We are currently developing a PCF (Power Apps Component Framework) that incorporates custom React components, specifically a few dropdowns. Our goal is to make these components accessible within the property panel of the Dataverse's form editor. We want to be able to insert these components and assign values to them. While we have successfully targeted the classes of these components when running locally, we're facing difficulties in doing the same within the Dataverse environment. It seems that the classes in the Dataverse are not being recognized. Could you kindly assist us in resolving this issue? image_2023_06_07T02_43_47_572Z (1).png image_2023_06_07T02_15_25_063Z (1).png

Hi @PuneetAosc ,

Not sure about what kind of classes you mean... maybe you've changed the code for the Harness itself? I don't know that buttons for a Text property in the Harness. But that would be unsupported.
I would suggest to take a property of type Lookup.Simple, but I see it could be an issue too, since I see a combination of dataset and Lookup PCF in the same PCF, and in the docs it's a warning that this combination is not supported

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/component-framework/manifest-schema-reference/property?WT.mc_id=BA-MVP-5004107#value-elements-that-are-not-supported

If the lookup is not a column inside the dataset (so cannot use property-set), I don't know if you have a better approach than defining the two properties for each lookup: the table name and the id.

If that doesn't help, maybe you can provide the manifest and tell us what you would like to customize.
