BUG: Unable to change name of app

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hello, 

I'm unable to change the name of an application. 

Steps to reproduce: 

  • Visit web.powerapps.com
  • Select an app ("ABC")
  • Click "Settings"
  • Edit icon
  • Type in a new name ("XYZ")
  • Receive "JSON.." or "You already have an app named XYZ..."
  • Click Cancel
  • App name remains ABC
