Javascript to update date field of selected records from contact view into current date.

Hello CS Experts,

How are you? Here I am again asking for your help.

First, thank you for all your help in my previous post.

Now, I have a new requirement to update a date field into current date of records which are selected from contact main view. The update will trigger when the custom button below is clicked. The button gets visible only when at least 1 record is selected from the view.

How do I write the javascript code for this?

Kind regards,

Hi Jolas365 ,

You can create JS WebResource to update selected records and call JS function in ribbon button command. You can set enable rule for ribbon button to hide show button based on record selection.

Refer below links to get selected record GUIDs in JS function, and update records using GUIDs in JS:

Refer below links to show ribbon button on selection of at least one record from grid:
