User getting ""Error when trying to retrieve data from the network" error, but this error doesn't show up for the owner of the app.

I am working on a power app where users can submit a request, via edit form. In my testing, users complain about this error when they try to submit a request but when I try to submit a request, it works. I have a lookup field in the form that links to a different table, I don't know if this is causing the error.

Thanks

    I am having the same issue - but this error shows up for the owner as well. I feel that this is a MS powerapps bug that they need to fix. But weirdly this error does not show on all of my powerapps applications which utilizes sharepoint . Also just to put a date on this bug - seems to have started happening around 8am CT 6/27/2023

    @Anonymous - access to ALL SharePoint lists the app uses?

    @Anonymous - are you using SharePoint lists as a data source? Do the users have the necessary permissions to those lists? (Contribute level).
