Updating a calculated Power App Field in a SharePoint list

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I am building a Power App with two SharePoint lists. One list has coaches and the other has coachees (employees that are being coached). In my power app, I have a formula that calculates the number of coachees each coach has and that is working perfectly. I need that number to update in my SharePoint list when a coach is chosen for a coachee. 

 

For example:

When coach field is updated in "Coachee List," send field update for number of coachees field to "Coach List."

 

I'm thinking maybe a Patch when the coach field is updated... I'm pretty new to Power Apps so any help with detailed instruction is appreciated!

    I did try this on the Coachee List submit form button and it didn't work. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong:

     

    SubmitForm(Form1);
    Patch('CP CPP Coach List', Filter('CP CPP Coach List', Name = ThisRecord.Coach))

    I also tried:

     

    SubmitForm(Form1);
    Patch('CP CPP Coach List','CP CPP Coach List'.Name = RecordsGallery1.Selected.Coach, CountRows(Filter('CP CPP Coachee List', Coach = 'CP CPP Coach List'.Name)))

    Also tried:

     

    SubmitForm(Form1);
    Patch('CP CPP Coach List','CP CPP Coach List'.Name = RecordsGallery1.Selected.Coach, {Coachees: DataCardValueCoachees.Text})
