Undo Button/ Ctrl Z - Sometimes Not Working?

(3) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 17

Hi all,

 

Not sure if anyone else experiences this kind of thing but it feels like some sort of bug or glitch in powerapps. Sometimes my "Ctrl Z" or the "Undo Button" stops working in the powerapps web app. Any Idea on how to stop this? It usually comes back after I refresh the page but can get frustrating if I accidentally delete something or move something and cannot undo it.

 

Thanks for your help!

    Do both the button and the keyboard shortcut stop working?

    Hi @AlexFDS,

    Do you meant that your Undo stops working?

     

    Actually, it is a known issue for Power Apps.

    So far the only solution from our support team and users' feedback, is to close your current Power Apps edit screen and re-open it.

    Here is some tips for you:

    1. Constantly save your work. DO NOT got hours, or even 10/15mins+ without hitting CTRL+S to save your work. Just keep doing it constantly
    2. Do a quick check. Insert a random button or label on the screen and see if you can undo it. If you cant undo it, close the tab ASAP and re-open the app, that should bring back most of your lost work before auto save kicks in and saves your work in the current bad state.
    3. If you have been constantly saving, you should be able to see revisions and check previous revisions to get back lost work.

    Hope it could help you at some degree.

    @v-qiaqi-msft I think it is a helpful advice, I do it similar to this in general just in case and when I do that I don't have any problem.
