Bug after deleting a table in Dataverse

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 57

I have created and then deleted a table in power apps, but it has not been fully deleted and I cannot fully delete it nor use the same primary key. I've attached some pics to show the bug. There was no error message before or after deletion, but there is a still a line for the table in Tables where all the entities are shown. It has a blank title, and is first on the list, however it still has information for Name, Type, Managed, Customizable and Tags. I can open the interface to edit the table, but if I try to make any changes or delete it, there is an error message saying "Could not find an entity with specified entity logicalname: crc36_farminformation".

 

I have refreshed the page and cleared the cache with no change. I have logged in an a friend's computer and have still seen the half deleted table. If anyone has any advice or can point me towards reporting this bug officially, please let me know. When I followed 'Report a bug' on Power Apps Help, I was redirected here. Screenshot 2024-01-16 153115.pngScreenshot 2024-01-16 153204.pngScreenshot 2024-01-16 153237.pngScreenshot 2024-01-16 153328.png

    Hi @Nina131 

    How long has this persisted?  I would suggest waiting a few hours if it is very recent.  Sometimes Microsoft processes are delayed, I have seen this when I create tables and then try to add a lookup to that table in another but it is not yet created fully so it errors, maybe this is the same situation.  

     

    If persists I would open a case with Microsoft within your specific environment.

     

    Another thing I would try is to create another table, delete it and see if it clears that one and the orphan one...

    Hi Drew, thanks for your reply. It was pretty recent (3 hours ago) and still going. Although I am now able to use the primary key again without an error saying it exists already, so hoping it will fix with time. Thanks for the suggestion of deleting another table, unfortunately did not clear it away. I'll open a case if it persists.

    It appears to have fixed itself, 2 days later. I am still sometimes getting error messages if I use the same primary kay name, but I simply update the column name without changing it, and then the error stops.
