Update/patch PCF control in Canvas App

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 117

Hi everyone!

 

I, have tried to deploy a PCF controll to a Canvas app like it says here, I'm on Linux so instead of "msbuild /t:build /restore" I use "dotnet build".

It works fine, the component is packaged, I import the solution, I can then import the component in a  Canvas App.

But If I try to make some changes, I update the control version in "ControlManifest.Input.xml", also the version in "Solution.xml", package again, import again, in recognizes the new version and asks if I want to update, I update, then if I go back to the Canvas app where I used it, I don't know how to trigger the the update.

I even tried to delete the solution, but the control still works in the app.

The only way the updated trigger easily is by deploying using "pac pcf push", but I understood this is to be used for development only, not for production.

 

Thank you!

    Found the solution, it was pretty simple, after importing you have to go into the solution and publish, then it will show the update prompt.
