want to create a PCF control like a subgrid with customize search view

[wanglili]

Hi Guys

I'm a newer to PCF.

Ref to the below link

https://community.dynamics.com/365/unified-interface/f/unified-interface-forum/380408/unable-to-cust...

I know use pcf can create a subgrid(which can dynamically change search view) instead to use unsupported js in d365.

I watch a lot of pcf video,but still have no idea how to create a subgrid pcf.

can anybody do some advice for the subgrid pcf(like use which pcf template ect..)

Hi @wanglili ,

There is a sample dataset PCF component in the docs that can be used on a subgrid - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/component-framework/sample-controls/data-set-gr...

Also Diana has lots of good posts on creating the ColorfulOptionset -  https://github.com/ORBISAG/ORBIS.PCF.ColorfulOptionset

Thank you @ScottDurow ! Happy you recommend my project and blogs.

Hi @wanglili , 

Additionally I would recommend this gibthub repository: https://github.com/brasov2de/ColorfulOptionsetGrid, and this blog https://dianabirkelbach.wordpress.com/2020/08/19/my-checklist-for-a-dataset-pcf-using-fluent-ui/ as a starting point of implementing dataset PCFs.

You would need a PCF with the template dataset. You don't need to care about changing views, you can use the OOB functionality and add filters on top if you need.

If you have more specific questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Kind regards,

Diana

@DianaBirkelbach Can we execute a java script (formcontext.data.refresh) from with in a pcf sub-grid control or from outside.
