Hi,

I'm doing this test with Rest and Soap Web Services in CRM online 2013 based in a Video, but in my test I'm getting the error: "ContactoChange is undefined" when I'm changing the Contact. Any thoughts? Thank you in advance!

Danitza.

ContactoChange = function()
{
	var new_name=Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_name").getValue();
	if (new_name==null) new_name"";
	var contactid=Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_Contact").getValue();
	if (contactid==null) return;
	
	// Rest 
	
	XrmServiceToolkit.Rest.Retrieve(
	contactid[0].id,
	"ContactSet",
	null, null,
	function (result) {
		var emailaddress1 = result.EMailAddress1 ;
		alert(emailaddress1);
		},
		function (error) {
			equal(true, false, error.message);
		},
		false
	);
	
	//soap
	

	var cols = ["emailaddress1"];
	var retrievedContact = XrmServiceToolkit.Soap.Retrieve("contact", contactid[0].id,cols);
	Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_name").setValue(new_name+ retrievedContact.attributes["emailaddress1"].value);
}

It sounds like you have not published the JavaScript webresource containing the script. The error you are seeing is because the onchange event is trying to call the function Contactochange but the script that defines it has not been run.

Scott is correct

You need to add the javascript file to the entity form, this will ensure the javascript file is loaded when the form is loaded.

You will need to publish changes.

I guess then you have added an onchange event to a contact lookup but because either you haven't added the javascript file .

Also watch out for adding an onchange event and then not changing what javascript selected, often the default javascript file isn't the correct one.

Hi Dantiza,

I didn't understand this statement.

if (new_name==null) new_name""; if you assigning value. if (new_name==null) new_name="";

it causing error which make your javascript Undefine. Please correct it and also clear your browser cache.

Hi Scott, Thank you for your answer! The Web Resource is published, added on the Entity Form and also in the On change event on the Contact Entity. I think is something in the Code.

Thank you all! After fix the JavaScript in the lines 4 and 5 it is working!!! Have an incredible day :)

This is the new JS:

ContactoChange = function()

{

var new_name=Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_name").getValue();

if (new_name == "") return null;

var contactid=Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_contact").getValue();

if (contactid == null) return;

// Rest

XrmServiceToolkit.Rest.Retrieve(

contactid[0].id,

"ContactSet",

null, null,

function (result) {

var emailaddress1 = result.EMailAddress1 ;

alert(emailaddress1);

},

function (error) {

equal(true, false, error.message);

},

false

);

//soap

var cols = ["emailaddress1"];

var retrievedContact = XrmServiceToolkit.Soap.Retrieve("contact", contactid[0].id,cols);

Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_name").setValue(new_name+ retrievedContact.attributes["emailaddress1"].value);

}
