How to Add Custom Javascript to Form Event Handler

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I would like to add custom javascript to the Contact and Account address forms, with some additional parameters. I was hoping this would be simple but I'm having a hard time figuring it out.

I have created a new solution with a JScript Web Resource and I'm able to access the Web Resource using the URL. I'm looking at the Form Properties dialog in the class editor, which has an Event Handler section. I was hoping I could get my JScript Web Resource to be triggered by the OnLoad handler, but I can't see any way to add it.

How should I go about this? I'm looking for a way to do this that could be easily rolled out to other Dynamics sites.

    I found another way to the Form Editor but I'll show you the screenshots anyway.

    This is from the tutorial at https://reenhanced.com/2019/how-to-get-started-with-form-scripts-in-dynamics-365/

    And this is what I see:

    Notice that there is no link to the Form Editor on my screen. I'm not bashing the tutorial - it was great but this has been my general experience with Dynamics so far.

    Anyway, I got through the tutorial and added my javascript to the form. 

    I can't expect my non-technical clients to do all these steps though. I believe I can package my javascript up in a zip as a "solution" that clients can just import to their site? How do I go about this?

    Could you please send a screenshot of what you see.

    Thanks I'm looking at the links just now.

    This is quite frustrating because the UI in a lot of the documentation and tutorials I've seen does not match up to reality. For example, the first link has instructions to "open the form editor from the dropdown menu in the ribbon", but that link simply doesn't exist in my Dynamics..... :(
