Posted on by T1ago 74

Like the title says, Is it possible to change the owner of an entity from a powerapp. Currently if I patch the onwer it will ignore it. 

Patch(Quotes, Gallery1.Selected, {Name: TextInput1.Text, Owner: User()});

This will change the name of the quote but the Owner will remain the same.

Can it be done?
