Hi Friends,

I have a third party application which is basically hosted in our CRM server IIS to get the address JSON and filled in the parent form, I want to open this html web application from my CRM form onchange event of a field. How can I open the website page and get the JSON data on button click of HTML website and filled to CRM form.

I would appreciate if you help me on this .

Hi,

have you heard of Alert.js.

I really love this library and already used it in various projects:

github.com/.../Documentation-v3.0

You can use the onchange event to show the popup with iframe as explained in the link above.

Use getIFrameWindow to access iframe fields and values.

You could also access from your other web site the CrmContext like this:

var crmWindow = new parent.Alert().getCrmWindow();

crmWindow.Xrm.Page.getAttribute("name").setValue("something")

I am not sure if this might be an issue, but in the IFRAME properties, on the General Tab in the Security Section, what is the value of Restrict cross-frame scripting, where supported?

msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg328034.aspx

Also, do both sites belong to the same zone in your Browser Internet Options (Local Intranet or Trusted Sites)?

Not sure if any of these would help, but something to validate...

Let me know...

Hi,
You can try to use sessionStorage to store value (must be string).

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/sessionStorage

This one will clear after we closed the page. But if you still cannot used this one, you can try to use localStorage (more permanent and you must do clear after used).

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/localStorage

So, on your custom html. You used set function. Then on crm, you get the value to do your action.

Thank you all for your suggestion !! Although those not fulfilled my requirement but it will help.

The security issue coming ,seems I can not access one web site (CRM) control from another website . I fixed this to make same URI , I have hosted the external website inside Microsoft Dynamics CRM folder in the IIS which makes same URI of my html website. Not sure is there any impact or not but my problem is fixed as per my requirement.

Following are the code to open the Website -

var w = screen.width - 75; var h = screen.height - 200; var left = (screen.width / 2) - (w / 2); var top = (screen.height / 2) - (h / 2); var newWindow = window.open("14.48.56.5/.../test_iframe.html", "Address Search", 'toolbar=no, location=no, directories=no, status=no, menubar=no, scrollbars=yes, resizable=yes, copyhistory=no, width=' + w + ', height=' + h + ', top=' + top + ', left=' + left);

And I am accessing the CRM control from the website below way -

window.parent.opener.Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_address1line1").setValue("street")

I have resolved this problem using settimeout , as I am opening the window on change of optionset and as soon as I selected the optonset its first open the window and then its focusing the optionset.

By using settimeout in the onchange function my problem has been resolved and its focusing first the optionset and then open new window .
