Custom Control Framework (CCF)

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement contains some impressive hidden gems in some really cool functionality that really promote a more immersive and interactive user experience. One such gem is the Custom Control Framework or CCF, which enables users the ability to place interactive controls over attributes. This video shows off some of the standard Custom Controls and how to add these to the new Unified User Interface (UUI) forms. It is believed that Microsoft will enable us the ability to create our own custom controls in future releases.

I'd also like to give a shout out to Amandip Dhillon for being a part of the testing of these controls! Awesome job :)

  1. Hi Chris,

    Thanks for the video. Do you know if it is possible to use the custom controls on Views as well? E.g., would it be possible to see a star rating on a view - or will it only be the actual value that's showing?

    1. Not sure about CCF, but there is a way using JS https://www.ashishvishwakarma.com/customize-views-with-javascript-in-dynamics-365/
