I have a button that calls an action that triggers a plugin, I want to pass a value from my plugin and show it to the user (by popup). I defined an output parameter in my action.
How do I return the value (output parameter) I retrieved in my plugin back to my function js ?

RE: how to return a value from plugin to action

Hi Sahara,

You can set the Output parameters in the plugin for the Action using the below code,

context.OutputParameters["OutputParameterName"] = OutputParameterValue

If the result of executed action is fine (i.e. success.ok == true) then you can read your response (or output parameter value) via success.json() as it will parse your response.

Please refer below code for the same,

//Exceute Action

                    Xrm.WebApi.online.execute(customActionReq).then(

                        //Perform on success

                        (success) => {

                            success.json().then(function(Response){

                              // In the Response.OutputParameterName you will get your out put value

                            });

                        },

                        //Perform on error

                        (error) => {

                            console.log("Error");

                        }

                    );

Hope this helps!

Hi Sahara,

You can use "context.OutputParameters[“ReturnObject”] = ReturnValue" to return value form custom action (plugin code)

Please refer below code for more details:
