Extension Package and Control AddIn not compatible?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello everyone,

My team is currently developing a JavaScript Control AddIn for Dynamics NAV 2016.
Our plan was to ship the Control AddIn in an Extension package with a custom page as a CardPage to include in existing Pages.

When I tried to build the Package with the Cmdlet New-NAVAppPackage in the Dynamics NAV 2016 Development Shell I got the following error: "New-NAVAppPackage : Cannot add the ControlAddIn property on Control [...] within Page $mycustomPage [...] + CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument, InvalidOperationexception.

I've read all the existing MSDN - Pages regarding Extensions and watched several Videos regarding the Topic, but nowhere I could find Information on the compatibility of Control AddIns and Extension Packages.
In the documentary for the Extension Packages you can find that the Page Property "ControlAddIn" is restricted on Existing Page Modifications - but in this case I am trying to add a new, custom Page with the AddIn.

 Is the inclusion of Control AddIns not supported in Dynamics NAV 2016 Extension Packages?

    Hello Jonathan,

    thanks for the link, but I've already found this page during my initial Google searches regarding this Topic.

    Unfortunately the blog post itself does not contain information on Control AddIns inside Extension Packages, but is overall a good introduction for the Extension package process.
