Deploying a Custom PCF Control

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello,

 

I build a custom PCF control. The control is working properly on PCF Control Sandbox. Then I created a Solution, added the Control Components to the solution and deployed to CRM. The solution is on CRM and the content (custom control was visible). 

I tried to use the control on a form field but the control is not available.

 

What is the root cause if this issue?

 

Thanks

 

Zsolt

    "Data type declared is the manifest doesn't match the field you are trying to configure" would be my guess.

    Please share the manifest and field type you are trying to configure .

    hello,

    the manifest

     

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <manifest>
    <control namespace="Storm.CRM.PCF" constructor="PeoplePickerControl" version="0.0.3" display-name-key="PeoplePickerControl" description-key="PeoplePickerControl description" control-type="standard">
    <!-- property node identifies a specific, configurable piece of data that the control expects from CDS -->
    <!--
    Property node's of-type attribute can be of-type-group attribute.
    Example:
    <type-group name="numbers">
    <type>Whole.None</type>
    <type>Currency</type>
    <type>FP</type>
    <type>Decimal</type>
    </type-group>-->

    <property name="boundTo" display-name-key="Bound To" description-key="Field name to bind to" of-type="SingleLine.Text" usage="input" required="true" />

    <resources>
    <code path="index.ts" order="1" />
    <!-- UNCOMMENT TO ADD MORE RESOURCES
    <css path="css/PeoplePickerControl.css" order="1" />
    <resx path="strings/PeoplePickerControl.1033.resx" version="1.0.0" />
    -->
    </resources>
    <!-- UNCOMMENT TO ENABLE THE SPECIFIED API -->
    <feature-usage>
    <uses-feature name="Utility" required="true" />
    <uses-feature name="WebAPI" required="true" />
    </feature-usage>
    </control>
    </manifest>

     

    and the field type is single-line

    Try to change the type of the field from "input" to "bound" like:

     

    <property name="boundTo" display-name-key="Bound To" description-key="Field name to bind to" of-type="SingleLine.Text" usage="bound" required="true" />

    What is the datatype of field where you want to bind it? As suggested by @a33ik make usage as bound which will work only for SingleLine.Text fields.

    thats correct.  See the list of supported (and unsupported) types here - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/component-framework/manifest-schema-reference/property#remarks
