Dear PApps Users,
I have a list where I store "mentors" in my company and users can find someone and ask in a specific topic, if they're looking for solution. Unfortunately I don't have "PowerApp" mentor - that's why I'm here 😉
So basically my app is showing a "cards" of experts based on SharePoint list where column named "Expert Name" (Person) has name of "mentor".
Cards have 4 icons. I would like to count, how many times any icon was clicked in every "Expert Name". Sum of 4 clicks on icon per record.
I wanted to create a column Number and add "+1" if anyone in the company clicks on one of 4 icons on Expert Name card, but I don't know how to achieve that.
Is it possible? How to do that?
Dear @JaguarMonkey ,
Thanks for help. I got a problem, because I wrote probably bad Patch function:
Share
Report
All responses (
Answers (
Launch($"https://contoso.sharepoint.com/Ask%20a%20Champ%20%20Documents/{(ThisItem.'Expert Name').DisplayName}") &&
Patch
('Ask a Champ';
LookUp('Ask a Champ'; 'Expert Name'.DisplayName = (ThisItem.'Expert Name').DisplayName);
{ Count: Count+1})
Basically my list has Expert Name column (people) and I have Count column (number).
The error is (in "Count+1" at the end): Element Count is not recognized.
And one important thing. How can I merge this Launch and Patch function, because it's also not working, when I try Launch(...) && Patch(...)
?

I think you can do this by adding a second command to the OnSelect property of the icon (I assume there is already one command associated)
Regardless, you can have a field that stores clicks and update it using the Patch function. I do that to count votes for new features in one of the development courses I teach.
There are a couple of ways to do this.
If you want to know who clicked on something, this Patch function creates individual records
Patch(
DataSource,
Defaults(DataSource),
{IdeaID: ThisItem.ID,
Voter: User().Email
}
)
If you want to just update the current status, this should work
Patch( DataSource,
LookUp( DataSource, Flavor = "Chocolate" ), { Quantity: Quantity+1} )
