This is a really basic question. I'm settingg up a DataFlow in Power Apps to my Dynamics 365 Marketing Contact table.  I'm loading 

  • Flirstname
  • Lastname
  • Email
  • customfield Yes/No
  • customfield2 yes/No
  • externalkey int

I'm getting an error

rror code: 0x80040239, Message: DateTime is less than minumum value supported by CrmDateTime. Actual value: 01/01/0001 00:00:00, Minimum value supported:

I don't see any required data fields in the Power Apps portal. What am I missing?

    Hi jarthda,

    Could you share necessary steps which might help to reproduce your issue?

    I am connecting to Dynamics 365 via OData method, and I only chose 6 fields as you mentioned to load table of contacts without trouble.

    thanks for the response. Let me provide an update.  I am wanting to Upsert and have only been able to use Dataflows to load new records. I've since moved my project over to ADF Azure Data Factory. There I have some success upsert just a single custom field from an alternate key. Further, regarding D365 I found data templates in the Manage Data section of advanced settings. I hope this help anyone else.
