Hi Community,

I have an edit form that when is submitted it creates 3 different versions in version history and i want to find out whether this is by design or if i am doing something wrong

Image below of the versions created

In this example i have only changed First Name and Full Name but for some reason it creates another version with no changes and also creates another version with just the attachment which was already in the current record since previous versions

This is my onselect submit button code

Set(submitbuttonpressed,true);
UpdateContext({draftuser: false });
If(Form1_5.Valid,Set(Spinner,true));
SubmitForm(Form1_5);
 
 
And this is my onsuccess code
 
If(
    draftuser = false,
    Set(
        Spinner,
        false
    );
    Set(
        previousscreen,
        AllUsersScreen1_1
    );
    ResetForm(Form1_5);
    Set(
        completiongif,
        true
    ),
    Set(
        Spinner,
        false
    );
    UpdateContext({varbenef: true});
    UpdateContext({varbenefspin: true})
);
 
 
 
I also have no other flows triggering this as i checked
What could be causing the multiple version creation here?
 
Thanks in advance
Let me know if further details are required

Hi @NM-06090901-0,

If it is that important to have the information, then what you are suggesting may be the path to go.

Hi @WarrenBelz,

The thing is that this is inconsistent since sometimes it creates a single version and some it creates 2 .As i am currently creating an audit app for this via a flow that uses get changes for an item(properties only) i get empty outputs.Do you think its ideal to create a second flow that checks also -2 versions for this?

Hi @NM-06090901-0,

Looking at a couple of my List/Libraries, I can see a lot of "doubles" with the second one showing no changes (as in yours). A bit of research suggests that this is more a Power Apps issue "touching" SharePoint multiple times during record manipulation and SharePoint doing exactly what it is designed to do - create a Version for each.

Hi @NM-06090901-0,

The other thing (which I should have mentioned earlier) is to open a Monitor Session and see what is actually being written to the List when you instigate the SubmitForm.

Hi @NM-06090901-0,

Try taking out the Reset() and see if that helps.

@NM-06090901-0,

I could see the submit form is used only once in the code

SubmitForm(Form1_5);

Are you sure you didn't patch or form.updates any where in the form?
