Pcf subgrid view customizer on nested subgrid.

Posted on by Salim_A_M

Hello,

I've messed around in the past with both the 'Editable Grid Control' that allows to add a nested subgrid, as well as the 'Powerapps Grid Control', which allows to add a view customizer pcf.

I am wondering if there is a solution that allows to mix both in one, and after some research, I thought I'd ask here.

Essentially a subgrid that allows both the viewing of a nested subgrid, in which a view customizer is displayed with a pcf.

For visualization purposes, consider this scenario:

DynamicForm -- 1:N -- DynamicInputContainer -- 1:N -- DynamicInputSchema.

I want the pcf available in the DynamicInputContainer form to be usable in the nested subgrid in the DynamicInputForm form.

Form of the DynamicInputSchema entity:

Form of the DynamicInputContainer entity:

Form of the DynamicInputForm entity:

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi @Salim_A_M ,

On the DynamicInputForm you can use the "Power Apps Grid" control, which has the nested grids (preview for now). For that you need only to define the Child records and the relation.

The customizer control you define there, can be used for both the main grid and the nested grid ( DynamicInputContainer and DynamicInputSchema), depending on how to make the implementation of the customizer control.

If I see right, you've already implemented the customizer control used on the subgrid for the DynamicInputContainer form. So oyu can reuse it on the DynamicForm, for the nested grid.

The real problem is that the nested grids are still in preview, so not recommended for production.

Hope it helps!

Hello @DianaBirkelbach ,
Thank you for your reply.

That is precisely it, I want to apply this grid customizer pcf I created to the nested subgrids inside the 'Editable Grid' that's on the 'DynamicForm' entity. I was just asking if that is possible at all, as based on what I can see, the editable subgrid does not have an option for a view customizer control like the 'Powerapps Grid Control'.

Hi @Salim_A_M ,

Exactly.

You cannot add the customizer control to the Editable Grid control, but you have both Customizer control and Nested grids inside Power Apps Grid (preview).
