problem with the payload when saving a record

Question

when I try to add\change the value of a custom lookup and then save it, I get this error:

Exception Message: Error identified in Payload provided by the user for Entity :'', For more information on this error please follow this help link https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2195293  ---->  InnerException : Microsoft.OData.ODataException: An undeclared property 'ey_org_unit_hr_id' which only has property annotations in the payload but no property value was found in the payload.

ErrorCode: -2147185383
HexErrorCode: 0x80048d19

the field's logical and schema name is "ey_org_unit_hr_id" (both of them are identical).

I opened the post request that the form sends and this is what I found:

{"[email protected]":"/ey_businessunits(91293b20-afb7-e611-bec8-0050568c00dc)",
"[email protected]":null,
"ey_s_name":"test555",
"ey_b_is_doctor_house":false,
"ey_b_is_route_service_requests":false,
"ey_b_real_branch":false,
"statuscode":1,
"statecode":0}

then I opened the metadata and found out that the NavigationalProperty Name of this field is different than what is used in the post request (ey_org_unit_hr_id is used in the request but the navigational property name is ey_ey_businessunit_ey_branch_hr which is also the name of the relationship).

Photo of the navigation property name

so i tried to send a post request using postman whith the currect NavigationProperty Name and it worked without an error. Here is the request:

{"[email protected]":"/ey_businessunits(91293b20-afb7-e611-bec8-0050568c00dc)",
"ey_ey_businessunit_ey_branch_hr@OData.Community.Display.V1.FormattedValue":null,
"ey_s_name":"test555",
"ey_b_is_doctor_house":false,
"ey_b_is_route_service_requests":false,
"ey_b_real_branch":false,
"statuscode":1,
"statecode":0}

I thought about changing the navigational property name to what is used in the original post request but I don't know if I can change the metadata.

Answer 1

Try this property name: _ey_org_unit_hr_id_value.

Answer 2

You should check your error code at the below link. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/data-platform/reference/web-service-error-codes

AFAIK, the 0x80048d19 code will be exposed by sending request with invalid data. In my case, I got this error code when i sent request without header "Content-Type: application/json"

I hope this can be helpful to you
