I am trying smart buttons in ribbon workbench to trigger a workflow. The functionality works fine but I am not able to refresh the page with callback javascript function.

try this line of code

Xrm.Utility.openEntityForm(Xrm.Page.data.entity.getEntityName(), Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId());

Callback function has an extra space at the start and is missing a semicolon at the end

Xrm.Page.data.refresh(false);

try this this first to test

alert('test callback');

Hi Martin,

You could refresh the form both the way using

Xrm.Page.data.refresh();

Or

Xrm.Utility.openEntityForm(Xrm.Page.data.entity.getEntityName(), Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId());

Please have a look below article which might help you to select as per your requirements.

In addition you can also try with this-

location.reload();

Hi matin2000,

I have recently implemented this and added the below code for refresh. The cathc here is that it just refreshes the data so you won't be able to see it happing if the data is not changing after running the workflow. In my case, I built it for lead qualification process so status was changing to qualified once it ran. I also added an alert to ensure that the workflow is executed.

Xrm.Page.data.refresh();Xrm.Utility.alertDialog("Lead qualification process is now completed!!!");

Hope this helps.

Hi all,

since "Xrm.Page" is now deprecated, the refresh of the form cannot be done in these ways:

- Xrm.Page.data.refresh()

- Xrm.Utility.openEntityForm (Xrm.Page.data.entity.getEntityName (), Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId ());

So how do I get the formContext in the "Callback Javascript" section in order to use most up-to-date function: formContext.data.refresh (true) ?

In Ribbon Workbench the formContext is obtained from the PrimaryControl parameter, but how do you pass and read that parameter in the Javascript Callback?

In debug, the Callback Function is an anonymous function:

In console, if I try to access PrymaryControl I get an error:

Thanks in advance!
