Hi Sahara,

Yes you can do it,however your serverside fn has to be an action which after creation should return an output parameter of type entityreference.You can invoke your action using xmlhttprequest /Ajax.

You can use custom action and call it through Ajax call.

Hi Sahara,

I assume that you are trying this ajax call in web resource and in c# code you might have written function to create record.If that is the case you can call the Web api with action return type json :

e.g.

jQuery.ajax({

type: "GET",

url: 'api.geonames.org/postalCodeLookupJSON;country=AT&username=demo',

dataType: "jsonp",

cache: false,

crossDomain: true,

processData: true,

success: function (data) {

alert(JSON.stringify(data));

},

error: function (XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {

alert("error");

}

});

Hope this helps,

Hi this can be done using standard javascript on a promise. The create script will return your Guid natively.

AMA AMV: you can input parameters in Action using JavaScript and you can use it in custom action.
