Pass Form Context from Form to HTML web resource ;in model driven power apps dataverse

Follow below steps.

step 1 – Pass context from Form to Web Resource using Form on load

on Form on load call the below method. make sure to use correct web resource name.

// This should be in a script loaded on the form. 
// form_onload is a handler for the form onload event.
function form_onload(executionContext) {
    var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
    var wrControl = formContext.getControl("WebResource_new_1");
    if (wrControl) {
        wrControl.getContentWindow().then(
            function (contentWindow) {
                contentWindow.setClientApiContext(Xrm, formContext);
            }
        )
    }
}

Step 2 – Edit HTML Web resource to read the form context

you can now use script to read context and declare global variables to use.

use below code in HTML web resource.
