Hi, I need get the record url dynamically and embedded in an external link. For example, I have a grid in an external page to show the all records, how can I have those records linked to dynamics crm records. the current url is like the below:

https://crm1.(company)).com/organization/main.aspx?etc=10008&extraqs=formid%3d1e2af387-1b92-41b1-82ed-b61ed70712e5&id=%7b73D0A6F0-7815-E711-80CB-005056B8439D%7d&pagetype=entityrecord

I can understand that I can get the single record url from the email template, but what if I need all the urls at a time.

Thanks

To generate the record url for opening the record in default form, you do need ObjectTypeCode and GUID of the record

The URL can be generated as below....... Replace the variable values with your values

On-Premise

https://<domainname>/<orgname>/main.aspx?etc=<objecttypecode>&id=%7b<EntityRecordID>%7d&pagetype=entityrecord

Online

https://<orgname>.crm.dynamics.com/main.aspx?etc=<objecttypecode>&id=%7b<EntityRecordID>%7d&pagetype=entityrecord

You can use JavaScript:

Please follow this link to obtain the objecttypecode for the entity of current form

//Get the object type code from the entity name

https://community.dynamics.com/crm/f/117/t/189234

==============================================

var orgURL = Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl();; var recordId = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId().replace("{", "").replace("}", ""); var entityName = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getEntityName(); //Get the object type code dynamically following the above url var objectTypeCode = 1; //for account entity var recordURL = "https://" + orgURL + "/main.aspx?etc=" + objectTypeCode + "&id=%7b" + recordId + "%7d&pagetype=entityrecord";

Hi,

This is my recommendation for MS CRM 2016:

Add a custom "Single Line of Text" field with "URL" format on your form.

Create a custom workflow and enable the "Start when record is created".

Add a step to update created field value with "Record URL (Dynamic)".

You can get a Entity Record Url

executionContext.getFormContext().getUrl();

Here is a generalized method to open get entity record url based on Classic or UCI type
