Metadata Tracker

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi All,

Do we have a metadata tracker which can help us track what metadata changed?

Please share your suggestions.

    You can give a try. This solution is from Microsoft labs to identify/track all the changes by Sys Admin/customizer when publish customizations.

    RE: Metadata Tracker

    Hi Partner,

    Just share my option on this topic as I also haven't found any metadata tracker to help us track metadata. While I could recommend you to the sample code of Querying metadata and detecting changes from SDK Package which would also get what your want.

    This sample creates an in-memory cache of all option-set option labels for certain entities. Then, a custom entity that contains OptionSet attributes is added and the cache of option-set option labels is updated. Then a single option is added to one of the custom OptionSet attributes and the cache is updated to add it. Finally, the custom entity is deleted and the cache of option-set option labels is again updated to reflect this change.

    You could refer to this official document for more info about this:

    docs.microsoft.com/.../jj863605(v=crm.8)

    Hope it would help.

    Regards

    Johnny
