Posted on by Community Member

Hello everyone,

I am trying to add field level notification to my crm contact form, so i wanted to be type INFO but it keeps showing an error message.

here's the code:

var pattern = /^((00)[0-9]{12})?(^[+][0-9]{12})?$/gm;
var fieldName = 'mobilephone';
var currentValue = formContext.getAttribute(fieldName).getValue();
if (pattern.test(currentValue)) {
formContext.getControl(fieldName).setNotification("Number is not in the right format", "INFO" ,"2");
} else {
formContext.getControl(fieldName).clearNotification("2");
}

    Hi Arura,

    Looks like the error appeared is not from your script, it is by the system's field validation. Could you please help me understand better by answering my queries below?

    1. What is the data type of Mobile Number field?

    2. What was the value you have keyed-in before getting this error notification?

    3. What are you trying to achieve using this javascript code?

    Hi,

    According to the API(https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/model-driven-apps/clientapi/reference/controls/setnotification), setNotification method only support 2 parameters.

    One parameter is your error message, another is the Notification ID which is used in clearNotification method.

    In your code, your Notification ID is "INFO" and you clear it with Notification ID "2". I think this caused your error. Also when the mobile phone matches your regular expression, you should clear notification not set.

    So please try this code:

    function formOnChange(executionContext){
	var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
	var pattern = /^((00)[0-9]{12})?(^[ ][0-9]{12})?$/gm;
	var fieldName = 'mobilephone';
	var currentValue = formContext.getAttribute(fieldName).getValue();
	if(pattern.test(currentValue)){
        formContext.getControl(fieldName).clearNotification("2");
	} else {
	    formContext.getControl(fieldName).setNotification("Number is not in the right format","2");
	} 
}

    My test:

    When the mobile phone doesn't match regular expression:

    When the mobile phone matches regular expression:

    Hi Charan,

    Thank you for your reply,

    1. the field is a single line of text

    2. I didnt enter anything because it's validating empty strings as well. Ps I changed the pattern to

    /^(^\s*$)?(^(00)[0-9]{12})?(^[+][0-9]{12})?$/ please if you can advise why its giving error for empty string

    but its still validating empty strings

    3. I am trying to give a warning message to user only if he enters a wrong value.

    Appreciate your help.

    Hello Steve,

    Thank you for your reply,

    So what i understood from you that I cant display a warning or info message, it's only error message.

    because in my case I want the user to be able to save.

    Appreciate your help!

    Hi,

    If so, you can use addNotification method and set notificationLevel's value to 'RECOMMENDATION'.

    function formOnChange(executionContext){
	var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
	var pattern = /^((00)[0-9]{12})?(^[ ][0-9]{12})?$/gm;
	var fieldName = 'mobilephone';
	var currentValue = formContext.getAttribute(fieldName).getValue();
	if(pattern.test(currentValue)){
                formContext.getControl(fieldName).clearNotification("2");
	} else {
                formContext.getControl(fieldName).addNotification({"messages": ['Number is not in the right format'],"notificationLevel": 'RECOMMENDATION',"uniqueId": '2'});
	} 
}

    You can refer to this API doc https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/model-driven-apps/clientapi/reference/controls/addnotification.

    Hello Steve,

    Thank you so much it works!

    But I just want to ask is it possible to change the icon's position ?

    (I mean the warning icon that pops up once the user enters a wrong value

    Appreciate your help.

    Hi,

    It seems no API can do this.
