Hi folks,
So just wanted to ask a quick question about retrieving a contact's specific form-type when calling the Dynamics Web API from the root url <name>.crm.dynamics.com/api/data/v9.1
However, in the Health 365 portal, contacts can be viewed from a couple of different views - as "patients" in Patient 360, as "practitioners" in Physician 360, or just as a plain old Contact (see image below)
I want to make a Get request to this contact from the Physician 360 view - because there are values in that view that are not accessible when calling just as a simple contact.
When I look at the URL in the web browser when in this view, I noticed that the value for "formid" changes depending on the different views described above. (See URL Below)
When I want to find a specific contact, just as a contact, I call https://______.crm.dynamics.com/api/data/v9.1/contacts(5b1######-#######-######)
My question is simply this - how can I make a REST Call (Get request) like the link above for this contact but also pass that form id in with it?
Thank you so much for any and all feedback!!

Hi partner,
You could try call this client API "Xrm.WebApi.retrieveRecord" to get contact fields.
I retrieved more fields from this than call Org URL with entity id directly.
Entity: Contact.
Available fields in Customization: 192
Fields from Org URL directly: 200.
Fields from WebAPI call: 246.
Any Customization field: No
Sample code:
Xrm.WebApi.retrieveRecord(
Xrm.Page.data.entity.getEntityName(), Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId().replace('{','').replace('}','')).
then(
function success(result) { JSON.stringify(result); }, function (error) { console.log(error.message); });
Regards,
Clofly
