PowerApps, Update ThisItem value based on click of button

Question

I have the following in my browsescreen1.

This is already populated "NOT Started" in my SharePoint list, it is the default value i have inputted manually for every record.

Now on my EditForm I have a save button:

OnSelect: UpdateContext({VarProgress:"In Progress"});SubmitForm(EditForm1_1);

How can I update my NOT Started to In Progress when clicking save?

Is "Attestation Status" column editable field in Power apps form? Try setting Default property of control to VarProgress. Let me know if this works. — Ganesh Sanap - MVP

Attestation status is just text i inputted, its not a field. "Status" is an actual field in my sharepoint, but i do not have the card in my app — Jonnyboi

Try using formula like below in OnSuccess property of EditForm1_1 control:

Patch( SPListDataSourceName, EditForm1_1.LastSubmit.ID, { Status: VarProgress } )

Or use formula like below in OnSelect property of Save button control:

Patch( SPListDataSourceName, ThisItem, EditForm1_1.Updates, {Status: "In Progress"} )
