Error when trying to retrieve data from the network – Power Apps/ Dataverse

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.
