Hi,

You can create an action and where you can pass set of parameter if required, once activated your action will be available as a new message, so you can register your plugin on that message, and then it can be called using javascript.

a button click is a client event, so at least a few javascript lines are required.

the easiest way in my opinion is to create a dummy entity and attach the plugin to the create event of records of this dummy entity.

the custom javascript will just create a record of this dummy entity using an odata call

Hi,

You can add a custom field in to your entity. Based on the button click, you can simply update the value of that custom field. Now, you can register your plugin for the change of this custom field value.

Hi Tin,

You can only trigger a custom action using button directly.

Using javascript

www.plusconsulting.com/.../Post.aspx

If you want to trigger plugin, then you need to do:

1. Create a dummy field to trigger

2. Create a js to be called from ribbon that will change the field value

3. Create a plugin code to check this dummy field is changed or not

4. Clear the changes so that it will trigger again the plugin (of needed only)

Or use this method:

Hope this helps.

Thanks.

Create a dummy field and hide it in form. update the field value once button is clicked.

and you can call the plugin once the dummy fields value gets updated.

thank you
