Error when trying to retrieve data from the network only for a particular user

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 151

I have a PowerApp built based on a SharePoint list. I get the error message:

Error when trying to retrieve data from the network : MY_LIST_NAME failed: Could not find field. clientRequestId: GUID_ABC serviceRequestId: GUID_ABC

 

Note that I only get this error for just one particular user. I've made sure that user account has edit access to the SharePoint list and the site its in.

 

I looked into this issue, and found this thread. Tried some of the potential solutions such as clearing the cache on that users PC but didn't help. But I can't imagine how other solutions might help, since only one user gets the issue. I've verified with multiple other user accounts that they don't get have this issue.

 

Any insights?

    Might try removing and readding the source under your datasource menu. Sometimes that randomly fixes the weirdest things related to datasources, and this definitely qualifies as weird lol

    I have the same issue in my canvas app.

     

    Some users received "Error when trying to retrieve data from the network". Basically what the app is trying to do is ClearCollect data from a Sharepoint list.

     

    I have tried removing, closing the app and then readding the source, but issue persists.

    I am also facing the same issue, some people are able to access the application where as some cannot (they are getting "Error when trying to retrieve data over internet"). Does anyone know what's the problem/how to resolve it.

    Within my company users started to get the same issue, does anyone know the solution? My App is in a managed environment so I can't directly remove and add data sources. Before everything was working fine.
