Hi,

Is there anyway I can find out the business unit record GUID? In other form, I can find the export to Excel button which I can find the field in the hidden column. But I cannot find it on the business unit form.

Thanks,

Hi Yuji,

Open Advanced Find. Select Business Unit. Click Export to Excel. The Column A will have the GUID. Note: You'll have unhide or drag the columns out.

RE: GUID for business units

You can open each Business Unit and find GUID in the URL. e.g.

/edit.aspx?id=%7b99613988-F8EF-E611-8120-C4346BDDC151%7d

The value between id=%7b and %7d is GUID.

Press F12 to open the developer console, Click the Console tab, and in the bottom right, next to the >> type in:

Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId()
