Editing custom JavaScript in Model-Driven app inherited from legacy developer

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 42

Hello community members I have a Solution containing a Model-Driven app that was developed by someone who long since left the company.

 

I would like to edit the command bar buttons but not sure how. I got to the Solution, then click an 'apps. I load the powerapp in edit mode, click the view ellipsis -> Edit command bar. I get the error:

"This button is read-only. Legacy buttons is not supported at the moment".

 

My question is... am I attempting to do this the right way, or do I need to use Ribbon Workbench at all, what is the high level process for editing an existing solution/app like I'm trying to do here?

 

Thanks in advance 🙂

    yes the process is different you can import ribbon workbench to the power apps solution https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Power-Apps-Community-Blog/How-to-Install-Smart-Buttons-for-Ribbon-Workbench-using/ba-p/2009126

    I suspected I will need to use it!

    OK this link looks like D365, I'm trying to use PowerApps so is the process different?

    I don't have option to import Ribbon Workbench in PowerApps solutions.
