Duplicate entry from Gallery on button click

[aswin12345]

I want a button to be placed in gallery onclick will duplicate the item in the list. what should be the formula that needs to be used on the Onclick in button

[eka24]

Please follow this:
2. Insert an Icon1 or button1 into YourGallery1

Set the Onselect of the Icon1 to; Select(Parent);Set(CollectionName,ThisItem) . This will create a variable of the item clicked

3. Insert a another button2 on your screen not in the gallery and put the onselect to the following Patch:
Patch('[dbo].[DataSource]',Defaults('[dbo].[ DataSource]'),
{FirstName: CollectionName. FirstName,
ReceipientName: CollectionName.ReceipientName,
FullName: CollectionName.FullName,
EntryDate: CollectionName.EntryDate})

Note; Point 2 above would create the collection1 while point 3 would insert the created items in the collection into your dataSource

Kindly change the datasource and column names to yours.

Can we make the duplication in one click i.e in one button

On the OnSelect of the button inside the gallery:

Set(CollectionName,ThisItem);

Patch('[dbo].[DataSource]',Defaults('[dbo].[ DataSource]'),
{FirstName: CollectionName. FirstName,
ReceipientName: CollectionName.ReceipientName,
FullName: CollectionName.FullName,
EntryDate: CollectionName.EntryDate})
