Contact form Account dropdown only shows Contact records

This is the same question as this archived Powerapps Portals question by @maryha which was never resolved:

https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Power-Apps-Portals/Power-Apps-Portal-Contact-Form-Account-Lookup-only-shows-Contact/td-p/1498293

 

In power pages management -> Contacts, when I click the drop down form for the Account Name all I see are Contact records. I'm not able to assign an account to a contact.

 

This seems like a broken connection for this field, it should be showing account records, not contact records.

    Add the "Account" table to the App, and then Publish.

    • Edit the App
    • Data (left hand menu)
    • Find the Account Table, on the 3 elipses select Add to app
    • Publish the App

    I followed those steps and that seems to have broken something. Now in the editor as well as when accessing the app directly I get:

    HTTP Error 400. The size of the request headers is too long.

    Did you edit the Power Pages Management App??? (and not the Site editor/designer)

    Just adding a Table to any App should not generally give you any errors.

    The error has gone away now without changing anything.

     

    That worked, thank you!
