Errors when submitting a form on canvas app

Hey guys! I'm building a Canvas App connected to a SharePoint list.

In one specific section, submitting the form works (it writes to SharePoint and triggers all the Power Automate flows as expected) but it throws an error on the app side. Everything functions, but I hate leaving a known error in a final build!

I read online that it might be a SharePoint permissions issue, but all app users already have the necessary access. and I have done a three-way check (environment, SharePoint, and even Power Automate) to see if there is the answer.

Has anyone run into this before or know how to fix it?

(sorry for the blury pic)

Downgrade from dataverse to sharepoint lists: is it worth it?

Hey everyone!

​I’m currently an intern and I am completely losing my mind over a client situation. I need some serious advice, or at the very least, a sanity check.

​For the last 4 months, I have been developing a comprehensive database and application solution. Everything (the relational data models, the documentation, the flowcharts, and the test scripts) was built entirely around Microsoft Dataverse so they could have a proper, functioning relational database infrastructure as they just managed all their data only through emails somehow (mind you, we are talking about a big company).

​Suddenly, out of nowhere, the client hits us with a bombshell: They refuse to pay the $20 premium license for Dataverse.

Because of a complete lack of budget planning or management checking before development started, the client is now telling me we might have to migrate the whole thing to SharePoint lists to bypass the premium connector wall.

​This absolutely guts the application. It leaves huge chunks of the solution entirely useless as there was a model driven app specially for data moderation, breaks the data relationships, and means all the testing documentation I spent weeks writing is now garbage. I will literally have to redo a lot of stuff from scratch because they want to use SharePoint as a makeshift database.

Now, I have already embedded the new SharePoint lists to the canvas app and changed the automations to these new settings as soon as I was told, however is this really the best I can do? Just ditch the model driven app for administrators and let them mod on SharePoint? I feel like this is a waste of time and resources, plus I don't really know how secure it is to keep all of this information in a place like that. Have some of y'all gone through this? How hard was it? Is it possible to embed lists on model driven apps without dataverse use? I need a bunch of advice on this lol, thanks for reading.

Problem importing unmanaged app on different environment

Hi! I'm a relatively new Power Apps user. Lately, I've been working on a solution that needs to be unmanaged so we can give the clients full editing access once the development process is done on our end. Everything was going fine in one of the test environments provided by the client company. However, when it came to installing the app on the project manager's PC, we ran into a bunch of issues.

We thought we could connect the test env to the new definitive env using a direct pipeline, but something failed there because it exported through the pipeline as a MANAGED solution (it was probably a human error, but I don't really know, so yeah).

There is no data in there at the moment, and I'd honestly prefer to just deploy it locally. Should I just delete that production env and create a new one to make it work normally? What can I do in general? lol
