vijendra kondeti,

You will have to add a gallery control and the Items property of the control will need to be set to display the items. The gallery will have to be designed to have the fields that you want in the repeating table.The items can be a collection object in PowerApps and the collection will need to be patched/saved up to the data source.

  Correct if below understanding is correct.
  
  1. Create new APP design
  2. Add a gallery control with datasource display only mode
  3. Create a Item new/edit form for adding new items/editing items
  4. Add/update the value in gallery when add event is fired
  5. On submit, save collection object in specified datasource.
  
  Questions?
  1. How to add items in to local gallery object?
  2. How to save collection object in datasource?
