Hi @lbolin ,

If you’ve an existing Power Apps app and want the form fields and data to show up in a SharePoint list, you can follow these steps:

Edit the Existing Power App:

Open your existing Power App in the Power Apps Studio.

Navigate to the screen where you want to display the form fields.

Add SharePoint List Fields:

Add the relevant SharePoint list fields to your form.

You can do this by dragging and dropping the fields from the Data Sources pane onto your form.

Arrange the fields as needed and customize their appearance.

Bind Form Fields to SharePoint List Data:

For each form field, set its DataCardValue property to the corresponding SharePoint list field.

This binds the form field to the actual data in the SharePoint list.

Test the Form:

Preview your app and test the form by entering sample data.

Verify that the form fields display the correct data from the SharePoint list.

Publish the Updated App:

Save your changes and publish the updated app.

Share the app with relevant users or embed it in a SharePoint page.

Customize the ‘New Item’ Text (Optional):

By default, the form will show “New Item” as the title.

To change this, you can customize the Title property of the form or add a label with a more meaningful title.

Remember that you can customize the form further by adding features like validation rules, error messages, and additional controls.

Of course you can.
Start by opening the data section (the cylinder icon on the left)
click to add a new connection
Search and choose SharePoint and sign in.
then in the right side you select the SharePoint site where you created your list
and then you select the list.
now you can connect your fields to the SharePoint List Columns, by using the Patch function in the OnSelect of a Save button.

something like this:
Patch(List1,Defaults(List1),{column1:TextInput1.Text,column2:TextInout2.Text})
