Can anyone point me to an example of populating a D365 form using Web API to get data from a related entity. The data is two relationships away so not N:1

Thanks G

Hi,

As long as you have the data to identify/ select the record, you can use web api. I would suggest to download & use Rest Builder tool-

carldesouza.com/dynamics-crm-rest-builder

Hope this helps.

Yes you can do it.

Create a HTML web resource and add all fields that you want to show.

Hi,

You can use the openForm method: docs.microsoft.com/.../openform and configure a N to 1 relationship between your entity and the entity from where you want to pull the data and configure mappings - see itsolutions.bdo.ca/.../using-field-mapping-in-microsoft-dynamics-crm-to-copy-data-between-associated-records to understand how this works.

Within the openForm method, you can set the createFromEntity parameter. This will will provide default values based on mapped attribute values.
