Hi,

I'm new on Dynamics 365, and I still don't succeed in retrieving my option set text/values.

I would like display the options by using a web resource searching in an option set the options available.

But after some work, I still don't succeed.

<script>
var attribute = Xrm.Page.getAttribute('new_optionset_prenom');
var optiontable = attribute.getOptions();
var i = 0;
	for (i in optiontable)
        {
		document.getElementById("selectForm").options[document.getElementById("selectForm").options.length] = 
                new Option(optiontable[i], i);

}
</script>

I imagined that optiontable was a table of object for every option, but I don't succeed in manipulate it.

In the end I would like to get an exemple like that :

because my option set has some name inside.

thank you for your help !

regards

RE: Display a <select> by retrieving option set in a web resource

Hi,

You try writing a javascript function in the script and call this function on the load of the body of the HTML web resource as shown below.

<script> function onBodyLoad(){ debugger; var optionsetLabel = vals[0]; console.log('optionSet name :', optionsetLabel); //champ CRM var fieldcrm = vals[1]; console.log('field of the crm :', fieldcrm); var attribute = window.parent.Xrm.Page.getAttribute(optionsetLabel); var optiontable = attribute.getOptions(); var dropdown = document.getElementById("selectForm"); var i = 0; for (i in optiontable) { var text = optiontable[i].text; var value = optiontable[i].value; var option = document.createElement("option"); option.text = text; option.value=value; // or you can set i instead if you want dropdown.add(option); } } </script> <body onload = "onBodyLoad()" > <select multiple id="selectForm"> </select> </body>

You could now try debugging the code using developer tools.

Hope this helps.

Thank your for your help !

Unfortunately, didn't succeed in retrieving the options.

I really don't know what is the problem. I'm using a web resource html and the "console.log(arg); " even doesn't appear in the console part of F12. I think this is because of the web resource html. So the browser doesn't access to those variable.

here is my code in the web resource html :

<script> var optionsetLabel = vals[0]; console.log('optionSet name :', optionsetLabel); //champ CRM var fieldcrm = vals[1]; console.log('field of the crm :', fieldcrm); var attribute = window.parent.Xrm.Page.getAttribute(optionsetLabel); var optiontable = attribute.getOptions(); var dropdown = document.getElementById("selectForm"); var i = 0; for (i in optiontable) { var text = optiontable[i].text; var value = optiontable[i].value; var option = document.createElement("option"); option.text = text; option.value=value; // or you can set i instead if you want dropdown.add(option); } </script> <body> <select multiple id="selectForm"> </select> </body>

Hi,

If you are using this javascript inside an HTML web resource, it should be as follows.

var attribute = window.parent.Xrm.Page.getAttribute('new_optionset_prenom');

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Since you are inside a web resource you will have to use the word parent like below:

var attribute = parent.Xrm.Page.getAttribute('new_optionset_prenom');

Then modify the code like below:

var attribute = Xrm.Page.getAttribute('new_customerseverity'); var optiontable = attribute.getOptions(); var dropdown = document.getElementById("selectForm"); for (var i = 0; i < optiontable.length; i++) { var text = optiontable[i].text; var value = optiontable[i].value; var option = document.createElement("option"); option.text = text; option.value=value; // or you can set i instead if you want dropdown.add(option); }
