If

Picks a result by condition.

What it does

Picks a result by condition.

The job: Branching, looping, and state — the glue between reading data and changing it.

Try this

Adapt this formula from the nextM365 reference hub:

If(Total > 100, "Big", "Small")

How to use If

Start from the task, not the alphabet. If you are shaping rows for a gallery, reach for If 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.
