Hello,
I'm investigating whether it will be possible to create an offline record pre-populated with known values from another application running on the mobile/tablet device. the integratino mechanism we're looking at is "Deep Linking" as described in this page:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt607595.aspx
I can get the simple, blank quick create form to open using this mechanism, but I can't launch either the full entity form, or prepopulate any form in the mobile/tablet clients. The table below sets out my findings:
| Test Case |

^^This is the target use case |
https://org.crm#.dynamics.com/main.aspx?pagetype=entityrecord&etn=contact&extraqs=fullname%3DJohn%20Smith%26firstname%3DJohn%26lastname%3DSmith
|
Pass
Form opens
and populates as expected |
Can anyone advise if this target use case highlighted above is possible, and if so, point to where I'm going wrong?
