Network Error in offline enabled canvas app

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 4
Hi, i have an offline enabled canvas app with the new analysis engine switched off, i get a network error when doing a simply lookup to the datasources when connected to the internet. For example if i want to refresh a variable I am using as the items property of a form after the form is submit, the following will cause a network error - Set(varSelectedRecord, Lookup(DataSource, ID = varSelectedRecord.ID)
 
Has anyone come across this, makes working with offline mode near impossible.

    Is the Data Source you are using Dataverse and has that particular table been enabled for Offline access?  Are you sure the network is connected when you do the lookup?

    @Pstork1 thanks for getting back to me. Yes the data source is data verse, all tables are enabled for offline mode, i am doing a number of clear collects when loading the app from the same tables without any issues and have tested removing this lookup form the forms and replacing with a variable and i don't get the error. Issue is here then then the record is out of data after updating. Yes i have tested both connected and dis-connected from the internet. I have also add back in the logic but on form success to refresh the variable and again that causes the error.

    Is the Table you are doing the Lookup on set for Offline support?  And did you include it in the Offline Profile? Or are you using the Auto generated Profile?

    @Pstork1 yes the table I'm doing the lookup on is the main data source for the app which i am doing the lookup to in order to refresh the variable that is being used as the source of forms item property, that seems to cause an issue even though when i navigate back to the previous screen the collection is refreshed from the same data source without any issues. I've used both a custom and auto-generated profile but both with the same result. Will think of a work around
