Hi Ashish,

You can use sdk.rest library to create a record from java script.

var objectValues= new Object();

objectValues.<fieldName>=value;

SDK.REST.createRecord(objectValues, "<EntityName>", callBackFuction, function (error) { alert(error.message); });

You can write script on contact save and call your script to create custom entity record. you can look for OData designer to write your query, Or Can use SDK library for the same as suggested.

Hi Ashish,

You can create new record of custom entity using OData & Jquery.

As per your requirement, you can set the script "onsave" of contact entity.

Check the following link:

Hi Ashish,

Maybe you can do it like this:

OnSave of the Contact you have to do this code (you need to change the entity name and field to match what you desire).

This uses the XrmServiceToolkit.js to help with the create/update (and more) functions.

//Create Entity var entity = new XrmServiceToolkit.Soap.BusinessEntity("EntityName"); //String entity.attributes["fieldName"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("fieldName").getValue(); //Lookup entity.attributes['fieldName'] = { id : Xrm.Page.getAttribute('fieldName').getValue()[0].id, logicalName : Xrm.Page.getAttribute('fieldName').getValue()[0].entityType, type : 'EntityReference' }; //Bool entity.attributes["fieldName"] = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("fieldName").getValue(); //OptionSetValue entity.attributes["fieldName"] = { value: Xrm.Page.getAttribute("fieldName").getValue(), type: "OptionSetValue" }; //Currency entity.attributes["fieldName"] = { Value: Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("fieldName").getValue() }; //Decimal entity.attributes["fieldName"] = { Value: parseFloat(eval(Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get("fieldName").getValue())) }; var quoteId; quoteId = XrmServiceToolkit.Soap.Create(entity);

You can find this and how to update entity in: https://migsbeja.wordpress.com/2015/02/07/createupdate-entity-using-xrmservicetoolkit-soap/

Miguel

I have client name

A , B , C , D

A - installed my solution

B - Installed my solution

c - installed my solution

D - Installed my solution

then i have given webresource page . (just contact info page )

All client are filled the form .

When A (client ) login into their CRM and open my solution which they installed .whatever contact info A filled which i need to pre populate .

When B (client ) login into their CRM and open my solution which they installed .whatever contact info B filled which i need to pre populate .

When A=C (client ) login into their CRM and open my solution which they installed .whatever contact info C filled which i need to pre populate .

Question : -

if i know any unique id of client only i can query my db and per populate the field . How can i find the unique id of the client ?

since my solution is third party to them . they will install the solution only . what logic should i implement to get unique id of that client ?

Same logic i should apply into getting data also to entity which question i asked previously .

Thanks
