Patch then navigate

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 14

Hi folks,

 

I use Patch on the submit-button of an edit form. Right after the patch, a navigation event is supposed to happen.

Basically:

Patch(Stuff to be patched);Navigate(Screen to be navigated to)

 

This is not what happens, though. The patch works and the data is commited to my datasource, but the navigate never happens - the app just stays on the current screen (the one with the edit form).

 

Does anyone have an idea what that could be?

    Here is what I have working in my app. Not 100% sure what you have going on but maybe try adding the screen transition.

    Patch(SharePointList,CurrentSelectedItem, {

       //Stuff to patch

    });

    Navigate( Dashboard, ScreenTransition.Fade )

    I think you are missing a semicolon (need to use 2), it should be:

    Patch(what you want to patch);;Navigate(where you wanna go)

    Thanks for taking a swing at it, but the transition didn't change anything 😐

    Two semicolons. I would never have thought of that!
    Found this post on the topic, too:
