SharePoint Lists - Bad optional access / Invalid argument numericid

[PPPUser]

Hi community, one of our SharePoint users have a problem since a few days with editing, deleting and displaying list items in SharePoint lists. The user receives the following error messages:

• The user receives an error message when deleting records (Error Code: Bad optional access). The error message does not occur for all list items. Some elements the user can delete, other elements generate the error message.
• When editing elements, the user receives an error message (Error Code: Invalid argument numericid); again, but not for all elements.
• No new records are displayed to the user

The problem occurs only with this certain user. 

The user has already deleted the cookies and cache of his browser. If he uses the private mode of his browser, these problems do not appear.

Does anyone know this problem and has a solution?

We are experiencing this issue and it started happening today. I do not have a fix or solution yet.

[#3]

@PPPUser We are also seeing this as well.

[#4]

Whatever it was - it just started working again. Turns out another user was deleting information out successfully, but the sharepoint list did not update for others. When another item was updated, it refreshed the list and made the changes. Anyone else see the same thing?

[#5]

Same problem to me. Anybody got a solution?

[#6]

Ours appears that it just started working again. - Very odd!

[#7]

Hi!

We also have the same problem but it is not disappearing 😞

Has anyone any idea on how to solve it permanently? 

thanks,

best,

Emma

I'm experiencing the same issue with one of my lists which has over 20000 records. The older records prior to Jun 24th do not have any issue. I see the same error with any newer items.

Anyone found any resolutions yet?

[#9]

We are also experiencing this issue and hoping for a resolution soon as it's greatly impacting our efficiency

[#10]

We are also experiencing this issue. I am currently unable to open or edit new records in our lists.
As a workaround I can use a Power App to do it but it's not a permanent solution.

[#11]

Apparently Power Apps are not a suitable workaround either if you're using Lookup columns as the Lookup doesn't get updated if you add a new record into that.

Hi everyone. I have a client that is reporting these issues as well. Was anyone able to understand what happened? Also, is there anyone else that is having this issue?
I appreciate any help you can provide.

[#13]

@PPPUser Also encountered this today for the first time. I deleted some duplicated items in a list just fine, then one item gave me the Bad Optional Access and refused to delete. What gives?

[#14]

Is this list syncing? You might have users stop the sync as a trial - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/edit-lists-offline-41403c3e-1795-4e07-b56b-ae591cbde2f9 also ensure your ODB sync client is on the newest build.

[#15]

@M-Dub208 interesting this issue started at my end now as well. not synced only populated via the graph. I can view but not edit items.

[#16]

Modifico mis listas, se actualizan y luego no reflejan los cambios realizados.
Luego nuevamente se visualizan los cambios.
Alguien a encontrado la solución?

[#17]

I X'd out of the app and went back in again. Refreshed the app.

[#18]

Same problem. Trying to delete items. They won't delete. Bad optional access. So we just wait and eventually the problem goes away?

[#19]

@PPPUser Any resolution? 

I had this error come up yesterday. I waited until today to try again, but I am still receiving the same error. "1 Item wasn't deleted
Bad optional access"

The entry itself appears to be corrupted somehow. When I click on the list item, no fields appear, just "Invalid argument: numericId". Any updates or solutions from Microsoft?

@CaitlinAO This happened for me today too.  However, I found a workaround:

• Go to the classic 'site manager' interface (put the string /_layouts/15/sitemanager.aspx after your site name - note you need site collection admin permissions to access this)
• Choose the list where you are getting the errors
• Select the items you want to delete, then Actions>Delete, then Okay when it asks if you are sure you want to delete.

When you return to the list in the Modern interface, you may need to refresh a few times but eventually you should see that the unwanted items have been removed from the list.
