Asynchronous drop-down

By default the control uses mock data. If you want to test the control with SharePoint, change the commented sections in the DropdownWithRemoteDataWebPart.ts file inside the loadLists and loadItems functions and deploy the sample web part to your SharePoint developer tenant.

  • linking multiple custom property pane controls together
  • loading data for use in custom property pane controls asynchronously without blocking the web part
  • forcing React components to repaint using an external trigger
  • displaying a custom loading indicator
  • reacting to web part property changes
  • updating properties of web part property pane controls
  • refreshing the web part property pane from the web part
