What’s happening?
Changes made to SharePoint lists are not being reflected in the Power Pages forms that are connected to these lists.


Reason:
This arises from the use of a virtual table in Dataverse, which references external SharePoint data but does not allow direct updates. Additionally, the configuration of the tenant name field as a choice field instead of a lookup field limits dynamic updates.


Resolution:

  1. Clear the cache in the Power Platform admin center to ensure the latest changes are displayed.
  2. Verify that changes in the SharePoint list are saved and published. If the changes are not properly published, they will not sync to the Power Pages form.
  3. Create a new standard table in Dataverse (not virtual) to store the data locally.
  4. Replace the choice field with a lookup field pointing to the tenants table for proper relational data management.
  5. Manually replicate the existing structure from the virtual table to the new Dataverse table.
  6. Ensure all future updates are made within Dataverse to maintain data integrity across Power Pages.
