Hi community,

Is there a way to add notes with attachments to an custom entity?

I am using the below code from (Create Notes with Attachment using Web API in Dynamics 365 - Nebulaa IT Solutions | Nebulaa IT Solutions)
var note = {};

note.subject = "Notes Subject";

note.notetext = "Notes Text";

note.filename = "FileName.txt";

note.documentbody = "Base64String";

note["objectid_contact@odata.bind"] = "/contacts(00000000-0000-0000-000000000000)";

Xrm.WebApi.createRecord("annotation", note).then(

function success(result) {

alert("Success");

},

function(error) {

alert(error.message);

});

But i get error Xrm error.

    Hi,

    After testing, I think you are getting an error in getting the contactId.

    I have changed your code and you can add it to the onload event.
    This code now dynamically gets the guid for the current contact and then creates a note with an attachment. I have successfully run this code.



    The code is as follows:
    function createNoteWithCurrentEntity(executionContext) {
        var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
        var note = {};
        note.subject = "Notes Subject";
        note.notetext = "Notes Text";
        note.filename = "FileName.txt";
        note.documentbody = "Base64String";
        var entityId = formContext.data.entity.getId().replace(/[{}]/g, "");
        note["objectid_contact@odata.bind"] = "/contacts(" + entityId + ")";
        Xrm.WebApi.createRecord("annotation", note).then(
        function success(result) {
        alert("Success");
        },
        function(error) {
        alert(error.message);
        });
    }

    Hi,
     
    This is the JavaScript code registered in the Onload event.
