Add ClientsideWebpart quick links

[Pavel2235]

Hi!
I tried to create a modern page with ClientsideWebparts.

const testPage: IClientsidePage = await sp.web.loadClientsidePage('/SitePages/mypage1.aspx');

const quickLinks = ClientsideWebpart.fromComponentDef((partDefs.filter(c => c.Id === "c70391ea-0b10-4ee9-b2b4-006d3fcad0cd")[0]));
    quickLinks.setProperties({
        Title: "Google",
        iconPicker: "search",
        buttonLayoutOptions: {
            buttonTreatment: 2,
            iconPositionType: 2,
            linesOfText: 2,
            showDescription: false,
            textAlignmentHorizontal: 2,
            textAlignmentVertical: 2
        },
        dataProviderId: "QuickLinks",
        serverProcessedContent: {
            links: {
                baseUrl: "/sites/TestSite",
                "items[0].sourceItem.url": "https://xvzms.sharepoint.com/"
            }
        },
        items: [
            {
                altText: "",
                description: "",
                id: 1,
                sourceItem: {
                    fileExtension: "",
                    itemType: 2,
                    progId: ""
                },
                thumbnailType: 3
            }
        ]
    })

    testPage.addSection().addControl(quickLinks);

    await testPage.save();

But unfortunately, I don't see any links on the page.

Please tell me what could be the error?

spfx: 1.17.4

Hi @Pavel2235,

I have reviewed your question carefully and I believe that the problem is that you are not setting the items property correctly. The items property should be an array of objects, where each object represents a link. Each link object should have the following properties:

• altText: The alt text for the link.
• description: The description for the link.
• id: A unique identifier for the link.
• sourceItem: An object that represents the source item for the link. The sourceItem object should have the following properties:
  • fileExtension: The file extension for the source item.
  • itemType: The type of the source item.
  • progId: The prog ID for the source item.
  • url: The URL of the source item.
• thumbnailType: The type of thumbnail to display for the link.

Here is an example of how to set the items property correctly:

items: [
    {
        altText: "",
        description: "",
        id: 1,
        sourceItem: {
            fileExtension: "",
            itemType: 2,
            progId: "",
            url: "https://xvzms.sharepoint.com/"
        },
        thumbnailType: 3
    }
]

Once you have set the items property correctly, you should see the links displayed on your page.
