Hi,
Having an issue with a few users getting the following error message when using a Canvas app with the datavers as the datasource - "Error when trying to retrieve data from the network", has anyone encountered this or have a fix?
Hi @StevenPowerApps ,
Could you please provide more details about your App such as the formula?
This may be a temporary problem caused by the network or your dataverse connection.
Please try to delete your connection and create a new connection to test it again.
Here are some similar cases for your reference:

Issue in the end turned out to be down to access, ran a monitor session with the end user and they were missing access to an entity.
Hey there; can someone elaborate on what "missing access to an entity" means and how one give access to an entity?
I'm running into an issue where my end user is encountering the "Error when trying to retrieve data from the network"
Hi. I had the same issue. It turned out to be users missing access to a new entity added to the app. After updating their security role giving them access to the entity, the issue was resolved.
Hello Folks,
I am getting the same error while reading a collection from Dataverse.
Any hints? I have full ownership and permissions on the tables.
Hi, Curious if this got resolved, I am encountering the same error upon runtime only, no issues during design mode. I am referencing the Connection table from Dataverse. My user is a SysAdmin so it shouldn't be permissions related.
