RE: Unable to Add Custom View in Lookup

Hi Mohammed Sharique,

Try the code below.

// Change the entity from Account to Contact. var control = Xrm.Page.getControl("lookupfieldname"); control.getAttribute().setLookupTypes(["contact"]); // Add the custom view for the lookup field Xrm.Page.getControl("contact").addCustomView(viewId, entityName, viewDisplayName, fetchXml, layoutXml, true);

Hope this helps.
