    Hi KRYPTON,

    I opened its url and get the same error with yours. Then I find this blog(“Cannot read property ‘’ of null”–Error while calling an action from a WebResource in Dynamics 365 - Xrm.WebApi.execute - Debajit's Power Apps & Dynamics 365 Blog (debajmecrm.com)) and use the following code to test:

    
    
    Page for XRM WEBAPI Create Record in Student Entity
    
    
    
    
    

    Create Record in Student Enitity

    This is testing page for creating record by XRM.webapi.Create Record for Lead Enitity.

    Subject


    Company Name


    First Name


    Last Name


    Business Name


    Date of Birth


    Order Type : 192350000


    And it can work:

    Hi KRYPTON,

    I have tested your code on my side. When I press F12, I got the error xrm is not defined.

    So you need to change xrm.Utility.alertDialog("ID : " + result.id); to Xrm.Utility.alertDialog("ID : " + result.id);(Spelling mistake)

    After changed this, it can work fine.
