Issue with using Xrm.Utility.openQuickCreate() from HTML web resource

I'm trying to open an entity's Quick Create form from an HTML web resource from navigation of an entity. I'm using Xrm.Utility.openQuickCreate("entityname", null, null) for a start.

I get an error saying JQueryApi is not defined in the browser's console.

However, other functions like Xrm.Utility.openEntityForm and Xrm.Utility.isActivityType(entityname) does work.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Thanks for the response Rahul,

I wanted the same to be opened from inside an HTML web resource. Unfortunately, Xrm.Utility.openQuickCreate() doesn't work there...

Did you tried like this,

/ ** Create an object including the accountId. Used to call the

// ** quick create form in the context of the account

var parentAccount = {

entityType: "account",

id: accountId

};

// *** NOTE: Here we aren't setting any parameters! (But we could!)

var parameters = {};

// *** Call the Xrm.Utility needed to add a contact.

Xrm.Utility.openQuickCreate("contact", parentAccount, parameters).then(function (lookup) { successCallback(lookup); }, function (error) { errorCallback(error);});

// *** Function called on success.

function successCallback(lookup) {

alert("lookup: " + lookup.savedEntityReference.id);

alert("lookup: " + lookup.savedEntityReference.name);

}

// **** Function called on error.

function errorCallback(e) {

// *** No new contact created, which is an error we can ignore!

alert("Error: " + e.errorCode + " " + e.message);

}

Regardsm

my HTML web resource isn't even on the Form, it's inside navigation area of the record.

However, other methods from Xrm.Utility work fine in HTML web resource. Strange.

If HTML is embedded in CRM entity form, then window.parent will work.

If it’s a popup, then window.opener should work.
