Hi Kashyap,

Unless the data is saved in DB, the system would not generate GUID for the record, it will be null.

Follow this, this might help you:

Hope this solves the problem.

At the time of new record Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId() because record is not yet save. If you want you go ahead plugin post operation and do your logic.

Once Record is Saved only, then only it will create a new Guid and then you can retrieve.

If you want retrieve the record after the Database transaction, as suggested by Alagu use the images in the plugin and you can get the data

Check this

crmbook.powerobjects.com/.../plug-in-images-pre-vs-post

In Plugin too, once its saved you get the GUID using the Post Images in the plugin.

Before going down the plugin route try incorporating a callback function. Not had time to test that it works myself but something like:

var callBackSuccess = function(){

var id = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId();

}

var errorCallback = function(error){

console.log(error.message);

}

Xrm.Page.data.entity.save().then(callBackSuccess, errorCallback);

Alternatively you can try refreshing the form data after the save before retrieving the Id.

Hello,

Try to use something like following:

Xrm.Page.data.save().then(function(){

var id = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId();

}, function(){

//handle error here

});
