Creating a Textbox PCF Control

Creating a Textbox PCF Control

If you're looking to create custom controls for Power Apps, this post is a must-read. In a previous post, a simple PCF control that displayed an HTML label was created. In this post, the author explains how to turn that control into a text box. By adding an HTML DOM input textbox, the code transforms into:

var x = document.createElement("INPUT");

x.setAttribute("type", "text");

x.setAttribute("value", "Hello World!");

container.appendChild(x);

With these lines of code, you can create a text box that displays the text "Hello World!" by default. The post provides a step-by-step guide to creating the control, making it simple for developers to follow along.

Whether you're a seasoned developer or just learning the ropes, this tutorial provides a solid foundation for creating custom controls within Power Apps. By exploring different PCF controls, you'll be equipped to develop tailored solutions that meet the unique needs of your organization.
