RE: GUID of account field

At cloud CRM you can create custom text field and automatic cloud flow - get account id and save to custom field. Text field save as read only. Does exist better solution?

Hi

Since this is something we use very often, you can create a bookmark, the following example is for chrome

URL : javascript:if (window.prompt("CRM Record GUID is :", $("iframe").filter(function () { return ($(this).css('visibility') == 'visible') })[0].contentWindow.Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId().slice(1, -1))) { }

When you click on the bookmark CRM Record GUID, you will get

You can copy and paste anywhere you want

Hope this helps

I don't think you can directly add the GUID to the account to the form. (If that is what you want!)

You could try creating a text field and then set that to the accounts GUID.

Maybe in JavaScript using something like (possibly in your onload event) ....

var accountGUID = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId();

Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_YOURFIELD").setValue(accountGUID);

Alternatively if you just need to find the GUID then looking in the url or using email link would do the trick.

Hi Adbul,

It depends what you need it for, But when you open up a record and look at the URL it has the record GUID in the address bar or if you select email link it has the guid in there
