Replicating Advanced Find Entity and Attribute Dropdown

Posted on by 370

Hi, 

On one of my entity forms i need the exactly same dropdowns as on the Advanced Find Page of CRM. Entity Dropdown should show all the entities (even newly created Custom Ones) and Attributes Dropdown should show all the attributes (even newly created ones) accordingly. In a nutshell the Dropdowns Should be  Dynamic.

Any Suggestions on how to Achieve this.

    Hi Prem,

    This kind of scenario I would suggest to create HTML web resource and using Organization Service /web API  request get the entity and the attributes .
