How to redirect to any webresource on button click in MS Dynamics CRM Online?

Posted on by Community Member

Hello,

I am facing an problem when I redirect to any HTML webresource 

I have added a HTML page as webresource name "new_My_ProductList" in solution. I have created a button "Go To My Product" in Ribbon and set following function of JS file as command of it. It will open window.

function RedirectToLowStockList() {

          window.open('WebResources/new_My_ProductList', '_blank', 'scrollbars=1,menubar=no,height=500,width=1000,resizable=1,toolbar=no,status=1');
}

Above function is working perfectly whenever URL is like: "https://mydomain.crm.dynamics.com/WebResources/new_My_ProductList"

But sometimes it generate wrong URL and show Error 404

Here is example of wrong URL:

1- https://mydomain.crm.dynamics.com/_root/WebResources/new_My_ProductList

2- https://mydomain.crm.dynamics.com/_form/WebResources/new_My_ProductList 

We can see that there are 2 key word "_root" and "_form" automatically added in URL. 

Can anybody please suggest me solution? If above way not appropriate, can anybody please suggest me appropriate solution?

    Hi Nanji,

    Unfortunately there is no supported way of using Xrm.Utility.openWebResource to open windows in a new window, however,

    you could change the users browser settings to "Always open pop-ups in a new window" - (this will affect all pages)

    2) Unsupported approach: butenko.pro/.../dynamics-crm-2013-step-by-step-creating-dialog-windows

    I would obvoiusly advise against the unsupported approach, and have not had to use it myself.

    Hi David,

    This is also look nice and working exact as I wanted but I don't know how to set "_blank" to open webform in new window.

    Xrm.Utility.openWebResource(webResourceName,webResourceData,width, height);

    msdn.microsoft.com/.../jj602956.aspx

    Can you suggest me?

    Hi David,

    It is working most time. But sometime it add "/form/" to URL and show error "HTTP 500". We must find another way which provide 100% surity.

    Hi,
    something like:

    var url =  Xrm.Page.context.prependOrgName("WebResources/new_My_ProductList";)  

    window.open( url,'', 'scrollbars=1,menubar=no,height=500,width=1000,resizable=1,toolbar=no,status=1')

    you can find information about the prependOrgName function here:
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg334511.aspx#BKMK_prependorgname

    hope this helps,
        David Levins

    Hi David,

    you mean like this:

    var url =  "/" + Xrm.Page.context.getOrgUniqueName() + "WebResources/new_My_ProductList";

    window.open( url,'', 'scrollbars=1,menubar=no,height=500,width=1000,resizable=1,toolbar=no,status=1')

    If I misunderstood, can you please correct me?

    a quick work around for you would be using window.location.origin

    window.location.origin


    and prepare the URL on your own before loading.

    You can also use prependOrgName which concatenates the slash and org for you i.e. : "/" + ORG_UNIQUE_NAME + path
    e.g:

    var url = prependOrgName('WebResources/new_My_ProductList');
window.open( url,'', 'scrollbars=1,menubar=no,height=500,width=1000,resizable=1,toolbar=no,status=1')
