I created a powerapps application, allowing to enter commands for my company. For that it records and recupts the data of an excel table store in my one drive company. The problem is that when I share the applications with my colleagues, they can not add data to the file or even view them in the screen below.
They also have an error notification when launching my app that I do not understand.
Someone know how to fix this problem of data access? and how to make sure my app works for users to share?

Hi @Anonymous,
When sharing an app, we are asked to share the data source as well so that users can run and even modify your app. Users who aren’t given the sharing permissions won’t see the data in the Excel file.
About how to share Excel data used by your app, please check it at here:

@Anonymous What is your data source? It sounds like whatever place you are using to store your data needs to be shared with people also using the app.
Your users will need to have full access to that OneDrive location and that file. Otherwise, they will see the error.
Make sure it is truly in a OneDrive company sharable location. You will run into many issues down the road if you put it in your own OneDrive and try to share it that way. Not that you can't, just that you can open up issues in the future.
