    Easy fix: You need to replace the double quotes (") with either single quotes (') or remove them completely.

    Power Apps interprets everything enclosed in double quotes as a string and not as an object or column.

     

    If this solved your problem, please mark it as Solved to help others find the solution faster.

    Hi @SN-06010449-0
     
    DBO_DV is correct. To add to this, the cause of this was a change in the way that the Search function worked. In the past, it was necessary to pass the logical name in quotes.
     
    You can now just pass StudentFullName, rather than "pu_studentfullname"
     
    Search(Filter(Loans, 'Loans (Views)'.'Current Loans'), txtSearch.Text,StudentFullName)
