SharePoint list not being patched properly after new columns are added

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by kolkowskim 9

Hi,

I have an app that upon submission of a NewForm (patch function) adds new row into a sharepoint list. 

I recently had to add a few new columns to this sharepoint list. Those columns are visible in the power app and are referenced in the NewForm. 

 

However, when I submit the NewForm, only the original columns in the sharepoint list have data populated into them. The new ones I created on today remain blank. I checked if I'm submitting the right type of data, I tried renaming the columns, I tried removing them and adding them back - nothing seems to work. Has anyone encountered similar problem?

    UPDATE

    Problem turned out to be not with the Power App itself but rather with the Sharepoint list. For some reason, when naming columns in the sharepoint list such as "Picture 1" or "Pic 1" was corrupting them and prohibiting PowerApp from properly updating their values.

    Creation of new columns in format of "Picture_1" solved the issue.
