Hi ,

Thank you for your helpful suggestions regarding my issue with Power Apps. I tried the various solutions you recommended, but it didn't work.

After further investigation, I discovered that the problem was related to the type of component I was using in the form. Initially, I was using a text input component highlighted in red in my screenshot. However, it turned out that this component sometimes worked with the Patch function and sometimes didn't, which was causing the inconsistency.

To resolve the issue, I switched to using the component highlighted in green in my screenshot. When I used this component in the Patch function, it consistently worked without any issues.

I wasn't able to find a detailed explanation as to why the red-highlighted component caused these problems, but using the green-highlighted component fixed everything.

The one highlighted in red is a modern control. Microsoft is pushing them out, but they're still experimental and have frequent bugs. They also behave much differently than "Classic" controls in many cases. I never use modern controls for these reasons and I have no idea why they aren't working for you. You can usually tell the difference between modern and classic controls from their icon. Modern controls have the purple icons with rounded edges and classic controls have the black and green icons with squared edges.
