I have a powerapp tied to a SharePoint list. When I click New on the list, the new form opens populated with data from the last list entry I opened. If I refresh the page or navigate away from the list then back, it opens a blank form. I've tried adding refresh(datasource) to OnEdit of the data source and I've also disabled "User longer data cache timeout and backgroup refresh" without any success.

No change.
I figured out a fix for this. I had some code in OnSuccess. I removed that code and the problem went away.
Hi Reza, I know this is an old comment but I'm having the same issue. Users are occasionally seeing data from a previous item when clicking new on a SharePoint list form customized with PowerApps.
Are these settings you have here still a valid way to fix this issue? Thanks!
Still applies except his onsave is backwards. You don’t want to clear / reset the form before saving the data in the form. Basically you want to just put resetfrom on the form for the actions so the form always gets wiped clean on a cancel etc.
Thanks! To be clear, you're saying that OnSave should look like this?
SubmitForm(SharePointForm1);ResetForm(SharePointForm1)
Yup. On save button click you want to save the for (submit) before it resets the form.
honestly I would put the reset in the oNsuccess of the form so that if there is validation error it doesn’t reset the form. Like a missing required field I think if missing one it would try to save. Fail then reset if memory serves right.
thank you for spelling out the solution for the many that are new to these powerapps
