    Hi

    Ensure that the data types of the fields in the Patch function match the data types of the corresponding columns in the SharePoint list. If there is a mismatch, it can result in a network error.

    Another possible cause is that a required field is missing in the Patch function. Check if there are any required fields in the SharePoint list that need to be included in the Patch function. For example, the "Title" field is often required in SharePoint lists. Ensure that all required fields are included in the Patch function.

    Thanks!

    No luck still.  I even created a textinput and tried using Title Field.  Is it because I am using a powerapps form with a document library?  I don't have any required fields

    Changed this to submitform(sharepointform1) and I'm not getting any errors so I'm going to stick with that option.
