Hi @Anonymous,

Do you want to submit data from PowerApps to SharePoint list and send a push notification once the data are saved in the list?

First, please create an app based on SharePoint list. The following doc on creating an app from SharePoint list would be helpful:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/app-from-sharepoint

Second, create a flow to send a push notification with the SharePoint trigger When an item is created.

Another way to achieve it is to trigger the flow by a PowerApps button. It could be configured likes below.

Then you need to add the flow on a button in PowerApps. Once the PowerApps button is clicked, create an item in SharePoint list, send out a push notification.

This doc on start a flow in a canvas app for your reference:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/using-logic-flows

Please let me know if you need more help.

Best regards,

Mabel
