Adding Parameter to Custom Action, Metadata isn't updated.

Posted on by anonsgate 422

When I add/remove a parameter from a custom action in crm, the metadata isn't updated. I also verified with /api/data/v8.2/$metadata to make sure. Is there any way to refresh it? If possible, not a way that would require me to restart a service on the server, I don't have access to it.

    Sorry for the delay I didn't have time to test.

    Publish All Customization does not work. By that I mean it doesn't refresh the metadata. To reproduce the problem :

    1.Add a parameter to a Custom Action

    2.Activate Custom Action

    3.Browse Metadata to make sure the parameter is there at  /api/data/v8.2/$metadata

    4.Remove the parameter

    5.Activate Action

    6.Publish All Customization

    7.Browse to Metadata and the parameter is still there  /api/data/v8.2/$metadata

    Hi anonsgate,

    Usually the CRM Metadata Cache should be rebuilt after you publish all customizations.

    Have you tried that?

    You could also make a small customizations and publish - to be sure that there are some changes. Is the action also updated afterwards?

    Regards,

    Radu
