Recently in one of the custom pages (canvas app), we started getting the below error “Error when trying to retrieve data from the network” and no data was being retrieved.

Decreasing the data row limit to 500 from 2000 seemed to fix this issue for us.

I assume it could be because of the number of records increasing in the environment over time causing this issue.
Interestingly after a few days when we tried to check the root cause of the issue, by increasing the row limit back to 2000, we weren’t getting that error anymore.

Hey man, a bit late to the party, but I just wanted to let you know that I got the issue after I turned off Explict column selection. I use SP document location record in a Custom Page from the Document Location table and after I turned off Explicit column selection I got the error and nothing worked. Once I turned it back on it worked again normally
