Gallery not showing new columns in collection

Hi Folks,

I have a gallery to show project details in a canvas app. The items property of the gallery is a collection. The collection is defined by calling a flow and storing the response from the flow (which is SPO list items). The collection has a project manager column, since this is a people column in SPO, it's stored as record in the collection as below.

I had to update the flow which changed the columns returned inside the project manager record. New collection looks like below for project manager record:

As you can see, EMail changed to Email and Title changed to DisplayName. The collection was updated without any issue, but the gallery is not taking the column DisplayName or Email. It only shows Department and JobTitle in suggestions.

If I give "DisplayName", it will throw the error - "Name isn't valid, "DisplayName"is not recognized". How can I solve the issue and force gallery to take new columns from collection?

Thank you.

This has happened to me before. Removing the Datasource from the gallery and re-add it usually solves the issue. Also make sure your data source for the gallery is correct. It should be colEmployeeProjectMapping.

Hi All,

Thank you for your suggestions. Turns out I was using 2 different collections with different columns as items in this gallery. I was trying to refer this exact column which has different names in both collection, once I fixed it, the column showed up.
