Hi @Anonymous :

Could you tell me:

Are you using a button in the canvas app to submit records in from control?

What is the from control's DefaultMode property?

What is the button's OnSelect property?

Do you have "write" permission to this SharePoint List?

First of all,please check the from control's DefaultMode property and set it to

FormMode.New

or

FormMode.Edit

Then,test the submit button again.

Secondly,If the problem persists, please check your permissions to the data source.

Add a label control and set it's Item property to:

DataSourceInfo(YourSPlist,DataSourceInfo.EditPermission)

If it is "false", it means you don't have edit permission for the data source.

In addition,If you need further help, could you describe your app and requirements in detail?

Best Regards,

Bof

Hi @v-bofeng-msft . Thanks for the respond.

i have 3 button in my form. which submit, edit, update.

submit
Onselect Property:
if(formname.DisplayMode = Edit, submitForm(formname); viewForm(formname))

edit
Onselect Property: editForm(FormName)
Visible Property: If(formname.DisplayMode = View, true)

update
Onselect Property:
if(formname.DisplayMode = Edit, Update(datasource), {record})

it is because of these buttons ?

Hi @Anonymous :

Did you get an error after clicking the "submit" button ("the form you are trying to submit is in read only view mode. only editable form can be submitted")?

The "submit" button and the "edit" button look fine (except for some functions that have capitalization issues).

I'm not sure what the function of the "update" button is? But I think it should not affect the function of submitting the form.

Could you try to create a new edit from, and then use SubmitForm (formname) to try to submit the form?

Best Regards,

Hi @Anonymous :

Really weird,Maybe you can try to convert the form to edit mode before submitting Form_Labeller_SP1.

Please try this code:

If(
……&& Form_Labeller_SP1.DisplayMode=Edit &&……,
SubmitForm(Form1);
SubmitForm(Form2);
EditForm(Form_Labeller_SP1);
SubmitForm(Form_Labeller_SP1);
UpdateIf(……)
)

In addition, you can also try to recreate Form_Labeller_SP1.

Best Regards,
