Issues with Displaying Fields in Production Environment

Hello everyone,

I am experiencing an issue with my Power App where fields in a form are not displayed in the production environment, even though they are correctly shown in the development environment and in Play mode. Here are the details:

I am using the following filter function:

Filter(
    'Checkliste IML';
    Gruppen.Value = drpAnlage.SelectedText.Value
)

This function filters the items in the 'Checkliste IML' list based on the selected value in the "drpAnlage" dropdown. It works perfectly in the development environment and in Play mode, but the fields are not displayed in the production environment.

I have verified that users have the correct permissions to view the data. The data source is correctly connected, and there are no obvious connection issues. The filter and formula functions seem to be correct and do not contain any errors. I have cleared the browser cache and reloaded the app, but the issue persists. The development and production environments are configured identically. I have used the Live Monitor to observe the app's execution in real-time but could not identify any specific issues.

Does anyone have an idea what might be causing this problem and how I can resolve it?

Thank you in advance for your help!

There are many many reasons this is happening

Without seeing your data, the expressions etc its hard.

Either you do NOT have the .Value as the same values. Meaning if you are using ID but you inserted the data differently then the ID's won't match and it won't work.

Please share a picture of the data in Dev

Please share a picture of the data in Production

So we can identify that they are in fact the same and should filter the same way. My guess is it doesn't.

You are saying there are no code etc changes so either you are wrong, or the data is not filtering the same because the data is wrong, so dont just quickly look, really validate, what value is being used when you Select something and how that maps to the lookup table.

Also in this case, the actual Fields are missing. So this tells me you have some kind of IF statement or something to determines in they are visible or not, or the form is visible or not, or the gallery and you are NOT setting this value properly.

The screenshots actually showcase the View form connected to my catalog after I clicked on a specific dataset. The Filter function was applied to retrieve the relevant dataset in the catalog after selecting a value in another dropdown menu. You're correct; if there is any empty field in my dataset, the Visibility property should be updated to "false" using an If function. I ran multiple Live Monitor sessions and created different Edit forms, View forms, and Containers, but even in my catalog, the text in the One-line text column disappears after publishing the app.

In another comment, I read that having the Explicit column selection of SharePoint Online activated in the settings can cause similar issues because the app perceives these text values as incomplete. So, I deactivated it, and now everything is working perfectly.
