Bug with deep linking

Posted on by 1,625

Hi,

Since yesterday I have noticed one of my production apps are no longer functioning correctly. When I navigate to the the app it takes a user to the ViewUserScreen, rather than taking the user to UserScreen.  

This is my code on App OnStart:

 

Set(vID, Value(Param("StM")));
If(vID <> 0,Set(vRecord, LookUp(ListName,ID = vID));Navigate(ViewGuideScreen));

This has been working for months, where it would only navigate the user if the user was clicking on a link in an email taking them to a previously submitted record.

If I comment out the 2nd line in the above function, by default the user is taken to UserScreen,  but that then means my deep linking will not function.

I have checked on other productions apps with the same code, and they are functioning correctly.

I have also checked the UserScreen is the first screen in my app, StartScreen has no code on it.

 

Any ideas why this has stopped working, other than MS trying to tell me to stop using App OnStart (I do have the Enable Navigate function in App.OnStart enabled under Retired features)?

 

Thanks

    Hi @Lefty ,

    Do you have this turned on ?

    Also there is a known bug in the latest release - although I have not seen this error before.

    Hi @WarrenBelz 

     

    I do indeed have that enabled, that was what I referred to in my question earlier, but maybe did not articulate it properly.

     

    How do I check my version?

     

    Worst part of this is I do not have any errors, it just isn't functioning the way it is supposed to

    Hi @Lefty ,

    Bug is in Version 3.21123.25. 

    Go to the Power Apps list, click on the "three dots" and select Versions. The one that says "Live" (generally at the top) will show the Authoring Version under the Power Apps Release column.

    @WarrenBelz 

    Ah yes, used this 100s of times, without every paying any attention to the Power Apps release column

    Yes it's showing 3.21123.25

     

    I have gone through most of the apps, and it appears any which are on the above version do have the same behavior issues, the others I published a month or earlier, and they are functioning correctly.

     

    Would you know what I need to do to log this with MS, if that is what I need to do, as it appears to be a bug?
