I renamed a database and published etc, but my apps / forms are still referring to it as it's old name.

I figured this could simply be the usual, leave it sit for a while and see if it fixes itself issue.

 

Example.

 

Dataverse table was named DefaultTable

I have since renamed to tblDefault

I also published said table.

All version of my app are still stating the data source is 'DefaultTable' and when I look for the 'tblDefault' table It is now found, when creating apps.

 

Any advice is appreciated

Thank you

    Hi @RandomDept ,

     

    Refresh you Table in the App.

    If that doesn't work, remove and re-add to the App. 

    Once this is done, try to change the table name in 1 instance of the code wherever its hardcoded. 

    You should be seeing all the changes required in the App.

     

    Hope this helps

    Thank you,

     

    As mentioned, only worked by removing and re-adding, sadly refresh didn't help.

    Back to manually updating all my links 🙂
