How to – enable marketing interactions in lead and contact timeline – Dynamics 365 Marketing

To view marketing interactions, we need to add a custom connector to the timeline of the lead and the contact form. This step is only required if we are using custom forms and not the out-the-box marketing forms for lead and contact.

The OOB Form already has this connector defined.

Open the form for customization, select the timeline control, scroll down to Advanced >> Additional Settings >> Custom connectors, and click on Add connector.

Specify Constructor and Resource Path and save the record.

Constructor: msdynmkt_DynamicsMktTimelineInteractionAnalytics.TimelineInteractionAnalyticsResource
Resource path: msdynmkt_DynamicsMktTimelineInteractionAnalytics

Save the form and publish it.

We can see the marketing interactions being displayed in the timeline.

Hope it helps..

Use Command checker (ribbondebug=true) to identify the Ribbon Customizations Issue – Dataverse / Dynamics 365

Appending ribbondebug=true to the record’s URL adds the new Command checker button in the command bar, which could help us in troubleshooting any unexpected behavior with ribbon.

Recently we added one enable rule to an existing button (Go Live) in the Customer Journey table. The rule was calling a JavaScript web resource based on the security role assigned to the user hiding or showing the button on the form.

Click on the Command checker to open the window on the side pane, where we can then select our button.

In the command properties tab, we can see our custom enable rule showing an error.

Also here clicking in View rule definition solution layers provides us the detail that this rule has been added as part of an unmanaged layer.

Clicking on the Unmanaged layer further provides us with the definition of the enable rule.

Going back to the error, we figured out that the function was missing from the web resource, and adding the function fixed the issue for us.

Back in the Command checker, we can see the custom Enable Rule getting evaluated correctly.

Check the Troubleshooting Guide

Hope it helps..

Fixed – The product cannot be added because it is not active while creating Quote Product – Dynamics 365 / Dataverse

We got the below error while trying to create a quote product programmatically.

As the error message specifies, this is because we are trying to add/associate a DRAFT product to the Quote Product.

We will get a similar error from the application as well if we try adding a draft product as an existing product to either a quote product or an opportunity product.

Below is the product in the Draft status.

Publish the product to make it Active.

Hope it helps..

Retrieve primary entities along with related entities with one QueryExpression

Retrieve related records for a parent record

It’s possible to get related records of a relationship when we retrieve a parent record using RelatedEntitiesQuery property in the RetrieveRequest. That means you have to construct the RetrieveRequest not using the Retrieve method from the OrganizationServiceProxy class.

InvalidPluginExecutionException error dialog not showing up – Dynamis 365 / Dataverse

One of the reasons why throwing the InvalidPluginExecutionException doesn’t show up error dialog could be that you would have Profiled that step with profile storage as Persist to Entity.
