Hello,

I am trying to create a button where when you select Auto-Assign the field "Assigned to" updates to the user that is logged in's email. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello @WarrenBelz The Assigned To (in a form) is a people picker column within the SP list. Within the Items property:

Choices([@'Service Recovery Group'].'Assigned To:')

Hi @joel914823

Put this in the DefaultSelectedItems
{ Claims: "i:0#.f|membership|" & Lower(User().Email), Department: "", DisplayName: User().FullName, Email: User().Email, JobTitle: "", Picture: "" }

Thank you @WarrenBelz - Is there a way this happens only when I click on the Auto-Assign button?

Hi @joel914823

Set a Variable OnSelect on the button
UpdateContext({varAssign: true})

then the DefaultSelectedItems
If( varAssign, { Claims: "i:0#.f|membership|" & Lower(User().Email), Department: "", DisplayName: User().FullName, Email: User().Email, JobTitle: "", Picture: "" }, ThisItem.'Assigned To' }

also at the end of your save code and at screen OnVisible
UpdateContext({varAssign: false})
