xrm.navigation.openform is not working in unified interface

Hello All,

I have 2 forms(Form A and Form B) in Lead entity. Whenever user click the 'New' button to create new record in lead entity, a popup will ask the user to open Form A or Form B. I have created a HTML dialog and call it on click of 'New' button. On the user selection I'm opening either the Form A or Form B.

This functionality is working good in classic UI but not working in UCI.

I am using the below code snippet:

openSelectedLeadForm: function () {
        debugger;
        var iFrameParameters = Alert.getIFrameWindow();
        var formA = iFrameParameters.formA;
        var entityFormOptions = {};
        var formParameters = {};
        entityFormOptions["entityName"] = "lead";

        if (formA) {
            formParameters["formid"] = "JIJ85HUG-J8G3-9865-NKLS-KJOG8J49DM4K";
            Xrm.Navigation.openForm(entityFormOptions, formParameters).then(
            function (success) {
                alert("Success");
            },
            function (error) {
                alert("Error : "   error.message);
            });
        }
        else {
            formParameters["formid"] = "KIOEJID3-8D2H-KJ4H-LK4D-KJIDG49XOK4F";
            Xrm.Navigation.openForm(entityFormOptions, formParameters).then(
            function (success) {
                alert("Success");
            },
            function (error) {
                alert("Error : "   error.message);
            });
        }
    },

Please tell me am i missing any change required it to work in UCI.

Hello,

I'm pretty sure that Xrm.Navigation.openForm works fine so the reason not in this functionality so I assume that following piece of code doesn't work in UCI:

var iFrameParameters = Alert.getIFrameWindow();

var formA = iFrameParameters.formA;

Try to comment this code out and use just a single piece like:

formParameters["formid"] = "JIJ85HUG-J8G3-9865-NKLS-KJOG8J49DM4K";

Xrm.Navigation.openForm(entityFormOptions, formParameters).then(

function (success) {

alert("Success");

},

function (error) {

alert("Error : " + error.message);

});

I'm pretty sure it would work.

I strongly believe that the AlertJS library doesn't play well with the new UCI. As called out in this thread, the Xrm.Navigation.openForm method does work as expected in both legacy Web client and the new UCI.

i had the same problem, i was using the same code as yours and it was working correctly before, i think there was an update lately or something that s why is not working anymore, so i had to put the formId in the entityformoptions as it was described the in the documentation:

this the code i'm using now : entityFormOptions["formId"] = "4397A629-6A0A-4E65-986E-8386BE85BE21";
