Hello Experts

This is a weird issue I ran into today. We are using ribbon buttons to created a new record, this will open a new record with all parameters. It is working for everyone except for one user. I tested it using a test user with same roles and teams but I didn't get this error. When I debugged the script, the function which open record in new window succeeded with all parameter but in the end it just stopped. Attached the error message.

Hi,

This is not an user related issue , this is the issue with particular data you are passing in parameter.

Here is the actual error -

System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Expected 'UniqueId' data type for 'process' parameter in 'Request.QueryString'.

When you are passing data using parameter it's basically internally creating a url with querystring . I believe you know there is certain limitation of length to use querystring parameter in an URL depending on the browser you are using.

[View:https://stackoverflow.com/questions/812925/what-is-the-maximum-possible-length-of-a-query-string]

This is a limitation ,the length of the data having in querystring to open the entity form has been exceeded.

One workaround to reduce the length of the data you are passing using parameter.

I have faced similar issue and I avoided to pass parameter then I decided to get and bind the data onload event of creation form.

Hope this helps.
