User Defined Functions : Play issue

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

Hello,

 

I have written a function in App.Formulas that works correctly in the edit mode of the app.
However, I noticed that since I enabled "User-Defined Functions" in the settings, the application publishing does not update correctly in play mode.
When I launch the application in play mode, it indicates that there is an update:

"A new version of this app is coming. We'll let you know when it's available."

But it never actually updates.

 

The issue is resolved when I disable this feature.

Do you know any solutions to resolve these issues?

 

Thank you!

    Hello, thank you for your response.

    My issue is specifically that I am trying to use this functionality, but I cannot publish my application in play mode after enabling it.
    Therefore, there is no point in activating this feature unless it can be used in play mode.

    Hi @PeterCBell_au ,

    Can you please share how you have declared UDF? I will try to repro the issue on my end that way.

    udfMeetingBaseColour(UnitName: Text,isImportant:Boolean) :Color=If(isImportant,Color.Yellow, If(  IsBlank(First(Filter(UnitColours,ColUnit=UnitName))),Color.NavajoWhite,  First(Filter(UnitColours,ColUnit=UnitName)).fCol ))
     
    The UDF is using a collection 'UnitColours' to perform the calculation. Is this the problem?
     
    The collection has some logic to create the collection from a text string stored in a sharepoint table. I doubt that matters, just create a collection with the same record structure to test it at your end.
    ClearCollect(UnitColours,{ColUnit:"",fCol:Color.Black});Clear(UnitColours);
    //Extract the key:colour values
    ForAll( ForAll(Split(gblMeetingColours,VertBar), {Result: ThisRecord.Value}),
    If(!IsBlank(TrimEnds(Result)),
        Collect(UnitColours,
        {ColUnit:TrimEnds(First(ForAll(Split(Result,","), {Result: ThisRecord.Value})).Result) , fCol:ColorValue(TrimEnds(Last(ForAll(Split(Result,","), {Result: ThisRecord.Value})).Result))}
        )
        )
    );
