FAQPage Schema
How do I build Power Platform PCF controls using React and Fluent UI?

Build Power Platform PCF controls by implementing ReactControl patterns with Fluent UI v9 integration. This approach provides structured manifest references and production-ready lifecycle management for reliable UI deployment.

What is the difference between ReactControl and StandardControl implementations for PCF?

ReactControl implementations cover virtual PCF controls using React, while StandardControl covers legacy PCF controls. Both patterns apply across Model-Driven and Canvas Apps within the Power Platform environment.

How do I create a dataset control for a Power Apps PCF project?

Create a dataset control for Power Apps PCF by applying specific manifest patterns and dataset guidance. This includes configuring the manifest for data-bound scenarios and following structured debugging workflows.

Can I use Fluent UI v9 components in a Power Platform custom control?

Yes, you can integrate Fluent UI v9 components in a Power Platform custom control. The integration provides reliable UI patterns and manifest references to ensure proper rendering and deployment across Model-Driven and Canvas Apps.

What are the steps to scaffold and test a PCF control locally?

Scaffold and test a PCF control locally by installing the pac CLI, running pac pcf init, installing dependencies, and starting the local test harness to validate behavior before deployment.

Does this PCF guidance cover deployment steps for Model-Driven and Canvas Apps?

Yes, this PCF guidance covers deployment steps for both Model-Driven and Canvas Apps. It provides production-grade lifecycle management, manifest patterns, and debugging workflows to streamline the deployment process.
