Issue with "context.navigation.openFile" method

Posted on by DynamicsNinja

Did anyone manage to execute successfully the openFile method inside PCF control?

I passed a simple file object with all the required fields (fileContent, fileName, mimeType & fileSize) and object with open mode as stated in docs, but I'm always getting the error after execution.

Error:

Code: 2147746581
Message: "An error has occurred. Try this action again. If the problem continues, check the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Community for solutions or contact your organization's Microsoft Dynamics 365 Administrator. Finally, you can contact Microsoft Support."
