Remarks

NavigateToString is asynchronous. Use the NavigationCompleted event to detect when navigation has completed.

Note

NavigationCompleted replaces LoadCompleted starting with Windows 8.1. In apps compiled for Windows 8, use LoadCompleted instead.

NavigateToString supports content with references to external files such as CSS, scripts, images, and fonts. However, it does not provide a way to generate or provide these resources programmatically. Windows 8.1 introduces NavigateToLocalStreamUri to provide this support.

If the app possesses the enterpriseCloudSSO capability, then web pages hosted inside the WebView control can use single sign on with Azure Active Directory (AAD) resources.
