Import failed: EntityService.Create failed for ObjectTypeCode: -1 caught exception

Posted on by Luis Yang 10

Hi community!

I package and export a solution (there are several customized entities,js files and plug-ins in it) from a D365 online environment. Then I applied for another D365 online trial environment and imported the Solution just exported, but the following error occurred. How should I deal with it?

Note: I tried to import separately each entity, and this problem just occurred to a custom entity. The others could be imported successfully.

0x80044150: An item with the same key has already been added.

    Hi,

    Are you importing this entity first time ? or this already exists in the target environment, it maybe the field you are trying to import already exists with the same name but different type. Please recheck your target environment if there is any field with the same name.

    Hi Mahen,

    Yes, this is my first time to import the solution.The target environment is new and currently has no custom entities on it.

    Hi,

    The first time when you tried may be succeeded in importing but there may be issue with trial version. that is why you are getting duplicate error. Try creating a new trail from private browser and wait for some time to get the complete setup then try importing again

    Hi Sreevalli,

    At first, I thought the same way. I applied for an environment and waited for 24 hours to import. Unfortunately, the result was the same.

    Hi Luis,

    Appreciate the effort

    What kind of customizations are there in the custom entities? How many entities are there. try to create a new custom entity and import in without adding any extra customizations - just for testing if it issue with custom entity import. If yes, go for a support ticket to understand what is causing the issue with trail versions.

    I am having what is possibly the same issue.  I have a solution which I imported into a trial a month ago.  I have just tried to import the same solution into a new trial and it is generating the same error against the second custom entity it finds.  I'm very confused when nothing has been changed in the solution.
