Exclusive sneak peek at the new multi-tab Panel (Side Panes)

Introduction

The release of Power Platform Wave 2 2021 has brought in some amazing features and functionalities. One of which is the Side Panes and the ability to incorporate multiple panels in it.

Earlier we had the provision to open a single panel using the method below

Xrm.Panel.loadPanel(URL, title)

Although this was an intuitive addition it had some limitations like the ability to open only one panel at once, and we could only bind items to it using an URL. As can be seen in our screen shot below, how using the loadPanel method we could only show the Inogic docs in the side panel at once.

Xrm.Panel.loadPanel(“https://docs.inogic.com/“, “Inogic Docs”);

However, using the new multi panel in Side Panes we can not only create and open multiple panels at once but also view different type of pages like entity record, entity list (view), html web resource, custom page, and dashboard, for more information on this you can refer here.

Now let us see an example to witness these…
