Hi,

What is in your solution? Your solution must contain at least one entity or the ApplicationRibbon component.

Also, your solution should not contain many elements, otherwise ribbonworkbench would have trouble loading it.

Try creating a new solution - I usually create a solution per entity and name it <Ribbon Workbench - entityname>. Add the existing entity that you want to adjust the Ribbon for. Do not add any sub components of the entity. Save the solution.

Now try opening the solution in Ribbon Workbench.

Ribbon workbench can have problems opening a solution with more than 3-4 entities or many subcomponents. Try keeping it simple with just one entity only per solution.

Hi Partner,

The error dialog means that the RibbonWorkBench tool you are using is latest version(3.1.443.1), The latest version will now perform checks on the solution before it loads it.

“There are no entities in this solution” error means that need you add at least one entity to the solution, can you share which components you have added?

Also, you need notice following other points, otherwise, other errors will appear:

--You don’t have to add any entity metadata or assets or form in the solution except the entity itself only.

--Other errors:

Hi MicroDynamicalCRM

Try adding only entity without any assets or metadata to solution. Uncheck "Include entity metadata" and "add all assests" when adding entities and its preferable to keep the no of entities low.

I have seen instances where Ribbon workbench will fail to load if an entity contains assests like views, fields forms etc.
