External Users Unable To See Content Which Is Based On SharePoint List

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 122

I have a Power App which I have shared with external users.  The users have been added as guest users to the Environment in ADD, they have the Power App shared with them and have Edit permissions to the SharePoint lists that the App is connected to.  The user can open the Power App and access the relevant pages but they cannot see Radio buttons or any other content that's data is based on the column settings of its respective SharePoint List Column. 

I can't understand why the external users have access to everything in the correct way but still cannot use the form as it is intended.

The Radio buttons are based off of the SharePoint List Column

What my external user sees when he opens the form, the choices for Additional Features are manually entered hence why they show up.  Changing all of the options to be populated manually is not a solution for me as the scope of the project states that they have to feed from the SharePoint Lists.

    Hello,

     

    Have you managed to find any solution? I have basically the same issue and I think I am going insane. Microsoft support is also doing nothing to help, I have been waiting for a response for 23 days.

    The Powerapps Form that is connected to a Sharepoint list does not load the data of fields that are directly connected to the Sharepoint field, thus making the form unusable. I kept looking and googling for any errors inside the browser console but to no avail. It sucks to have to reverse engineer peanut code and not get any kind of support. This issue also caused chaos within our organization because we used that Sharepoint list/form to track and bill our working hours, and it used to work but now it doesn't.

     

    Best regards,

    Chris

    Hi

    Go onto Guest Users in ADD and make sure that the user has an Email field filled in, that seemed to help fix the issues I was having with the specific user in Power Platform Admin Center > Environment > Settings > Users.  At one point I also removed the user and waited 30 days for them to be out of the 'Deleted Users' group and added them back in although I don't know if that actually helped.

     

    Thanks
