Canvas app apparently not linking correctly to data sources after being moved from one environment to another

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 98

Hello,
I am currently developing a canvas app in a development environment.

So far, everything's worked alright with the data sources being fine and the app reading their data correctly.

 

Today I exported the app, in a managed solution that includes it and its dependencies and imported it into another environment.

After running it in the new environment, the app is looking like it's only loading part of the data sources?

 

Not sure how to explain it, but the interface sections are partly filled with data and partly empty, with the various sections reading from different data sources.

 

I've already done some research into data sources and solution layers (thinking they could help) to no avail.

I've also gone and deleted all the data sources from the app in the development environment, checked connections and connection references (which are packaged in the solution as dependencies) then added the data sources again, still have the same issue.

 

All the data sources are available in both environments and all the dependencies as well.

 

I realize I probably haven't explained the issue properly on a technical level, but I don't understand what's happening for me to explain it to begin with.

Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello again,

    Pardon the delay in responding but the issue was fixed, turns out it was something specific to how our app was being developed, so I can't exactly explain the issue as it's internal.

    Thank you for your time.

    @Salim_A_M - what is the data source you're using? Dataverse? SharePoint?

    Hello Amik,

    Yes, I can confirm none of them have unmanaged layers.

    @Salim_A_M - I understand you have researched solution layers, but could you click into each component inside the Managed Solution and confirm you they do not contain any Unmanaged Layers?
