21Hello!
I have a question regarding the pcf-component-lifecycle:
If I understand it correctly it is best practice to notify the host when the pcf output changes via the notifyOutputChanged-method which triggers the getOutputs for bound properties, which in succession triggers the updateView method.
My question would be, if it is mandatory to do these steps even if I am just using data from third party applications and dont have any crm-properties directly bound to my pcf-component?
Right now, I am getting data from a third party application and display the data within microsoft dynamics via my pcf-component.
So I am only using the pcf-component in order that the user can interact with the data from a third party application, and since I use REACT and dont modify any crm properties, I didn't really need to call the notifyoutputchanged-method until now.
Is this bad practice, because right now it only seems like an unnecessary overhead to implement the "notifyOutputChanged lifecylce" if i dont even really have any crm-ouputs OR did i get the whole concept wrong ?
thank you and best regards
