Hello,

I have an API custom connector in PowerApps, and I want to trigger a that custom connector from a button which is in my PCF.
How can I do this?

Re: How to use custom connector in PCF?

Hi @kanishq1 ,

Is it possible to trigger the Custom Connector inside the Canvas App / Custom Page?

On click in the button inside the PCF, you could change an output property, and trigger that way an event (or make the button a outside the PCF).

If the PCF needs the data provided by the connector, you could use a PCF property of type dataset.

If that's not an option, I guess you would need to make your own XmlHttpRequest for the Connector. Didn't tried it out though.
