Collect

Adds rows to a collection.

What it does

Adds rows to a collection.

The job: Behavior functions that create, edit, or delete records — they run on events like a button OnSelect.

Adapt this formula from the nextM365 reference hub:

Collect(Cart, ThisItem)

How to use Collect

Start from the task, not the alphabet. If you are shaping rows for a gallery, reach for Collect alongside the other data functions in its group; if you are saving, navigating, or changing state, use it on an event such as a button OnSelect rather than in a display property. When a formula misbehaves, check for a blank value where you expected text, then confirm the behaviour against the examples in the Power Fx function reference hub.
