Users cannot edit form

I have an app made in teams where users are going to edit existing data as well as adding new data to forms. I based it off the generic autogenerated form you get from Integrate > Powerapps > create an app. This was done from sharepoint list as tab in teams.

The issue I am having is that other users than me (the designer) get errors when trying to save changes to the form entries. The initial error was "..specified column is read-only and can't be modified" but after I added

Notify(
 Concat(Errors(Posegjennomgang), Column&": "&Message),
 NotificationType.Error
 )

to the apps OnError, all I got returned was An error has occured.

I tried looking into a rabbit hole of "modified by" columns error, but can't seem to find a way of turning the use of them off.

Is there something basic I am missing or does this smell like a bug?

Could you check the permissions the users have to the datasource
This looks like a read only and not a write access

They have edit permission, but when looking closer there are some elements in the list that have limited access and some that have limited access only online (not sure about the englidh terms as it is in norwegian). However, I cannot edit these access levels, think that is only fore the O365 admins at our university.

I was thinking there might be a workaround to patch the data to a new list, but then they would have no clue as to which data they have edited.

Is there a way to figure out which elements are set to limited access?

To edit the list every user will require permissions to the list
You can contact the IT Admin to help with the grouping access

Well, seems there has been some black magic going on , cause suddenly everything works as it should. Have no idea why, but I'll mark it as solved and chalk it up as a fleeting bug.
