I have a SharePoint list with a Choice field. I am connecting to this in a PowerApp via the Form control. Instead of displaying the Choice values it is initially displaying Item 1, Item 2 etc. up to Item 15 (there's only 3 choice values). It then blanks out all these values and shows no values at all. In all our other PowerApps we've developed this has worked fine, with the DisplayFields and SearchFields properties displaying as ["Value"]. However, in new forms these now seem to be showing as ["Value1"] and it doesn't seem to matter if the 1 is removed, the choice values never appear (see attached image). New forms, new lists have been tried and tested but the error persists. This is stopping all new developments from proceeding. Any help greatly appreciated.
I have the same issue, only started happening once I started using power apps to customize the list. I am not sure how to fix it.
After I opened a ticket with MS they were able to find a reference to this issue where, if you review the DataCardValue properties of the affected Choice DataCard, you may find the Default value is null. Enter ThisItem.[ChoiceFieldName] and this should bring the options back. The cause is unclear but we guessed it maybe due to our template app being somehow corrupted and stripping out the Default value for Choice fields when inserting the Form control. We will be creating a new template for our apps to avoid this, which is frustrating, as a quick test in a blank canvas app shows the error does not reoccur.

Hi @StretchFredrik the Items property is set to this format, as all our form developments tend to be i.e. Choices([@TEST].TEST_Choice)
Hello,
Put the items property to something similar to this image:
