blank columns after enabling New analysis engine

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 9
After enabling the new analysis engine, the 2 highlighted columns (xxxx_step and xxx_workflowapprovalgroup) are blank, (and subsequent triggered flow fails).
After switching the new engine off again, the situation reverts as shown below.
Can anyone help ?

    Hi!
    Are those fields referenced anywhere within the app from the `colSteps` collection? The new analysis engine includes improvements to only pull columns from a data source that are used within the app. If you're passing that collection directly to a flow (and not referencing the columns anywhere), you'll need to add `ShowColumns(colSteps, xxxx_step, xxx_workflowapprovalgroup)` to ensure they're part of the data pulled from the DB.

    Thanks for the response...I opened this post since MS indicate the experiemental phase for this feature is completed and in February will be switched on for all apps by default.

    hey
     
    this is simply because this new engine feature is still an experimental one and not really redy to use.
     
    do yourself a treat and dont switch it on, there are no solutions to these bugs with the engine turned on right now.
     
     
     
    if my answer helepd please mark as verified answer
