Hi,

I'm looking for a logic to return specific text and ID no. in one of my Title column

In my SharePoint list I have a Title column, ID and few other columns. When ever a new item is created in PowerApps form I want to return specific text with the ID No.

For example - when new item is created, show as below:

Project Created - 1

Same should also get updated to SharePoint list

I can do this using Power Automate to run a flow when an Item is created, but I want to achieve this within the Power App form

@Prem4253 Hi,

Not sure if I get your point.

what you want is overwrite a column after creation ?

if so,

1. Submit the for as usual : SubmitForm(form1) // for example.

2. On Successs, property:

Patch(
mylist, // your list
form1.LastSubmit,
{Title: "Project Created - " & form1.LastSubmit.ID} // for example you want to overwrite the Title column.
)

@Prem4253,

For Patch the colum

Set(

lastSubID,

Patch(

Requests,

If(

RequestForm.Mode = 1,

Defaults(DataSource),

LookUp(

DataSource,

ID = ThisItem.ID

)

),

{

Column:{Value:(DataCardValue.Selected.Value)},

}

).ID

);

Set(varTitleID, Lookup(DataSource,ID=lastSubID).Title&" -" & lastSubID);

I created new column to maintain this value (Title & ID).

Patch the column with this varTitleID.

Patch(

DataSource,

LookUp(

DataSource,

ID = lastSubID

),

{

TitleID:varTitleID,

}

)

Hope this helps!

In the form you can add the column to datacard and display parent.default.
