Error when adding existing app to solution

Posted on by enriqueglopez 516 Moderator
Hello everyone,
 
I made a package of an application from Environment A. Then, I've uploaded the package to Environment B.
 
Later, I made a solution in the Environment B, and tried to add existing Power Apps that I previously added to this Environment.
 
But then, this error appears:
 
 
Anyone could help me with this? 
 
Thank you so much

    Hi,
     
    According to that, the Canvas App requires that Environment Variable
    You didn't add it (so it says).
     
    So make sure to add the dependencies of the Canvas App, before adding it.
     
    Then it will work.
     
    If you are not sure what its dependent on. Go to the app, select the Details, and look at the dependencies it HAS, not that others have on it.

    @FLMike Thank you so much for your response. 
     
    I've checked the app details looking for the dependencies, but I can only see two connections: SharePoint and Office365 users, which shouldn't cause this problem.
     
    Any idea?

    I've solved this problem by myself. 
     
    The error appeared because SharePoint Online had environment variables, all I had to do was unlink the data origins, uncheck the "convert all connections in environment variables" and link the lists again.
