    Hi, a couple of things come to mind:

     

    1. Verify you created the dataverse table in the same environment as your app.

    2. Ensure you have at least READ permissions for the table that's been created.

     

    If you’re the creator but lack full permissions, ensure you have a role that includes the necessary access to tables, such as System Administrator or Maker role.

    Hello,
     
    you are right it has something to do with environments.
     
    Please explain me how this goes.
     
    While I find myself in make.powerapps.com, I can click on environments nad have this choice:
     
    *Creating apps using Dataverse:
    Environment of George Mourek -- here I have in Tables menu stored all of my dataverse tables my app is currently using
    Testing -- this I am not using at all
    *Other environments:
    Avida Corporation Environment -- here I have an app I am currently developing
     
    No trouble with connecting the data from other environment during the develompent so far tho.
    How can this be I only realize that as of now? And what is best to do with that, can I continue in the same way somehow?
     
    Many thanks, George

    Typically, your app and table would be in the same environment. 
     
    If your app is the the "Avida Corporation Environment" and the table that you created is in "Environment of George Mourek", that would be the reason why you're unable to find the table in your app.
     
    I would recommend that you create your app in the "Environment of George Mourek" environment and you should then have no problem finding and connecting to the tables.

    Hello and thank you, of course this is wrong how it is. But for now I managed to find the option -change environment- right when adding a data source to the application. I didnt noticed it before and it didnt come to my mind I should look at what is where.
