Button modern control in Power Apps

A control that the user can select to interact with the app.

Description

Use the modern button to set a button to be primary or secondary. Configure the OnSelect property of a Button control to run one or more formulas when the user selects the control. As a design pattern, we recommend always placing the primary button on the left, the secondary button to the right of it. The key properties for this control are OnSelect and Text.
