Summary

The React-PPP-PnP-Controls sample showcases the use of the Property Pane Portal to display the PnP SPFx React controls (version 3.7.0) in the SPFx Property Pane.

We are NOT using the SPFx Property Controls, that's the point of the sample.

Features

This sample showcases the use of the Property Pane Portal NPM module. It allows us to use PnP SPFx React controls in the Property Pane, without the need to build custom property controls.

The Property Pane Portal module includes:

• The PropertyPaneHost function, which creates placeholders in the Property Pane
• The PropertyPanePortal component, which leverages React Portals to teleport React components to the Property Pane.

Implemented controls:

• Location Picker
• People Picker
• List Picker and List Item Picker (cascading selection)

Known Issues

There are a couple minor issues with the Location Picker of the SPFx React Controls library. I am working with the authors to get them addressed in the next release. In the meantime, be aware that:

• the control will overflow its container width if the address is too long
• the control doesn't work on the root site
