Canvas app is showing unknown or unsupported function in namespace error

Hi all,

 

Recently I edited my Canvas app after a while and was surprised to see repeated errors in App checker.

One of the errors is saying my function is unknown or unsupported function in namespace.

Another error is saying my collection is not recognized.

These errors are in component libraries. App scope is already enabled.

Never had this issue before, so suspecting it is due to latest authoring version that caused my app to break.

 

My last working authoring version is 3.23055.16

    I'm able to reproduce the same issue in a new canvas app.

    Steps:

    1. create new app or use existing app

    2. create new component

    3. add a main property as function type

    4. add a secondary property as function type (to be called by main prop)

    do whatever logic in the secondary property and call it from main property. It will throw an error "your <secondary function> is unknown or unsupported in namespace <component name>".

    Switching the function type of main property to action type would sometimes solve the issue, but it is not reliable per my testing.

    This issue also causes another error when I reference a collection, the error says that my collection is not recognized, even app scope is enabled.
