Forms and Galleries are resetting after Patch, SubmitForm

Posted on by srubio24

After the update to version PowerApps 3.18114.25, my forms/galleries are resetting after the first patch/submitform.

The datacard values are set to reset: false.

For fields in galleries, the patch to the first list goes through with the updated text but the second list is patched in with the default value for that field of the gallery.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi @srubio24,

We will discuss your issue separately.

Firstly, about the SubmitForm function. After you submit the form, will the app navigate to another screen or stay with the same screen? You could check about this in the OnSuccess property of the Form control. By resetting in this part, did you mean that the Form control would show the record that just submitted with newly updated data?

Secondly, about the Patch, I guess that you are use a button control to patch the record from within the screen that holds the Gallery control. If so, did you mean that after selecting the button, the Gallery control would refresh the data and show with the newest version?

Regards,

Mona

Hello @v-monli-msft,

I'm going through the issue you described in the second part of your post but I can't find a way around it.
(I have a gallery reading filtered data and after I patch the records sucessfuly through a button on select function, the gallery resets itselft and displays data from record 1 and no longer the filtered data.)

Is there a solution for this ?

This seems to have come back as soon as version 3.19012.19 came out 2 hours ago.

Okay I'm not sure if anyone else is still having this issue in 2021, but i was, and i think i figured out a solution. Works perfectly for me, and hopefully this post helps others.....

So in the gallery that keeps resetting to no selected items after a successful Patch(), i set the onselect property of all items in the gallery to:
Select(Parent);Set(GallerySelected,ThisItem.uniqueIdentifier)

THEN.... i set the Default property of the Gallery to:
LookUp(DataSource,GallerySelected=uniqueIdentifier,ThisRecord)

Final Step.... the button that is triggering the Patch, at the VERY end of that formula, do this:
Patch(blah blah blah);Reset(Gallery)

Like i said, this is an old issue, but if anyone else experiences it, this workaround works like a charm 🙂 Happy Apping!
