    Hi TU1506,

    The model ID is visible in the xml file which can be found in the Descriptor directory of the model. This is part of the source code. If you don't have the source code, you can ask the vendor of the solution.

    What is the background of your question?

    Hi Andre,

    Thx for reply.

    Source code belongs to ISV , is it possible to get model id . We are having duplicate model id issue , wants to see the model id number at my end.

    Hi TU1506,

    You can contact your ISV partner to check the model ID. Are you using two ISV solutions which might have a duplicate ID or is the ID conflict with an own customization model? If it is the last, you can change the ID in your own descriptor file.

    Hi Andre,

    One model belongs to us and same is already been moved to production 2 years back. Other belongs to ISV partner . Since i can see ModelInfo.md of ISV model , i was thinking to get model id from that without having dependency on ISV's confirmation about model id.

    Regards

    Hi TU1506,

    I have no idea if the model ID is available in the ModelInfo.md file. At least the majority of the contents is not readable in Notepad. I'm also working for an ISV where we had a similar question before. We did provide the model ID value and tried to help getting rid of the conflict.

    Hi Andre,

    By using below code we can get model ids including of ISVs.

    class GetModelListCls

    {

       /// <summary>

       /// Runs the class with the specified arguments.

       /// </summary>

       /// <param name = "_args">The specified arguments.</param>

       public static void main(Args _args)

       {

           str60                   moduleName;

           int                     modelid;

           CLRObject               moduleModels, sanModels;

           CLRObject               modelEnumerator, sanEnumerator;

           str60                   moduleVersion;

           Microsoft.Dynamics.AX.Metadata.MetaModel.ModelInfo      modelInfo;

           moduleModels = Microsoft.Dynamics.Ax.Xpp.MetadataSupport::GetInstalledModuleNames();

           modelEnumerator = moduleModels.GetEnumerator();

           while (modelEnumerator.moveNext())

           {

               moduleName = modelEnumerator.get_Current();

               sanModels = Microsoft.Dynamics.Ax.Xpp.MetadataSupport::GetModelsInModuleSortedByDisplayName(moduleName);

               sanEnumerator = sanModels.GetEnumerator();

               sanEnumerator.MoveNext();

               modelInfo = sanEnumerator.get_Current();

               modelid   = modelInfo.SequenceId;

                   info(strFmt("%1 - %2 - %3",modelInfo.Module,modelInfo.Publisher,int2Str(modelid)));

           }

       }

    }

    Thank you for sharing your solution. Let me just simplify it a bit and paste in the right way (Insert > Code), to make it easier to read and copy:

    using Microsoft.Dynamics.AX.Metadata.MetaModel;
using Microsoft.Dynamics.Ax.Xpp;

class GetModelListCls
{
    public static void main(Args _args)
    {
        var modules = MetadataSupport::GetInstalledModuleNames();
        var moduleEnumerator = modules.GetEnumerator();
    
        while (moduleEnumerator.MoveNext())
        {
            str moduleName = moduleEnumerator.Current;
            var models = MetadataSupport::GetModelsInModuleSortedByDisplayName(moduleName);

            var modelEnumerator = models.GetEnumerator();
            modelEnumerator.MoveNext();

            ModelInfo modelInfo = modelEnumerator.Current;
            int modelId = modelInfo.SequenceId;
            info(strFmt("%1 - %2 - %3", modelInfo.Module, modelInfo.Publisher, modelId));
        }
    }
}

    Thanks for sharing. I was not aware you installed the ISV solution already. I do assume you have your answer now?
