FaultException – RetrieveMultiple: GetEntityDataByFetchSearch while using Configuration Migration Tool – Dataverse / Dynamics 365

While recently trying to move configuration data using the Configuration Migration tool, we got the below error.

FaultException`1 - RetrieveMultiple : GetEntityDataByFetchSearch |=> 'msdyncrm_segment' entity doesn't contain attribute with Name = 'msdynmkt_name' and NameMapping = 'Logical'. MetadataCacheDetails: ProviderType=Dynamic, StandardCache=True, IsLoadedInStagedContext = False, Timestamp=65138568, MinActiveRowVersion=65138568, MetadataInstanceId=53062908, LastUpdated=2023-04-20 07:29:48.697, OrgId=f69f1cea-23d9-446f-9130-ed45ce666b28

Error : Message: 'msdyncrm_segment' entity doesn't contain attribute with Name = 'msdynmkt_name' and NameMapping = 'Logical'.

This was because we had the wrong filter condition applied to that table/entity.

Updating the filter to use correct attribute fixed the issue.

Hope it helps..

Notes Control – Dynamics 365

We now have new Notes control for the Case table.

The new notes control allows us to associate/create note without the need to create the case record first.

Here we are adding the Notes control in our Case form.

Specify Pre Create Notes Id (Text) as Table Column for Bound Attribute.

Save and publish the changes.

On creating the record we can see notes added to the timelines.

Also, we can observe that the control now shows – “No Data Available”.

In the case of the Enhanced Case Form, we have a script that hides that section after creation.

Due Open Activities Control – Dynamics 365

The due open activities control shows the activities due today or overdue. It is added by default in the Enhanced Case form but can be added in the forms of other tables.

Hovering over it shows the details of the records.

Clicking on it opens the Associated Activity view (tab).

Check Show related records, set table to Activities (Regarding) and Default view to Open Activities.

Set Static value Property as navActivities to open the Activities tab on click of the link.

Save and Publish the changes, and we can see the Due Date Activities control in our Contact form.

Attachment Control – Dynamics 365

The new attachment control allows users to upload , download, delete, and view attachments that are added to a table through notes or emails or directly (for Case Table).

Below we have 2 attachments added to the case record.

We can see both the attachments there in the Attachments control along with an additional attachment directly added (Direct Upload) .

We can perform a search as well as change the view.

The Tile view –

The Delete option is only available in the case of files directly uploaded not the ones showing up from notes / emails.

For the Case table, the table column property is mapped to the Pre Create Entity Attachments Id field, which allows uploading attachments even before saving or creating the case record. (This is only available for the Case table)

Below we have uploaded attachments to a new case record.

We can add the Attachment Control to other tables as well.

Below we are adding it to the Contact form.

For tables other than Case, it can only be used to View the Attachments, we do not get the option to upload there.

Multiple ways to call azure function in Dynamics 365.

Dynamic's 365 Blogs

Nowadays, multiple organizations are storing their data everywhere, it is in Cloud or On-premise and it is increasing day by day with the help of internet connectivity. Organizations are asking their developers to respond with highly-scalable solutions. Solutions that often require developers to implement on-demand or scheduled batch jobs to reconcile transactions, ingest and process data, or react to events in real-time. To accomplish this huge demand we have Azure functions.

Azure Functions is a serverless compute service that lets you run event-triggered code without having to explicitly provision or manage infrastructure.

Today we will see how to call an azure function from the below components.
