Whenever I am trying to add SharePoint List in power app, it gives me below error A validation error occurred. The length of the 'displayname' attribute of the 'environmentvariabledefinition' entity exceeded the maximum allowed length of '100'.I have set on "Automatically create environment variable while adding data source" setting of power app.Also whenever I tried to modify Maxlength property of DisplayName column of "environmentvariabledefination" entity, but it is disable. How to solve this issue?
Hi @Priyashubh
This table is managed one which means we can't change the schema or definition of the table. Managed solution provided by the vendor. In this case, is Microsoft.
Display Name max length is 100 and it's diabled for all. We can't change it.

You can't change the Max Length. This is a limitation of the Environment variables solution. You can submit a product change by creating Power Apps Idea.
EnvironmentVariableDefinition table/entity reference - DislayName
Did you get this solved? I cannot add data & automatically create the environment variable due to this error message. Please advise.
