Hello All,

I would like some advice on creating toast notifications in dynamics 365 unified interface.

I have done some searches in the forum and MS documentation, it seems that there are no out of the box feature that allow me to create toast notification within a solution.

Does this mean that the standard way to create toast notification is using injecting JavaScript to a control I want to have a toast notification as feedback?

Thanks for the help in advance.

Hi Wilson,

There is a new client API that hasn't been documented yet, to display Toast Notifications.

It's a temporary message displayed at the bottom of the current screen.

Example:

I can update this thread once the documentation is ready.

Thank you for your response,

does this mean it is not yet ready to be use yet?

What is the api function for toast notification?

I mean that even though the JavaScript method technically exists to display this type of notification, it is not yet generally available and not documented (so not supported).

What would be your use case?

my use case will be a button triggering an api call that will come back with a response whether if its successful and the message for the toast notification to display.

Thank you

So would the screenshot I shared help (just for the notification format)?

Right now you could also use the setFormNotification method to display a message and clear it after a few seconds, with clearFormNotification.

Yes, the screenshot is the desired result that I want from a toast notification.

Do you have an idea when the api function will be available?

Hey Henry,

SetNotification displays a message on the top of the form, not like the message you already have shown. Can you share your API implemented through Javascript?

Hi Amir,

The addGlobalNotification client API only officially supports "type: 2", which is a message bar notification.
If you change it to "type: 1", it displays a toast notification.

Be aware that because type: 1 isn't documented, it isn't supported and could change without notice.
