    Hello Anonymous,

     

    As far as I understand, your case is to update formatting panel from TypeScript code. Is that correct?

    If so, you should use persistProperties.

    The could will look something like this:

    host.persistProperties({
    merge: [{
        objectName: "yourObjectName", // The same is specified in capabilities.json
        properties: {
            yourPropertyName: "Value",
            yourPropertyName2: "Value2",
        },
        selector: null, // The selection is null in most of cases
    }]
});
