Power Fx Dynamics 365 Ribbon Editing

We have been relying on Ribbon workbench to add or edit Buttons to Dynamics 365 and I have to admit it has been one of my favorite tool.

Now we have a new tool provided by Microsoft, this is still on Preview mode, here I will be covering how to try the new functionality.

To access the preview please navigate to the following URL https://make.preview.powerapps.com/
For this sample I have created a Solution that contains a model-driven app.


Select your model-driven app in Power Apps and click on the …  and Click on Edit in Preview


Here you will be able to Edit your Model Driven App, navigate to the entity you would like to Add or Edit ribbon, click on the … and click on Edit Command bar (preview)


Here we have the ability on which of the following we would like to edit the ribbon

  1. Main gird
  2. Main form
  3. Sub view
  4. Associated view

For this exercise we will select Main form


One thing to be mindful, we can not edit out of the box buttons yet, I am sure Microsoft will provide an update on that soon.

To add new button, click on New command



You have two ways to add actions

  1. Run Formula (if you have experience with Canvas App this is going to be easy to implement)
  2. Run JavaScript (This one mimics how Ribbon workbench )

Azure DevOps Fork Repos between two Organization

  Azure DevOps Fork Repos between two Organization This weekend I embarked on a topic a bit foreign to myself, on the surface seemed a bit simple. The idea is to fork my Azure DevOps Repo to a different organization and push changes between them. Bad news DevOps doesn’t allow to fork Repos to a different organization, you have only the capability to fork to a different Projects within the same Organization. I’m pretty much sure there are so many other ways to solve this issue, but this is the one that I found to be easy to implement. Import Repo to the new Organization Remember here you have to generate a personal token to be able to import the Repo you have to be a member of the new organization as well This might take a few minutes depending on the size of your project, once its complete you will receive a confirmation email, or just refresh it after few minutes So far all looks good, you can clone the solution in your new Organizati...

XMLHttpRequest vs Xrm.WebApi

  XMLHttpRequest vs Xrm.WebApi If you have written JavaScript code for Dynamics 365 you have seen the use of XMLHttpRequest or Xrm.WebApi to make server-side calls. The question is which one is the right one to use? So, let’s analyze the two types of calls. XMLHtttpRequest 1.        Synchronous a.        Sample Code var req = new XMLHttpRequest(); req.open("GET", Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl() + "/api/data/v9.1/accounts", false ); 2.        Asynchronous a.        Sample Code var req = new XMLHttpRequest(); req.open("GET", Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl() + "/api/data/v9.1/accounts", true ); So, passing true parameter is going to make asynchronous call while passing it false is going to make a Synchronous call. Xrm.WebApi 1.        Asynchronous a.        There is...
