, everything populates OK.
When the user clicks a "COMPLETE REQUEST" button, I want to update the "request status" field from whatever it is currently on, to "completed". How should I approach this?
 
Patch(sharepointlistname, ReqListGallery.Selected, xxxxxxxxxxx) ....I am not sure how to accomplish the above...I've tried searching and using copilot and no luck.
 
Any help/Direction? Thank you!

    Deal with this kind of thing a lot -- here's how I handle it, depending on if your choice field is a multi-select or not (guessing not)
     
    Patch(
        SharePointListName,
        ReqListGallery.Selected,
        { RequestStatusFieldName: { Value: "completed" } }
    )

    If it's multi-choice we have to use an array type syntax:
     
    Patch(
        SharePointListName,
        ReqListGallery.Selected,
        { RequestStatusFieldName: [{ Value: "completed" }] }
    )
