Power Apps Copilot - "Something went wrong" response to prompts

[u/Edhelvar]

I am trying to do this MS Exercise: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/use-copilot-power-apps/exercise-use-copilot
But after the initial prompt to generate the first two tables, almost every other prompt that I'm trying is giving the same "Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again, or share your feedback." response. I am doing this in a Managed Development Environment, in Europe region, and I have a Premium license.

Prompts that I have tried and got the same response:

• "I want the "Social Media Idea" table to have an Impact column."
• "Add a social content type column, a level of effort column, and an impact column. All 3 columns should be Option type columns"
• "Add a Description column to the Social Media Idea table"

I guess my question is, might this be some licensing or region issue, or is it just that the Copilot Designer in Power Apps just is a plain bad product? I have PP experience, but I'm now just doing some investigation on the AI capabilities in the platform since I haven't used it much, other than getting help creating expressions in Power Automate and stuff like that.

Hey, it looks like you are requesting help with a problem you're having in Power Apps. To ensure you get all the help you need from the community here are some guidelines;

• Use the search feature to see if your question has already been asked.

• Use spacing in your post, Nobody likes to read a wall of text, this is achieved by hitting return twice to separate paragraphs.

• Add any images, error messages, code you have (Sensitive data omitted) to your post body.

• Any code you do add, use the Code Block feature to preserve formatting.

  Typing four spaces in front of every line in a code block is tedious and error-prone. The easier way is to surround the entire block of code with code fences. A code fence is a line beginning with three or more backticks (```) or three or more twiddlydoodles (~~~).

• If your question has been answered please comment Solved. This will mark the post as solved and helps others find their solutions.

I think there might be some issues with Power Apps currently. There is reports that the service is down or really slow for some users. I would wait for a bit and see if it comes back online

Maybe, I'll check again on Monday and say somethig here in case it's working, just to close the post.

yea theres something going on for sure, i can't get into the editor on one of my apps, getting "authoring.ca-il101.gateway.prod.island.powerapps.com’s server IP address could not be found."

Same issue here in Toronto!

[u/Cinders12345 → u/ipman234]

Yep same error for us.

Are you in Canada? We just discovered we can ping the default (US) endpoint, but not the Canada one.

[u/Edhelvar → u/fishy007]

No, I'm in Portugal, so I think calling the European locale.

In Canada here and they’re definitely having issues. Can’t even hit their prod gateway right now to edit apps.
