hi there,

How would go about sending data in a collection to a specific sharepoint list for different users? 

 

User A sends collection to 'sharepoint list A'

User B sends collection to 'sharepoint list B'

etc

    Hi @BaseHQ ,

    Some hard-coding and a Patch statement is the only way you will do this.

    Hi, 

     

    You could try using a Switch function and Patch. The switch would control which user and patch function should be executed.

     

    Example:

     

    Switch( User.value, {UserA},

    Patch( SharepointlistA, Defaults(SharepointlistA), { Phone: "1-212-555-1234" } )

    {UserB},

    Patch(SharepointlistB, Defaults(SharepointlistA), { Phone: "1-212-555-1234" } ),

    etc.
     )

     

    Reference Switch Function:

    Reference Patch function:
