Plugin Low Code + Power FX NIE/DNI validation

Jonathan Manrique Profile Picture Jonathan Manrique 2,682
This functionality can be achieved at the front-end level of the user interface using JavaScript that could immediately send a warning to the user that the field does not meet the criteria.
We could also use a C# plugin to write it, but it would be on the backend and not the UI. To do this you must have a little more advanced programming knowledge.
Since the advent of Power Fx, certain code development functionalities are much simpler now. So we will focus on creating a Plugin but using Low Code.
The first thing is to create the string field within the table that we are going to use to validate the process.

Now we need to go to the Model Driven where we can build the plugins, and build an automated one.

Once inside the Application we select new and click on automated.


Select the name of the plugin and the table, as well as when it should be executed


From there is to build our formula using Power FX, I used GitHub Copilot to help me, but the formula came with a small error but it helped me build the syntax and then I was able to adjust it to the need I had


Then we need to establish when it should be executed, before or after the operation, and this point is important for our business case. If we want to validate before saving the data, we must do it in the Pre-Operation

And from here what remains is to test the plugin and how it works, which I leave you a video for it
