Copied App not working (Power BI Integration - Sharepoint Lists as data - Should work inside Power BI)

Greetings.

I have an app, that is designed to work inside Power BI (Power App visualisation).

It is quite simple in what it does: It reads an entry in a specific sharepoint list and allows the user to edit the entry, saving the new entry. The entry is a comment on a specific report. The report is chosen from another list via dropdown or filter.

The original app works just fine.

I then made a copy of the app on the Power App platform and changed nothing. The plan is to keep the original app intact and then make changes in the copy, using that in my live mode. However, while the app can still read the data perfectly, whenever I try to save the new copy, nothing happens.

How come the code suddenly doesn't work in the copy, when it works perfectly in the original app?

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Doge.

@Dogecheck the connections to the data source on the "copy-app".
Try to remove and add them back again.

Thank you... I did that and it didn't work.

Since the app can read the data, when placed in a Power App visualization, I'm guessing that that isn't the issue.

Nothing happens, when using the save-button.

This is the code for the OnSelect action. It works flawlessly in the original app and not at all in the copy.
When I removed and reapplied the connections, I also reapplied the connection name "Power BI Commentary" in the code... But still nothing,.

If(
IsError(
Patch(
'Power BI Commentary';
If(
!IsEmpty(
Filter(
'Power BI Commentary';
Report.Value = ComboboxCanvas2.Selected.Title
)
);
LookUp(
'Power BI Commentary';
Report.Value = ComboboxCanvas2.Selected.Title
);
Defaults('Power BI Commentary')
);
{
Report: {
Id: Int(ComboboxCanvas2.Selected.Id);
Value: ComboboxCanvas2.Selected.Title
};
Comment: RichTextEditor1.HtmlText
}
)
);
