Hello Everybody,
I am pretty new to the world of Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM and have been practicing JavaScript Statements in the demo version.
I am using the below mentioned JavaScript Code in the Form Onload event but it is not giving me the desired output. Can anybody guide me or correct me here?
function testmethod()
{
Xrm.Page.ui.formSelector.getCurrentItem();
}

ok, please make sure
1. Your form changes are published, you can try to republish your entity.
2. Check if your entity forms have form level security if yes, make sure you have required security roles.
First you should be able to see form selector if you have two forms then your code will work fine.
No..I have not been able to see the name of the form through form selector
Just to confirm, you are able to see form selector when you open form ??
Hi Meenoo,
I have created 2 forms under one entity 1. New Addition Form 2. Revised main form and when i am putting the below mentioned code in Form Onload event , then its giving me nothing when i open a new form.
function testmethod()
{
var formLabel = Xrm.Page.ui.formSelector.getCurrentItem().getLabel();
}
Hi Ekansh,
How many forms do you have? Are you getting a different form name than what you expect or are you getting an error?
You have it correct in the script. If your entity has only one form defined, .getCurrentItem() will return null
var formLabel = Xrm.Page.ui.formSelector.getCurrentItem().getLabel();
Thank you.
Hi Matt,
I used the below mentioned code on form onload event to fetch the Name of the form but was not able to get the name. Is there anything wrong in the code?
function testmethod()
{
var selector=Xrm.Page.ui.formSelector.getCurrentItem();
var label=selector.getLabel();
}
In addition to that keep in mind when only one form is available it will return null.
Hi Ekansh,
What is your desired output? This line of Javascript will return a FormSelector object, at which point you can get various properties of it via methods:
var selector = Xrm.Page.ui.formSelector.getCurrentItem();
var id = selector.getId(); --> GUID of the form
var label = selector.getLabel(); --> Name of the form
Hope this helps!
