Issue with special character and dropdowns

Hello,

I got an issue with dropdown controls in PowerApps for Teams.

I have the infamous "Error loading control" and have discover it came from special caracters in the dropdown values.

While "Équipe" is written with a "É" I got the error but if I write "Equipe" I don't have it.

 

Is there any tips to fix it or do I have to write values with typos because Power Apps is not international friendly?

 

Thanks,

Étienne

 

Edit: I fixed the problem by converting the "Option Set Value" to text. Weirdly when it is an Option Set I got the error, but when it is converted to text, the Special Character isn't an issue anymore
