Hi Guys,
I'm sure there is already an old thread for this, but for some reason i can't seem to get the search on the website to narrow down to what i'm lookign for.
I'm faced with an older CRM 2015 version on prem.
I need to create a simple javascript function that will take information from the current "on page" record and create a new record from in a different entity.
I know i need to use XMLHttprequest but i don't know how to do it.
Can someone help with this ?
Make sure to close this thread.
Thanks Guys!
I used the RESt Builder!
What a fantastic tool!!!
Hi,
In addition to that you can also download Rest Builder which will help you to write request for you, You can configure which field you want to set and then generate query for the same.
Hi whydoihavetocreateanotherlogin,
This article explains how to create a record using OData and jQuery in Dynamics CRM 2015. You will need to edit the JavaScript to pass your desired parameters into the createRecord function. It will only take a small amount of editing to meet your requirement.

// This function creates record by making OData call
function createRecord(entityObject, odataSetName, successCallback, errorCallback) {
//Parse the entity object into JSON
var jsonEntity = window.JSON.stringify(entityObject);
// Get Server URL
var url = "";
if (Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl) {
//Post UR 12
url = Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl();
}
else {
//Pre UR 12
url = Xrm.Page.context.getServerUrl();
}
//The OData end-point
var ODATA_ENDPOINT = "/XRMServices/2011/OrganizationData.svc";
//Asynchronous AJAX function to Create a CRM record using OData
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
datatype: "json",
url: url ODATA_ENDPOINT "/" odataSetName,
data: jsonEntity,
beforeSend: function (XMLHttpRequest) {
//Specifying this header ensures that the results will be returned as JSON.
XMLHttpRequest.setRequestHeader("Accept", "application/json");
},
success: function (data, textStatus, XmlHttpRequest) {
if (successCallback) {
successCallback(data.d, textStatus, XmlHttpRequest);
}

alert("An error has occured while creating the record; Error – " errorThrown);
