Custom ribbon button not getting hidden while using WebAPI calls

I have a custom button which should be hidden until the below requirement is satisfied. But when i use Xrm.WebApi.retrieveRecord this particular button will be visible on load of the form.
Is there any solution for this?

enableSendMailForAssignSEButton = function (primaryControl) {
debugger;
try {
var executionContext = primaryControl;
if (Helperfile == null || Helperfile == undefined) {
setTimeout("enableSendMailForAssignSEButton(executionContext);", 3000);
return;
}
var OpportunityId = executionContext.data.entity.getId().replace("{", "").replace("}", "");
Xrm.WebApi.retrieveRecord("opportunity", OpportunityId, "?$select=new_isquotecreated").then(
function success(result) {
var stage = executionContext.data.process.getActiveStage().getName();
var opportunityType = executionContext.data.entity.attributes.get("new_opportunitytype").getText().toLowerCase();
var hasPSRole = Helperfile._hasPandSEngineerRole(executionContext);
if (opportunityType != null && opportunityType == "master") {
if (stage != null || stage != undefined || stage != "") {
if (stage.trim() == "Plan & Spec" && hasPSRole) {
return true;
}
else
return false;
}
else {
return false;
}
}
});
}
catch (error) {
console.log("Error in Opportunity Js, Method: enableSendMailForAssignSEButton(), Error: " + error.message);
}
}

Thanks,

Hima

Did you setup the enable and display rule in the ribbon workbench correctly?

Hi ,

This is because of async call , see here how do you handle async call for enable disable rule -

Hello Goutam,

I used the above code i was able to hide the button but it does not appear when the condition is satisfied.

enableSendMailForAssignSEButton = function (primaryControl) {

debugger;

try {

var isAsyncOperationCompleted = false;

var isButtonEnabled = false;

var executionContext = primaryControl;

function IsButtonEnabled(formContext) {

if (isAsyncOperationCompleted) {

return isButtonEnabled;

}

if (UTC.UtilitiesT == null || UTC.UtilitiesT == undefined) {

setTimeout("enableSendMailForAssignSEButton(executionContext);", 3000);

return;

}

var OpportunityId = executionContext.data.entity.getId().replace("{", "").replace("}", "");

Xrm.WebApi.retrieveRecord("opportunity", OpportunityId, "?$select=new_isquotecreated").then(

function success(result) {

debugger;

isAsyncOperationCompleted = true;

var stage = executionContext.data.process.getActiveStage().getName();

var opportunityType = executionContext.data.entity.attributes.get("new_opportunitytype").getText().toLowerCase();

var hasPSRole = Helperfile._hasPandSEngineerRole(executionContext);

if (opportunityType != null && opportunityType == "master") {

if (stage != null || stage != undefined || stage != "") {

if (stage.trim() == "Plan & Spec" || hasPSRole) {

isButtonEnabled = true;

}

}

}

if (isButtonEnabled) {

formContext.ui.refreshRibbon();

}

},

function (error) {

isAsyncOperationCompleted = true;

Xrm.Navigation.openAlertDialog({ text: error.message });

});

return false;

}

return {

IsButtonEnabled: IsButtonEnabled

};

}

catch (error) {

console.log("Error in Opportunity Js, Method: enableSendMailForAssignSEButton(), Error: " + error.message);

}

}

Thanks,

Hima

Hi Hima ,

Seems you have added another async call here in below line , might be this is the reason its not returning the correct result.

var hasPSRole = Helperfile._hasPandSEngineerRole(executionContext);

Try to put hard code value here to find the root cause and give a try. Its should work the way in the article mentioned.

Hello Goutam,

Yes, As suggested i removed that line and while debugging it goes till formContext.ui.refreshRibbon(); but then i get formContext undefined and the button is still hidden.

Can you please suggest a solution? I think I'm missing something.

try {

var isAsyncOperationCompleted = false;

var isButtonEnabled = false;

function IsButtonEnabled(formContext) {

debugger;

if (isAsyncOperationCompleted) {

return isButtonEnabled;

}

var OpportunityId = formContext.data.entity.getId().replace("{", "").replace("}", "");

Xrm.WebApi.retrieveRecord("opportunity", OpportunityId, "?$select=new_isquotecreated").then(

function success(result) {

debugger;

isAsyncOperationCompleted = true;

var stage = Xrm.Page.data.process.getActiveStage().getName();

var opportunityType = Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("new_opportunitytype").getText().toLowerCase();

isButtonEnabled = true;

if (opportunityType != null && opportunityType == "master") {

if (stage != null || stage != undefined || stage != "") {

if (stage.trim() == "Plan & Spec") {

isButtonEnabled = true;

}

}

}

if (isButtonEnabled) {

formContext.ui.refreshRibbon();

}

},

function (error) {

isAsyncOperationCompleted = true;

Xrm.Navigation.openAlertDialog({ text: error.message });

}

);

return false;

}

return {

IsButtonEnabled: IsButtonEnabled()

};

}

Thanks,

Hima
