Error in Choices Function ComboBox

I'm getting this error in Choices function in ComboBoxes connected to SharePoint list when I open my apps in editor.
 
Example:
 
Choices([@test_form1].status)
"Error when trying to retrieve data from network: Unknown error"
 
For almost every combobox with this problem the solution is just make a change and undo and the error disappears (like delete a ")" and then type it again).
 
Only two ComboBoxes errors doesn't disappears.
 
In the editor the ComboBox don't works and I can't set a Value in ComboBox fields options.
In the client view not all ComboBoxes are working.
 
Thanks in advance.
 
EDIT:
 
It seems that I have problems with connectors in the environment. I can't use any connectors other than Dataverse connectors.
 
Waiting for Microsoft Support reply and solution. Let see if that it's the cause of error

    The issue with connectors was solved today by itself, no more ComboBox erros.

    Thank you for your help. @Nandit Unfortunately it keeps dropping the same message and the ComboBox created after de error, can't be used.

    Hi  Expolio,
     
    Did you try to refresh the data source. It could be worth saving, publishing, closing and reopening the app. Also, you could try to replace it with a new Combobox with the same Items property.
     
    Hope this helps. 
     
    Kind regards, 
    Nandit
