wait for process data - custom component

Posted on by hortigas 16

Hi, I am new to power apps component framework and typescript. I made a component that receive a string and give a output based on that string, the problem is, Power Apps isn't waiting for the output to update. ex:


Set(varComponentInput, "data");
Set(varOutput, component.Output)
varOutput is blank

    Hi @hortigas  - this is because the calls are event driven - rather than synchronous. We have just got events for custom canvas component - so I expect custom events for PCF will follow - but until now you will need to add logic to the 'OnChange' event of your PCF component.
