CRM Online - entityimage not working in SSRS

$
0
0

So, in the latest and greatest CRM you can get access to the Entity Image using “special attributes” within fetch:

<fetch distinct="false" no-lock="false" mapping="logical">  <entity name="account">    <attribute name="entityimage" />    <attribute name="entityimage_url" />  </entity></fetch>


The first is supposed to return a byte array… doesn’t work in SSRS though for some reason.

The second does indeed return the URL… but if I try to add it as an external image my entire report blows up (i.e. it’s not just the image that won’t display, the entire report won’t render).

I’ve tried all sorts of things from relative and absolute URLs:

/Image/download.aspx?Entity=account&Attribute=entityimage&Id=d5b8ab69-9e9a-e511-80d5-6c3be5becdb4&Timestamp=635991727111324831

Vs

https://[crmonlineurl]/Image/download.aspx?Entity=account&Attribute=entityimage&Id=d5b8ab69-9e9a-e511-80d5-6c3be5becdb4&Timestamp=635991727111324831

Neither work in an image. If you navigate to the second URL you will indeed get the image. But CRM just refuses to render the report if I point an image at any of the above. Even if I manually type in the above as the image URL it will not render the report.

Has anyone seen this?

Or has anyone ever got a byte array returning in a CRM Online SSRS report?

Additional notes:

I discovered that CRM does not like distinct=true for entityimage. I still only get the text "System.Byte[]" back as opposed to an actual byte array.


[CRM 2015] Data Import not recognizing accented characters

$
0
0

Hi,

While doing a data import, I've noticed that CRM is not recognizing accented characters (French in specific) and throws an error thinking that two similar records are the same.  For example, if I have two records with the names:

Record 1: abcde
Record 2: abcdé

The data import would consider these two characters the same and throws an error saying the two records are duplicates but in fact they are unique.  The French language pack is installed and other records with accents are able to import into the system correctly.

Is there a way to resolve this?

Thanks.

Error Closing Opportunity as Won. User needs ReadQuote

Hi,

We are running Dynamics CRM 2016 On Premise. Our users are receiving the following error when trying to close a opportunity as won, "Principal user (Id=126b7636-2719-e611-80f4-0050569e0ec4, type=8) is missing prvReadQuote privilege (Id=00a8d04e-ede7-4884-ae18-09c6e55344ca). We are NOT using the quotes functionality so I was wondering if there was a setting I could turn off so that it does not check for quotes when closing the opportunity. I would rather not add Read quote permissions to their role as this is a section of the application we are not using.

Thank you for reading

Kyle

Task and Phone Activity Created through the Social Pane CRM 2013

$

Hi there,

I have a plugin customization that updates the organization field on the activity
entity if the Regarding field has a parent organization. The plugin gets fired
on the PostCreate and looks for if the Regarding Object Id is populated and
then gets parent organization id and populates the activity entity. The plugin
works fine when creating Task, Phone from Activity Form but not from the Social
Pane on the Contact entity.  My plugin is looking for regardingobjectid
field. When Task or Phone Activities are created from the Social Pane it looks
like the regardingobjectid is not been passed in the CRM pipeline.

What am I
missing? Here is my plugin code

private
static string Customer = "regardingobjectid";


     private static string ParentCustomer =
"my_organizationid";


     public override void HandleAfterOpCreate()


     {


         try


         {


             if (!
(this.PluginExecutionContext.PrimaryEntityName.ToLower().Equals(Xrm.Task.EntityLogicalName)
||


                   
this.PluginExecutionContext.PrimaryEntityName.ToLower().Equals(Xrm.PhoneCall.EntityLogicalName)
||


                   
this.PluginExecutionContext.PrimaryEntityName.ToLower().Equals(Xrm.Email.EntityLogicalName)
||


                   
this.PluginExecutionContext.PrimaryEntityName.ToLower().Equals(Xrm.Appointment.EntityLogicalName)))


                 return;


             base.HandleAfterOpCreate();


             if (this.PluginExecutionContext.MessageName
== MessageName.Create)


             {


                 if
(this.InputTargetEntity.Contains(Customer))


                 {


                     var
id = this.OutputID;


                     var
customerId = ((EntityReference)this.InputTargetEntity.Attributes[Customer]).Id;


                   
 ActivityService.UpdateActivity(id, customerId, this.OrganizationService,
this.TracingService, this.PluginExecutionContext.PrimaryEntityName.ToLower());


                 }


             }


         }


         catch (Exception ex)


         {


           
 this.TracingService.Trace(this.ToString() + " {0}",
"Exception:  {0}", ex.ToString());


             throw;


         }

Suggestions for using OOB entities to represent laboratory samples and analysis

$

Hi.

I'm customizing Dynamics CRM for a laboratory that receives samples from customers for analysis. We receive the samples, log them in by ID, analyze each sample, report results per sample, and charge the customer per sample.

I'd like to use OOB entities as far as possible for this scenario. Do you have suggestions? I've already looked quickly at Cases and Orders, but just scratching the surface so far.

Thank you for the help!

Reusing OrganizationServiceProxy

Hi, although I found an old post about this https://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/93d273f7-6846-473b-8561-2c1c50ad28e2/connection-pool-for-organizationserviceproxy?forum=crmdevelopment, I am not sure it is the right approach now in CRM 2016. I am iterating through a csv file and running a call to CRM API for every row. I want to reuse a proxy object (I don't think running every row with same instance of the proxy is a good idea) and I wonder if I instantiate a new ManagedTokenOrganizationServiceProxy(from sdk sample) every time, I don't gain anything, right? Should I rather instantiate one time and call RenewTokenIfRequired method (on AutoRefreshSecurityToken class also from sdk samples) before every call to web service?

As CrmConnection class is replaced by CrmServiceClient from Microsoft.Xrm.Tooling.Connector namespace, and as I see it creates OrganizationServiceProxy internally, is it something here I could use for this scenario?

Thanks in advance

Authenticating a 3rd party app to CRM 2016

Hello everyone

Please can you point me to any resources that could help me with this scenario.  In particular I'm looking for a log-in solution.

Background

  • I have a mobile app that needs to allow the user to interact with their CRM Contact record.  Create and Update functions.
  • The mobile app will be used by multiple contacts, each one will only be able to see their own contact record.
  • The mobile app is written in HTML5 (Intel XDK) and will run on IOS or Android phones.
  • The mobile app user must enter a user name and password to gain access to their CRM contact record
  • The target CRM platform is 2016 on-Premise (but will move to Microsoft hosted online within 6-9 months)

Requirement

  • user enters username and password on the mobile app
  • User must be able to self manage the password (i.e. send password reset to their registered email address)
  • The application must be able to authenticate user against a single contact record in the CRM system

I'm looking for the simplest AND secure way to achieve this.  For on-premise assume that an ADFS server is available.  Please can you point me to any ready made plug-ins or solutions, or any articles I can refer to (C# .net, CRM Web Services  and JavaScript) that will help me achieve this.  I Will be happy to pay a fee if you already have an elegant solution I can quickly integrate.

Many thanks

Alan

Hello CRM Team,

We are facing the below issue when the Campaign response is auto created by system. The marketing list member(type- lead) lets say 'Lead1', who we have selected has email id which is also exists in another lead record 'Lead2'. When Lead1 replies to the campaign email, the campaign response email is created with "from" as Lead2 instead of Lead1.

This is not only happing for this case, but also when another record exists with same email id in other marketing list members- Account and Contact.

Please suggest some solution for this issue.

CRM: Campaign response code

$

Hello CRM Team,

Can you please help me in understanding the Campaign response code types usage? In Campaign response, the following response code types are available.

  1. Interested
  2. Not Interested
  3. Do not send marketing materials
  4. Error

I was able to check the usage of the following two types: Interested and Do not send marketing materials.

When Campaign response is auto created by system for the reply email of Campaign, I noticed that it creates with the response code type "Interested" and "Do not send marketing materials" when customer unsubscribes the email through unsubscribe link sent in the campaign email.

But I'm not able to find out when "Not interested" and "Error" are used.

Kindly help me to understand the same.

Thanks.
