Loading Data of a Register in a Viewer Form

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 70

My PowerApps application is currently getting into a problem that never happened before in development. When I open a viewform of a selected item from a gallery, it gets stuck in a screen that says "getting data", and it never loads the data. On that same screen, I have a header with an icon that leads to an edit screen to modify the data of that same selected register, and the edit screen loads successfully with the data that I need, which makes no sense.

 

Problem Behavior: I have a backup version of the app from the time that it worked fine. From this point, any modification made in the viewer form of the registers, like adding cards or even adding a simple new label with no functions related to any variable, leads the application to the described problem, after being saved and published.

 

I appreciate any possible help a lot, have a nice day!

    Have you tried to use the monitor function to see if something is failing? Does it fail in both the Web App and the Windows Store PowerApps App?

     

    If you open up your main apps page like you were going to edit, click on the 3 dots next to the app name and select Monitor

    A new page should open and once loaded you should have the option to Play Published app which loads the newest published version in the web app. run it as you would normally then check the monitor tab (it's live) once you get to your issue. Does anything show up as a warning etc?

    I dont think that there is a valid reason to that behavior...

     

    My advice would be for you to update the datasource connection, maybe remove it an re-add it and see if it still gives you that error.

     

    If not, you can always try removind the form and re-adding the form.

    Appreciate these tips a lot! Unfortunately, the live monitor didn't show any issue with the execution of the app steps, not even in the main problem, I guess I'll have to refresh the connection with the data source or make a whole new form.

    UPDATE! I just discovered the reason for this error. The propriety Item of the display form must be written with MyGallery.Selected. This propriety was previously empty in my form, that's why it wasn't loading the data. Thank you guys for the support! Best regards to you all.
