Error When Importing Custom PCF Component on Canvas App: "Couldn't import components"

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 19

I have built a sample drag and drop component for use in our canvas apps. Everything works in the test harness, including the outputs. I can also deploy and update the solution without issue. However, I haven't been able to successfully get the component to import and add to a screen. I just get that pink error message that only says "Couldn't import components." Nothing in the console either.

 

Here is my manifest:

    I found that the issue I encountered above was only on my tenant's default environment. I don't have clarity on why that would be an issue, but switching to an environment other than the default fixed my issue.
