Changing data types in SharePoint

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 35

I had my patch working fine, but when I setup the SharePoint list I stupidly set the field for "Minutes"  to "Single Line of Text" instead of "Number" which makes it so in PowerBI I can only count that data instead of Sum it. Now the patch for that column won't  save to the SharePoint list. I know its just a stupid fix but I am very new to Power Apps and have no programming experience.

The line in my patch is:

TimeSpent: Value(TxtMin.Text) "TimeSpent" is the SharePoint TxtMin is the input I am trying to save
