Custom entity GUID and dynamics portal using liquid

Posted on by Bill Ramz

Hi,

I was wondering where I can get entity GUID values for custom entities or any others. Pretty much, I would like to get the GUID for the entity or any custom entity so I can do the one below per Microsoft Documentation.

{% assign account = entities.account['936DA01F-9ABD-4d9d-80C7-02AF85C822A8'] %} (this does work... I should get my own GUID)

Where I can get the GUID for my custom entity that I created?

{% assign customEntity= entities.mydummyEntity['????????????????????'] %}

If I can get the GUID, I will be able to pull other data.... I appreciate your help and thanks in advance.

Thank you,

Bill

Hi Bill,

You can add the custom entity to sitemap of any of app(in App Designer):

Open a record: GUID of record can be found in id parameter of URL.

Hi Bill,

Obviously we can get the value with other ways.

To get GUID using fetchXml, we can execute the query in FetchXML Tester extension of XrmToolBox.(GUID is not available to the OOB Advanced Find.)

In addition, we can also get GUID by running Web API query in URL directly.
