Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi,

I have a PowerApp which is connected to a local SQL Server through a Data Gateway. On the click of a button, I am trying to update a specific record in a table. I am trying to use the following patch function:

Patch('[dbo].[SOP10100]', First(Filter('[dbo].[SOP10100]', SOPNUMBE = "QTEST1028")), {SOPTYPE:2, DOCID:"STDORD"})

The error that I am getting is the following:

I can't figure out what I am doing wrong...the record exists in my table:

Any ideas?

Thanks for the help,

Tudor

Hi @Anonymous,

Yes the error could be reproduced from my side, only when I try to change the Primary Key value of the table.

So in your scenario, the change record part:

{SOPTYPE:2, DOCID:"STDORD"})

Is SOPTYPE or DOCID a primary key?

The Primary key defined under SQl table is acted as the row identifier, which is not allowed to change at the current time.

This should be a current limitation, I will collect this as a feedback from my side.

To workaround, please define another Primary key in the table, make sure the field that you would like to update is not configured as the primary key.

Regards,

Michael

@v-micsh-msft

You are correct, I am trying to modify one of the segments of the primary key of my table. I know this is not a good idea in general but this is just for testing.

Thanks Michael for pointing that out, I did not know that this was a current limitation.

I also have the same issue. The columns I'm updating are not PK

For me it's working for regular PowerApps, but does't work on government tenants.
