It looks like you're asking about implementing dynamic routes with a slug parameter (like /{slug}) in the context of Power Platform, possibly for Power Apps, Power Pages, or related tools. Based on what I've gathered, Power Platform doesn't have built-in routing exactly like Next.js or ASP.NET Core, but you can achieve similar dynamic behavior using parameters and URL handling,especially in Power Apps or Power Pages for custom experiences.
Using Param Function for Dynamic Parameters
In Power Apps, you can pass and retrieve dynamic parameters (think of them as slugs) when launching an app. This is handy for creating "dynamic routes" where the app behaves based on a URL parameter. For example:
- Use the Param function to grab a value like "slug" from the URL.
- Syntax: Param("slug") returns the value passed in the app's launch URL, or blank if not provided.
Here's a quick step-by-step to set it up:
- In your Power App, on the OnStart property or a screen's OnVisible, check for the parameter: Set(MySlug, Param("slug")).
- Then, use MySlug to filter data, navigate, or load content dynamically. For instance, if your app is launched with a URL like https://apps.powerapps.com/play/e/{app-id}?slug=my-value, it captures "my-value" as the slug.
- If you're integrating with SharePoint or other sources, you can pass this param to filter galleries or forms.
For Power Pages or Web-Like Routing
If this is for Power Pages (websites built on Power Platform), you can handle dynamic URLs with custom pages and query strings:
- Define pages with parameters in the URL path, and use Power FX or JavaScript to process them.
- For more advanced scenarios, like environment routing for makers, admins can set up automatic redirection to developer environments, which indirectly supports dynamic workflows.
If you're building something more web-dev oriented (e.g., with React or Next.js integrated via Azure), dynamic routes like [slug] can be set up in your file structure for SSG or SSR, then deployed to Azure Static Web Apps for Power Platform integration. For example, create a file like pages/[slug].js and use getStaticPaths to generate paths dynamically.
