I have a function to set a lookup field which works for the classic version of the form but not in the unified interface version.

This error is thrown in UI: UciError: Value should be of type: entityType: Parameter Name: value[0].entityType

The error appears to be thrown in one of the UCI scripts:

var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
var result = XrmServiceToolkit.Soap.Fetch(fetchXml);

if (result.length > 0) {
caseManagerTeamId = result[0].attributes["ofs_team"].id;
caseManagerTeamName = result[0].attributes["ofs_team"].name;
}

setLookupField(formContext, "ofs_casemanagerteam", caseManagerTeamId, caseManagerTeamName, "Team");

Thanks, that's the answer - don't use "Team", use "team". In the client scripts use lowercased entity names.

Fantastic, thank you Andrew! Oddly enough, this worked in the classic view.
