Call action that trigger a plugin from js

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Jf Marwen 75

 have a scenario where I need to trigger a plugin on a ribbon button click (SYNCH), I have setup the commands and buttons, I have created a custom action,that will be registered in the plugin reg tool to wire up the event. I have tested the ribbon button that just does a simple hello world, so I am sure that the basics are dine and set. My issue lies when I try to call the function that does a SOAP invocation. Here is my code below. 

function CallAction() {
var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.open("POST", Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl() + "/api/data/v9.1/products/Microsoft.Dynamics.CRM.new_ProductPr", false);
req.setRequestHeader("OData-MaxVersion", "4.0");
req.setRequestHeader("OData-Version", "4.0");
req.setRequestHeader("Accept", "application/json");
req.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json; charset=utf-8");
req.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (this.readyState === 4) {
req.onreadystatechange = null;
if (this.status === 204) {
//Success - No Return Data - Do Something
} else {
Xrm.Utility.alertDialog(this.statusText);
}
}
};
req.send();

}

    Hi Jf Marwen,

    Can you disable the plugin and create a step in action, some thing like create account or contact to make sure "Action" works with out any error.

    Thanks

    What input/output are you using with action, if any of them is required and is of type GUID, you need to provide GUID in code.

    Vaibhaw Wadhwa , yes "new_ProductPr" is this name of your action  and it is active

    the error "Sys.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Specified argument was out of the range of valid values. Parameter name: '' is not a valid Guid value."

    "new_ProductPr" Is this name of your Action?

    If yes, is it in active state?

    This is the code from CRMRESTBUILDER 

    var parameters = {};
    var entity = {};
    entity.id = "";
    entity.entityType = "product";
    parameters.entity = entity;

    var new_ProductPrRequest = {
    entity: parameters.entity,

    getMetadata: function() {
    return {
    boundParameter: "entity",
    parameterTypes: {
    "entity": {
    "typeName": "mscrm.product",
    "structuralProperty": 5
    }
    },
    operationType: 0,
    operationName: "new_ProductPr"
    };
    }
    };

    Xrm.WebApi.online.execute(new_ProductPrRequest).then(
    function success(result) {
    if (result.ok) {
    //Success - No Return Data - Do Something
    }
    },
    function(error) {
    Xrm.Utility.alertDialog(error.message);
    }
    );

    not working

    Have you copy pasted exact same code?

    If not please share the code you have pasted, i have shared a link with my reply as well, you can find a managed solution on that link CRMRESTBUILDER.zip(something along that line), import it on your CRM instance, go to settings-->customization, you will see a button for CRM rest builder near ribbon, click on that to open solution, and create a code to run your action from there, most of the time, code created from that tool will just run fine, without editing.

    Hi Jf Marwen,

    The code given by Pravin Pawar will trigger the action to be called on click of ribbon button, then register the plugin in Plugin registration tool and call it using the action name. This will fire plugin on click of ribbon button.
