Hi Tenna Holgersen Bryde,

Thank you for reaching out on the Microsoft Q&A forum.

Please clear your browser cache and re-download the file. Save the Excel file to OneDrive and ensure it is in .xlsx format and properly formatted as a table. Then, import it directly into Power Apps for smoother integration.

We tried it on our end, and it’s working fine for us. Kindly refer to the screenshot below.
