I have been having issues trying to copy an item (a record) from a gallery in powerapps (a sharepoint list datasource) into a new list.
I have tried using the patch function, it was not successful. I also tried using power automate, but i just dont know how to go about it.
Can someone please help me, I've been stuck here for days now

Hi Johnes, can you share how your patch looks like?
There is no quick way to copy item from one list to another in PowerApps, you basically need to write your patch to create a new item into the destination list and set the properties of that item to those from the item in source list.
Something like this
Patch(DestinationList, Defaults(DestinationList),{Title : sourceItem.Title.....})

1. Connect to both SharePoint(SP) lists in Power Apps
2. If the button is outside of your gallery:
Patch(
SPConnection2,
Defaults(SPConnection2),
{
Col_In_SP_List2: Gallery.Selected.Value
}
)

3. If the button is inside your gallery (and the data you want to patch is selected in the gallery):
Patch(
SPConnection2,
Defaults(SPConnection2),
{
Col_In_SP_List2: ThisItem.Value
}
)
