Passing parameter from Model-driven to Custom Page not working

Posted on 7 May 2022 08:29:41 by Teevo 312

Hello guys,

In my Model-driven app, I've added a command button to which will open Custom Page. A Javascript has been created, something like this :

function openPageInlineWithContext(selectedItems)
{
    var selectedItem = selectedItems[0];

    if (selectedItem) {     
        let pageInput = {
            pageType: "custom",
            name: "new_accountpage_d32ca",
            entityName: selectedItem.TypeName,
            recordId: selectedItem.Id,
        };
        let navigationOptions = {
            target: 1
        };
        Xrm.Navigation.navigateTo(pageInput, navigationOptions)
            .then(
                function () {
                    // Handle success
                }
            ).catch(
                function (error) {
                    // Handle error
                }
            );
    }
}



Which in one of the lines is this code -> recordId: selectedItem.Id

It is mentioned that is to "handle" the record id to be passed to Custom Page when it is called.

Now in my Custom Page, I have this code in OnStart method :

Set(RecordItem,
    If(IsBlank(Param("recordid")),
        Blank(),
        LookUp(Accounts, Account = GUID(Param("recordid")))
    )
)



But if I tested this Param("recordid") in some Label inside my app, it always empty. May I know how to pass the record from Model-driven View to Custom Page ?

 

The command button in the main grid, when setting the Javascript, I put the parameter to "SelectedControlAllItemReferences"

Is this option wrong for me to choose ? or is there anything else that make the record id is not going to my Custom Page ?

 

Thanks

    RE: Passing parameter from Model-driven to Custom Page not working

    Hi Pedro,

    Sorry, I guess my picture accidentally deleted in my thread. I was actually select "SelectControlAllItemReference"

    And I just tried, if using the one that you suggested, the button will not open anything if no row selected, and if select 1 row, Custom Page is in New Formmode. I tried to change parameter setting again and think the working one is "SelectControlSelectedItemReferences"

    But this is also have some flaws, is that when I didn't select any row, the button will do nothing, not open my Custom Page, whereas if I select 1 row, the Custom Page is shown with the correct record which is selected.

    My initial idea was :

    1. If I didn't select any row, the button press will open Custom Page which is in New Form Mode (to insert new)
    2. If I select, then it will open Custom Page with the corresponding row (record) selected. Edit Form Mode. This one is now done.

    This is possible, right?

    What are actually the meaning of each selection ? I've read this -> https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/model-driven-apps/pass-data-page-parameter-ribbon-actions#grid-values but too bad it looks not clear what what is the meaning of each. 

    But it is getting better and better, Thank You Very Much.

    RE: Passing parameter from Model-driven to Custom Page not working

    Hi,

    Was the parameter that you choose, you are getting all the records and choose the first one, to have only the one you selected you need to choose this parameter:

    SelectedControlSelectedItemIds

    Can you mark the reply as an Answer please.

    Thanks,

    Oo man, I'm new to this, never thought it is case sensitive, also didn't realized it. You bring a new hope !

    It's showing something now. It's still wrong though, as now Not selected or have 1 record selected, my Custom Page showing the 1st record.

    So I guess, now this setting is the one which also incorrect ?

    Anyway I should thanks, first !

    RE: Passing parameter from Model-driven to Custom Page not working

    Hello,

    I think you have a typo in your code, where you have:

    Set(RecordItem,
    If(IsBlank(Param("recordid")),
        Blank(),
        LookUp(Accounts, Account = GUID(Param("recordid")))
    )
)

    Should be:

    Set(RecordItem,
    If(IsBlank(Param("recordId")),
        Blank(),
        LookUp(Accounts, Account = GUID(Param("recordId")))
    )
)

    The difference in on the work recordid, where you need to capitalize the "i", should be recordId.

    Thanks,

    Pedro Azevedo
