Trouble saving edited data cards and newly inserted elements

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 95

Hi there,

 

this little app here:

DoctorJaegerX42_1-1697111363280.png

This is a new element I created by pressing that + icon on the left, when I press the "save"-button it doesn't work and debugging gives me the error text on the right, translated: Network error while using the patch-function: The field "PowerApsId" is necessary.

 

By the way, I splitted the whole screen on the right into 3 forms, because it's easier to handle the different column counts.

 

P.S.: Whenever I edit an already existing element, a data card for example, it does nothing but switches the changes back to the original.

 

The excel sheet is on a sharepoint, maybe it has something to do with the user rights?

 

This is the error message I get, if I want to save an new element in the preview:

Translated to: 

Can't be saved. Check for errors in the form.

 

Any ideas?

    Hi @DoctorJaegerX42 

     

    This tells me that your Patch code is incorrect.

     

    I am assuming (since I don't see the patch code, so please share code when you say its broken) so we can see it.

    That the PowerApsId is the Unique ID by which a row is identified.

     

    This means your patch isn't placing the right value there and or you are mixing New mode with Edit Mode.

     


    If you like my answer, I would really appreciate if you please Mark it as Resolved, and give it a thumbs up, so it can help others

    Cheers

    Thank You

    Hi @FLMike,

     

    I actually have the problems in New Mode and in Edit Mode. New Mode doesn't let me save after I entered all the information. And gives me the error message with the patch thingie.

    Edit Mode just doesn't keep my changes and resets to the original after pressing the check-button, without any error messages.

     

    Where do I find the code that you need?
