push data to case entity through api

Posted on by 524

I am having a requirement to push data to case entity through rest api from third party system. Right now I am doing from postman.

xxxxxx.api.crm8.dynamics.com/.../incidents

There are some lookup values need to pass through this url. I know we can use the appropriate guid. but without using guid, is it possible to pass the data like using name field ?

And, in the case entity, one of the lookup field has onchange javascript customization is there. Will it be execute when we push the data through api ?

    Hi Anandh,

    API will not trigger the logic as onchange javascript customization works only on the client side.

    Hi Anandh,

    You can refer to these posts:

    community.dynamics.com/.../using-alternate-keys-with-the-webapi

    stackoverflow.com/.../map-crm-web-api-lookup-to-the-name-field-instead-of-the-guid

    Also, onchange javascript customization will not trigger if you push the data using API. You need to write a plugin or power automate to handle this scenario.
