Hi All,

I am trying to refresh the HTML web resource on the form on change of a field (date time field) in dynamics 365. I used the code below.

var webResource = Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("WebResource_OnlineMeetingForm");
webResource.setSrc(webResource.getSrc());

But it's not working.

The screenshot of the form is shown below.

On the change of the start time field (date time field), I need to refresh the table (HTML web resource) and display the meetings on that date.

How shall I do this?

Any help is appreciated.

For UCI, you can try somthing like below.

var webResourceControl = Xrm.Page.getControl( "WebResource_page");
let src = webResourceControl.getObject().src;
webResourceControl.getObject().src = "about:blank";
webResourceControl.getObject().src = src;

Here is some code that works also on UCI:

var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext(); var webResArea = formContext.ui.controls.get("web resource name"); var src = webResArea.getSrc(); var url = src.substring(src.indexOf("/WebResources")); var n = url.indexOf("&dt="); if (n > 0) url = url.substring(0, url.length - n + 1); var dt = Date.now(); if (url.indexOf("?data") > 0) url += encodeURIComponent('&dt=' + dt); //unified interface else url += '?data=' + encodeURIComponent('dt=' + dt); //classic interface webResArea.setSrc(url);

I added a timeout to the function and it was able to refresh properly.

setTimeout(function () {

webr.setSrc(src);

},100);

Hi, I too have the same problem, though the above solution is working like a charm in Web client, the same is not working for UCI. Any help is much appreciated.

Hi,

Does anyone know a solution for Unified Interface? What is provided here works on classic interface but not Unified Interface

Try this

function refreshWebResource(executionContext, WebRrscName) {
   var _crmForm = executionContext.getFormContext();
   var webResource = _crmForm.getControl(WebRrscName);
   if (webResource != null) {
       var webResourceSrc = webResource.getSrc();
       webResource.setSrc(null);
       webResource.setSrc(webResourceSrc);
   }
}

on form field event handling

check execution context as first argument and set "WebResource_YOURNAME" as second argument.

Does this work in v9.0? I had the same code working in 8.2 but now it appears to be failing. I assume this needs to be rewritten using executionContext.

Hi Nithya,

Thanks for your response.

Yes. I have prepended "WebResource_" with my Web resource Name.

Ex: WebResource_test

But, I am getting null value.

Thanks.
