How do I know Server API URL to perform CRUD Operations in On Premise version of CRM?

Posted on by Community Member

Hi,

There is Server Root URL that I use to perform CRUD operation in CRM usign WebAPI concept. But today I face problem where I was trying to perform select query in On Primise Account(v8.2).

I use this query to perform any type of transactions:

var serverUrl = location.protocol + "//" + location.host;

var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.open("GET", serverUrl + "/api/data/v8.0/" + Query, false);


Above way was working fine but today I have found issue while testing in On Primise Account. Above URL didn't work.

Difference I have seen in Settings --> Customize --> Developer Resource

1- On Primise having Organization name and Server Root URL was like: https://internalcrm.abc.net:333/MyOrganization/api/data/v8.2/

    Online doesn't have such Organization name and Server Root URL was like: https://bondltd.api.crm.dynamics.com/api/data/v8.2/

I have tried to use Server Root URL of OnLine. It was working but Server Root URL of On Primise but it didn't give me any data.

Can anybody please suggest me what ServerURL I should pass to perform operation in CRM On Primize?

Please let me know if any one required more information.

    Hi

    In javascript, you want to use the client URL function Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl() to retrieve the actual URL that was used for accessing CRM.

    So you would have var serverUrl = Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl();

    Do note that from CRM 9.0 and forward, that function has been moved to reside within the global context Xrm.Utility.getGlobalContext

    Thanks Daniel,

    I think above solution will work fine in Javascript. Is there any way to get serverUrl in HTML WebResource?

    Please guide.

    For now you can still include the ClientGlobalContext to gain access. See the section "ClientGlobalContext.js.aspx" in msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg328541.aspx

    Hi Daniel,

    Thank you very much.

    I hope Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl(); this will also work to access webresource.

    Currently I access webresource same way as I define in question: serverUrl + "/WebResources/name"

    I hope I can access webresource too by your solution.

    Let me know if I need to access webresources different way in On Premises.
