Taxonomy picker component in the Microsoft Graph Toolkit

Článek

The taxonomy picker is a component that can query the Microsoft Graph API for Taxonomy and render a dropdown control with terms, allowing selection of a single term based on the specified term set id or a combination of the specified term set id and the specified term id.

The component retrieves the first level terms that are present under a specified term set or term. If only the term set ID is provided, it returns the first level terms under that term set. If both the term set ID and term ID are provided, it returns the first-level terms under the specified term.

Note This capability currently supports a single selection of terms coming from the term store.

Example

The following example shows the use of the mgt-taxonomy-picker component to select a term from a term set.
