Powerapp form data is lost on the screen navigation.

Sandeep Kumar Parsam

Hi,

Recently as part of the project we have developed many Powerapp forms , Among them only one form is behaving weird.

After entering the data in the screen 1 navigate to next screen and come back you see data lost.

In same session, when I entered the data for second time, data is preserved however on submit data is not save to the list. Not sure exactly what's going on here.

On click here is the action performed NewForm(CreateForm1_1);Navigate(CreateScreen1_1, Fade) . same formula is used on other powerapps forms.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks Ganesan For your reply.

After further research , We have figure out that the issue is related to the PowerApps Release version.

This is specifically happening once changes are made to the previously published forms. When we looked at the version history, Previously published form were on the release 3.18074.20. Once we start editing form, PowerApp studio upgrades the form to the latest release 3.19013.14. after the form is published data lost issue is seen.
We have created a ticket MS support.

Glad We were able to restore to the previous version of the form by preserving the old PowerApp studio release by not editing the form in the studio.

Are you using with SharePoint ?

try this

Buitton1.OnSelect=SubmitForm(SharePointForm1)

SharePointForm1.OnSuccess=Navigate(Submit,ScreenTransition.Fade)
