Expected / Desired Behavior / Question

I have a web part with Site Url, PropertyFieldListPicker and PropertyFieldViewPicker. When a Site Url is set, the List Picker displays the lists from that site (using the webAbsoluteUrl property).
Expected this also to be the case with the View Picker.

Observed Behavior

Even if webAbsoluteUrl is set (to another site other than the current site), it does not load the views for the selected list in the List Picker.

Error message from console:

Steps to Reproduce

Add the following controls to a web part:
Site Url - Text Field
List - PropertyFieldListPicker
View - PropertyFieldViewPicker

When Site Url is set to another site than the current site, views fail to load based on the selected List.

Hi, no feedback on this issue yet.
@hugoabernier, do you have any feedback on this?

[frankok]

Hi again,
I downloaded the source code, and added the ViewPicker to my project.
After debugging, I tested with adding the following:

webAbsoluteUrl: properties.webAbsoluteUrl,

I added it (on line 135) in the export function PropertyFieldViewPicker in PropertyFieldviewPicker.ts.
This seems to do the trick.

@frankok thanks for reporting this. Sorry, with the massive numbers of emails I get from GitHub, this one slipped through the cracks.

Working on a PR to include your fix. Thank you!
