In my new app I'm using simple Edit Form with a Submit button set to SubmitForm(Form1). When I run the app checker in edit mode, no errors show. When I run the app from edit mode, complete all the fields and click Submit, I get this error: "Network error when using Patch functions: the requested operation is invalid".
All googling has led to answers that deal with patch functions (obvs) but as I'm not using one, I'm not sure how to proceed. Anyone seen this before of have any ideas?
Solved! Go to Solution.
You need to click on the actual event in the event list.
Once you do, the details will show on the right and you will have "tabs" of information to choose from:
The tabs will be dependent on the event operations. The above is a data operation.
SubmitForm actually uses a Patch statement under the covers.
This is usually an indication that you are providing an invalid column value to one of your columns in the datasource.
First, ask yourself what you have changed in the form to this point as, out of the box, the form should operate without any error. So, it is usually a change that has been made that is the source of the issue.
Next, if you can't pinpoint the issue by deduction, then utilize the Monitor tool to observe the app event that is in error. The request and response of that event should provide some guidance.
I hope this is helpful for you.
Hi - thank you for the quick response. I've identified the issue - one of the fields has column validation on it.
Yes, those type of things will cause the error. The Monitor tool would identify this as well in the future.
The monitoring tool just gave me an error about being unable to create a row on this occasion it wasn't so helpful!
Did you review the request and response data tab of the event? It should provide a ton of detail!
Maybe I'm using the wrong monitor as I don't see a request/response tab?

Ahh - yes I did see that pane but didnt notice the tabs there - thank you! Your help is much appreciated
Happy to help!
By the way...the Monitor tool is indispensable!! It will provide SO much information about everything in the app that is going on. Once you get used to it, you will find it to be a great tool.
