PCF vs. Web Resource

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by davallen Microsoft Employee

I have a requirement to have a full page PCF component that can be navigated to from the left hand navigation. From what i understand, you can only have a URL or web resource as a type on the navigation. Is there a way to have a web resource load a PCF component? If so, would that not allow the PCF component to have access to the CRM DOM and ComponentFramework? 

 

Is there plans to allow this sort of scenario?

    Full page custom controls are not available and will be added in the future release. ClientAPI access for PCF is however by design constraint and will not be there hence paramater passing and PCF APIs will be the way forward. 

     

    For now please use web resources as they provide end to end config and runtime expereince.

    I also have the same requirement, and this answers the same question I had. Is it possible to do this functionality then in a Canvas App?
