PCF: Direct embedding of Controls into SiteMap


Developers can now embed PCF controls directly into the SiteMap of a Model Driven Application. This can be done by creating a "field" bound control and pushing it to the environment. The control can then be embedded into the SiteMap using the native app designer or the Sitemap Editor plugin of XrmToolbox. Additionally, it is possible to pass additional parameters to the control by using the "data" parameter in the URL. The parameters can be accessed in the PCF control code through the context.mode object. Another option is to use the Xrm.Navigation.navigateTo function to navigate to the PCF control from client-side code.
