    @RodrigoSifon  You have "Sort by" in your subject, but you're asking about a Filter. Which one are you trying to do?

    Yes, it is possible to add a single or multiple filters a gallery using a button in Power Apps. I usually accomplish this using variable and setting the Items property to be filtered based on the variable. Rough overview

    1. Add a button to your screen.
    2. Set the OnSelect property of the button to update a variable. The variable should hold the condition you want to filter the gallery by. For instance, if you want to filter the gallery to only show items where a Status field is Open, you might use something like this: Set(varAscending, !varAscending). This will change varAscending from true to false, or from false to true, every time the button is clicked.
    3. Set the Items property of the gallery to a formula that applies the filter based on the variable. Continuing the example above, you might use something like this: If(varAscending, Sort(YourDataSource, YourColumn, Ascending), Sort(YourDataSource, YourColumn, Descending))
