    Hi @MuzaffarMahmood 

     

    For the data card which contains the combo box check and see if the defautl property is set to comboxbox.selected.value

    assuming your SP column is a text field

     

    If your sharepoint column is other data type

    then set default  value accordingly

    Hi @MuzaffarMahmood ,

    Could you tell me the field's data type that you want to use this combo box to update?

    If it is a choice column, please clarify whether it is multiple choice.

    1)If it is a text type, please set the field data card's Update: 

    Concat(combo box name.SelectedItems,Result&",")

    2)If it is a single choice, pleae set the field data card's Update: 

    {Value:combo box name.SelectedItems.Result}

    3)If it is a multiple choice, pleae set the field data card's Update: 

    RenameColumns(combo box name.SelectedItems,"Result","Value")

    Please replace combo box name with the name that you use.

     

    To sum up, different data type need different formulas to update.

    Here's a doc about how to update complex data type of sharepoint list in powerapps for your reference:

    It is solved. Actually i had choice column in SP and in powerapps i was giving it some other items that were not matching with SP choice options. I changed it to lookup column in SP now.

     

    Thanks
