There is 1:N relationship with my Main entity to related entity. On the form when I will select "knowledge Level" i.e. option set from Knowledge(main) entity based on the level, benefits from "Knowledge Benefits" entity would display on the form. I want to implement this by using a plugin for CRM online.

Yes, you are right. I am using the plugin because I want to create records in the backend based on a particular selection.
by selecting any value from options set all the related entity data will get populate in subgrid and one record will get created in the 3rd entity. which will store account id, Knowledge level, and respective knowledge benefits.
Current plugin is doing the same, but in that case, we were using one entity records and referring via lookup. here, I want to use options set instead of entity records.
I am not sure your question is entirely clear in that case.
Plugins work for Server Side. JavaScript for Client side.
If you want to display records in subgrid that is client side.
If you want to create records in the backend based on a particular selection, that can be back-end code using Actions/Plugins/Workflows/etc...
Can you please provide a detailed explanation of what exactly you are trying to accomplish and what the plugin that you are trying to replace does?
Thanks.
I have to make changes in existing plugin which was developed by someone else. Its functionality is on selection of entity record you will get all the records from related entity. But, now instead of using entity record, requirement is to select value from option set and then populated related records for same.
One other option that you have is create the Knowledge Benefits subgrid in a separate tab, and hide + collapse the tab (default setting).
When the user selects Knowledge from the option set, make the tab visible and expand it, which will show the knowledge benefits subgrid (on-demand).
This would probably be the easiest solution with the least amount of code.
Hope this helps.
From what I can gather, it sounds like you are trying to filter a subgrid? This would be done by javascript rather than plugin but, as per this question, is not supported.
