Posted on by 700

Hi,

We have requirement to track user live location and store it in entity so that we can use for further process.

 We have create HTML webresource to track user location and we able to track it but issue here is that when Dynamics 365 app close or we switch to other app then it stop tracking user location.

 We want to track user location even though Dynamic 365 mobile app is minimized or not in focused.

 In Summary we want to track user location in background in dynamics 365 app. Is there way in dynamics 365 app do achieve this.

 Thanks!

    Hi Balasaheb,

    It is possible to track user location in the background but results will vary depending on the phone used.

    Hi Adrian,

    Thanks for your reply.

    I tried the code provide in above link but the problem is that when a mobile device goes into screen lock mode or goes to sleep, code will not run the code or not record the locations.

    Is there way to record location even though mobile device goes into screen lock mode or goes to sleep

    Thanks!
