Hi,

We create one sample grid control that get grid record collection and perform operation them using following code:

this.context.parameters.sampleDataSet.sortedRecordIds.length > 0

When we add that control in dynamics marketing list at that time it not get record collection.We notice that dynamics marketing list have it own control to show record list 'CC_Marketing_DynamicListSubgrid'.When we set read-Only Grid (default) that also not show record collection.

How we get record collection from dynamics marketing list

Thanks!

Re: when PCF control add in dynamics Marketing list then it not work.

Just checked the code for the CC_Marketing_DynamicListSubgrid control and it is using few specialized internal APIs . Dynamic marketing list is a special type because it uses fetchXML on the fly to dynamically generate the data set. At this point you cannot replace dynamic marketing list by custom PCF visualization. Add an idea https;//pcfidea for feature suggestion

If I recall correctly there was a option to covert dynamic list into static , that path can be explored if it fits the usecase .

Because the CC_Marketing_DynamicListSubgrid is not a standard Grid Control and in the same way I can (and do write) PCF components that updates and supplements the initial dataset with additional information (potentially from other entities) the CC_Marketing_DynamicsListSubGrid is a PCF Component (albeit one written by Microsoft) that is doing a lot of hidden additional work in the background.

And you can just go into the Form editor can change the component type from the marketing control to something else as the form editor does not know that the component is special, it's just a piece of xml saying display this view of data here using this dataset control specified.

Hi @PCF_Developer ,

More details about adding PCF control in Model-Driven app form (CRM Entity form), please check the following article:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/component-framework/add-custom-controls-to-a-field-or-entity

On your side, you should edit your Entity form in classic experience mode, then double-click the field where you want to add PCF control, then click "Controls" tab -> "Add control" as below:

Best regards,

Hi,

Thanks for reply 😀
Yes, we want to use PCF control with the dynamics marketing list because it works properly with a static marketing list. In static marketing list, all member record show in ReadOnlygrid but in dynamic marketing list member data show in 'CC_Marketing_DynamicListSubgrid' control if we switch that control in ReadOnlygrid then member data is empty same happen with Sample PCF grid control.

yes, we add our sample grid control in below thing of Dynamics CRM and it works properly
For view grid
For a particular view only
For Dashboard
For subgrid
For static marketing list
If control functionality is not available for marketing then how can we access add control option in Dynamics CRM.🤔😅

Thanks!

Hi @PCF_Developer ,

Could you please share a bit more about the index.ts code within your PCF control project?

Do you want to embed the PCF control within your D365 Marketing List?

Further, have you taken a try with the PCF control within your D365 CRM (Model-Driven app)? Does it work as expected?

Currently, the PowerApps Component Framework is only supported for Dynamics 365 for CE or CDS and Canvas Apps, it is not available in Dynamics 365 Marketing service currently.

If you would like this feature to be added in PowerApps Component Framework, please consider submit an idea to PowerApps Ideas Forum:

Best regards,
