(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by unbeatable 365

I have used the following code to open but its opening select form that was previously selected by the user already

i have to open randomly by passing its id or something else that can open directly the form which I want to open.

Any advice or help would be great.

function checkbox() {
debugger;
var pageInput = {
pageType: "entityrecord",
entityName: "opportunity",
entityId: "9e0d0283-5bf2-e311-945f-6c3be5a8dd64" //replace with actual ID

};
var navigationOptions = {
target: 2,
height: {value: 80, unit:"%"},
width: {value: 70, unit:"%"},
position: 1
};
Xrm.Navigation.navigateTo(pageInput, navigationOptions).then(
function success() {
// Run code on success
},
function error() {
// Handle errors
}
);
}

    Hi,

    I believe that you should use Xrm.Navigation.openForm() instead of Xrm.Navigation.navigateTo(). In face, openForm method will open a form by passing the form Id as parameter.

    Please refer to the code below: 

    var entityFormOptions = {};
entityFormOptions["entityName"] = "contact";
entityFormOptions["entityId"] = "E14FA993-FF71-EB11-A812-000D3A374418";
//Set your form Id
entityFormOptions["formId"] = "293c878f-f068-40a0-ae48-4297e060871c";
// Open the form.
Xrm.Navigation.openForm(entityFormOptions).then(
    function (success) {
        console.log(success);
    },
    function (error) {
        console.log(error);
    });

    Hi, 

    Yes, you can add some parameters: 

    var entityFormOptions = {};
entityFormOptions["entityName"] = "contact";
entityFormOptions["entityId"] = "E14FA993-FF71-EB11-A812-000D3A374418";
//Set your form Id
entityFormOptions["formId"] = "293c878f-f068-40a0-ae48-4297e060871c";
entityFormOptions["openInNewWindow"] = true;
entityFormOptions["width"] = 800;
entityFormOptions["height"] = 800;


// Open the form.
Xrm.Navigation.openForm(entityFormOptions).then(
    function (success) {
        console.log(success);
    },
    function (error) {
        console.log(error);
    });

    Hi,

    I am using same approch (sending FormId through as an parameter) to open a specific form, however Dynamic takes the user  back to the most recent opened form.

    Do you have any idea what can be done to fix it?
