Column/Field Matching

Posted on by valerie_tsu 23

Hi all,

 

I have created columns for model driven apps, yet when I try to import data in Power Apps, I cannot find the columns/fields for matching. 

 

Any recommendation appreciated.

    How are you attempting to import data into Power Apps and what field types are you trying to map data to?

    I use different ways, user interface, Power Apps platform, or admin center. The field type is text.

    I would recommend reviewing this documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/data-platform/data-platform-import-export

    There are several options for how you can import data into your Dataverse table. Which method are you using to import and what is your data source?

    Hi Joe,

    I import by creating and modifying a file template in Excel or CSV, but I cannot find the column in the dynamics when mapping even though I have created the column previously. I have tried different ways of importing, via the user interface, power platform, and admin center. I found the way of user interface may be easier for Excel files. 

    Thanks in advance.
