Open a custom page from a model driven app

Hi everyone,

I am trying to open a custom page from a model driven app from a custom button selected from the command designer. Unfortunately the custom page does not open when the button is clicked.

I have trawled through the forums trying to identify the cause but I have not come to a solution.

Fixes attempted:

Used static values first to diagnose the problem
Doublechecked the custom page is added to the model driven app as well as from the Solution
Published the custom page and the model driven app and published all customisations on every change
Used the logical name of the custom page as opposed to the display name
Ensured you have capitalised the “I” – it should be recordId. However, I have not even got to this point yet because the custom page does not even load

Below is the java script from @dianabirkelbach, only the custom page name has been modified: https://dianabirkelbach.wordpress.com/2021/07/29/how-to-make-dialogs-for-model-driven-apps-using-custom-pages/

function openCustomPage(pageContext){
   Xrm.Navigation.navigateTo({ 
      pageType: "custom",  
      name: "new_samplecustompage_off9d",  
      entityName: pageContext.data.entity.getEntityName(),  
      recordId: pageContext.data.entity.getId()
   }, {
   target:2, 
   width: 700, 
   height:400}
   )
  .then(console.log).catch(console.error);
}
