Why Power Apps Patch function doesn't work properly

Why sometimes Power Apps patch function doesn't update the records as we expect? Sometimes it throws error, sometimes it creates a new record instead of updating and sometimes it just doesn't do anything and you wonder why. In this video we examine Patch function behavior to get the answer to all those questions.

I was confused on how to properly use it and I ran into the issues you called out. Now it makes sense. Thank you for making this video.

[@craiggers3300]

Well thought out and explained. (I find your elocution and pronunciation outstanding.). Great video. Thanks.

[@violettabybina6996]

Was a coincidence! I was struggling with Patch function today and now I see your video!

[@AlirezaAliabadi]

I suggest you watch this video first. If you come to conclusion that Patch is the way to go, then troubleshoot your Patch. Most of the time UpdateIf is a much better way to modify records.

But I was successfully won the patch function with multiple updates. But I won't applied UpdateIf function. So I understand lookup is the game for baserecord.

[@fredbarnes196]

Even using the lookup function: Network error while using patch function: Conflict exists with changes on the server, please reload... and it is adding a record with an auto incrementing primary name

while patching my collection to data source(share point), getting error-Network error while using patch function.The request opeation is invalid.
How to resolve this.

[@elirdz]

What if Im patching by just passing a collection? i.e Patch(sqltable, datacol), where datacol carries the ID of the row and the field to be patched.

[@mce8183]

Can you help me solve this issue im having. when i finished and click on save....Network error when using patch function: Field "Title" is required. Does that mean i have to add a Title to my list?

[@yoginathbadadale]

Pass the value for Title field as this is mandatory in Sharepoint property or that is not required then change the setting for Title coloumn and select mandatory as No hope it will help you

[@wildchangjr.8998]

I am having a weird issue. Whenever I run the patch function for the first trial when creating a new record, it doesn't work. But when I run it again for the same record, it works. Is there a way to fix this? Would Collect be more reliable?

[@jl1399]

Im using a sharepoint integration app if i try to patch the status column and also use submit form on a button it creates a situation where the two command fight for which changes to use.

[@shivanikoul4581]

I'm working on one scenario where users can fill out a form and save it as a draft. If a user fills out some data and saves it as a draft, then closes the app, the next time they open the application, the data they previously saved as a draft should be populated in the form automatically. Please help.

[@Rushdashaikh-g3l]

same happens with me, please let me known if you get to known
