    Hi @PPH1 

     

    You can use the Patch function to update a specific field in a record based on the selection of a drop down list.

    For example, you can try this formula: 

    Patch(
     Table1, 
     LookUp(Table1, ID = Gallery1.Selected.ID), 
     {Field1: Dropdown1.Selected.Value}
    )

     

    If you have any questions or feedback, please let me know. Have a great day! 😊
