Describe the bug / error

When pasting in new entries into modern view lists (WebViewList in URL suffix), it is working correctly if all columns in the view are pasted in as a single paste action, however if columns are pasted in as separate past actions, then a validation error appears which does not clear even though there are no validation issues. I have successfully pasted the same data as a single action but if I try to paste individual columns then the issue occurs. I have tried unhiding all columns in the view to ensure there are no other validation issues.

Steps to reproduce

1. Edit in grid view
2. Add new item
3. Paste in one or multiple rows into a single column

Expected behavior

I expect to be able to paste in columns as needed, and the item to be pass validation once all mandatory fields are completed and all other validations have passed.

@elsiegit can you share a little video? The error icon should also bring you to the column with the error; can you provide more details on the column with the error and the data you're pasting?

Here you go, two videos.... same dataset, (1) works fine as a single paste action, (2) fails if multiple paste actions.

No validation error details / tooltips are available. Once this bug occurs, all subsequent pasting fails until I leave the view and return to it. This has only started occurring in the past couple of days and I have not made any changes to any list settings / configuration in this time.

Hi, issue is still persisting... do you have an ETA for resolution please?

@elsiegit can you open up devtools in your browser and type _spModuleLink into the console, hit enter, and let me know what the output is?
