I've noticed the Loans Table Data is Missing post, in one form or another, many times in the forum without a clear answer, so I thought I would add this post.

Big shoutout to Ben Clist for solving this in under a minute during the Power Up Program's Canvas Apps Live Q&A—turns out it was a classic Layer 8 issue (a.k.a. me).

Here’s what got it working for me:

Power Apps > Solutions > School Library → Edit
Scroll to the Set-up canvas app → Play
Click on Add Data

After a few minutes, you’ll see green status bars showing successful dummy data creation—including the Loans table. The attached image walks you through all 3 steps. Now enjoy Lesson 6. Connect to Loans table data in my canvas app 😊

Note: Ben mentioned this was covered in the Power Up Canvas App videos but wasn’t certain the exact one. If anyone knows, please drop it in the comments to help others!

Hi @CU20050335-3

Thanks for sharing this. This should hopefully help anyone else who isn't able to see the data in the Loans table.

One of the early modules loading data—you should be able to find it there.
