[mezcalbean]

HI, Im confusing myself - how can I patch a toggle button to SharePoint, any help would be great, thanks

Patch(
    SPNAME,
    Defaults(SPNAME),
    {
        NameTitle: If(
           Toggle1.Value
            "Fred",
           "John"
        )
    }

Hi @mezcalbean ,

You are missing a comma after Toggle1.Value and a closing bracket at the end, but other than that, it should create a new record with either Fred or John in the field NameTitle in your List SPName.

You are missing a closing bracket at the end of your code.

The rest of you code looks fine, what's the error? I've made some assumptions to the error and provided a tip below that may help.

When creating new records in SP you must include any REQUIRED fields in your Patch statement. Usually, Title is REQUIRED so your code should be

Patch(
    SPNAME,
    Defaults(SPNAME),
    {
        Title: "", 

        NameTitle: If(
           Toggle1.Value
            "Fred",
           "John"
        )
    }
)

If you have any other REQUIRED fields, these must also be included. If you are just Updating a record, REQUIRED fields usually aren't needed.
