What is the entity name for Document Templates in CRM?

Posted on by

Hello,

There is a scenario where I need to get list of Document Templates(Word Templates) uploaded for user's selection.

I am not able to see that entity under Customization. Not even, I am getting that in New Field Lookup type.

Can anyone please help to create lookup field for Document Templates entity?

    Its a system entity so you will be restricted in what you can do to it. I dont understand what you are trying to achieve but the UI wont allow you add fields. etc to a system entity

    Please look at my screen shot below. It is not displaying this entity in the lookup selection.

    It should be personaldocumenttemplate based on the advanced find FetchXml

    Joe

    <fetch version="1.0" output-format="xml-platform" mapping="logical" distinct="false">

     <entity name="personaldocumenttemplate">

       <attribute name="documenttype" />

       <attribute name="name" />

       <attribute name="modifiedon" />

       <attribute name="modifiedby" />

       <order attribute="documenttype" descending="false" />

       <order attribute="name" descending="false" />

     </entity>

    </fetch>

    \Joe, thank you for your response.

    I am looking for the entity name because I need to select that as lookup in another entity. I am not even finding Personal Document Templates in selection for creating Dialog like below - which I had created for Mail Merge Templates.
