Open custom page with record context with 'navigate' function, not using JScript

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 237

Within canvas apps it is possible to pass information thru from one screen to the next using the navigate PowerFX function. 

Why is it not possible to do the same when I open a custom page from a records main menu, e.g. the account form menu. 

 

I know it is possible with JScript, but as a low coder I want to stay away from JScript and in my opinion the Navigate function is equiped to do this. But can it from a command bar button? 

I have the same question (0)

    According to the below documentation looks like it is possible

    Hi @Mglat , 

     

    I am afraid that this is not possible with powerFx at the moment. You can pass the Id of a record to the navigation Api with JS code.

    Thx for your reply. I think MS will create this feature in the near future. Till then I'll stick to the standard JS approach as documented by MS
