Is it possible to call a custom action from the PCF control? Execute function shows in the WebAPI object but when we call a custom action an error message is thrown saying that Execute is undefined.

	private async callAction(product:string): Promise<any>{
		var id=	Xrm.Utility.getGlobalContext();
	
		var parameters = {
			ProductName : product
		};
		var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
		
		return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
			req.open("POST", id.getClientUrl() + "/api/data/v9.0/actionName", true);			
			req.onreadystatechange = function () {
				if (req.readyState !== 4) return;
				if (req.status >= 200 && req.status < 300) {				
					// If successful
					try {
						var result=JSON.parse(req.response);
						if (parseInt(result.StatusCode)<0){
							reject({
								status: result.StatusCode,
								statusText: result.StatusMessage
							});
						}						
						resolve(req.response);
					}
					catch (error){
						throw error;
					}
					
				} else {
					// If failed
					reject({
						status: req.status,
						statusText: req.statusText
					});
				}

			req.setRequestHeader("OData-MaxVersion", "4.0");
			req.setRequestHeader("OData-Version", "4.0");
			req.setRequestHeader("Accept", "application/json");
			req.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json; charset=utf-8");
			req.send(JSON.stringify(parameters));
		});

Is the code we use for checking if the user's licence is valid - it uses a promise that returns resolve or reject as appropriate (and we actually only care about rejects here).
