Microsoft Dynamics 365 Extensions Cookbook

Overview of this book

Microsoft Dynamics 365 is a powerful tool. It has many unique features that empower organisations to bridge common business challenges and technology pitfalls that would usually hinder the adoption of a CRM solution. This book sets out to enable you to harness the power of Dynamics 365 and cater to your unique circumstances. We start this book with a no-code configuration chapter and explain the schema, fields, and forms modeling techniques. We then move on to server-side and client-side custom code extensions. Next, you will see how best to integrate Dynamics 365 in a DevOps pipeline to package and deploy your extensions to the various SDLC environments. This book also covers modern libraries and integration patterns that can be used with Dynamics 365 (Angular, 3 tiers, and many others). Finally, we end by highlighting some of the powerful extensions available. Throughout we explain a range of design patterns and techniques that can be used to enhance your code quality; the aim is that you will learn to write enterprise-scale quality code.

Debugging your JavaScript with Chrome


Given that Dynamics 365 is cross-browser compatible, developers can also debug their client-side code using Google Chrome. This recipe will cover a similar scenario to the previous one, except, the debugging will be done using Google Chrome.

Getting ready

Similar to the previous recipe, you'll need a form that calls a custom JavaScript function. You can use the first recipe in this chapter as an example. Of course, you'll also need a Google Chrome browser.

How to do it...

  1. Navigate to an entity that has a form that uses your JavaScript using Google Chrome, in our example, Sales | Graduation Details.
  2. Open an existing record by double-clicking a record in the list, or create a new one by clicking on the + New option.
  3. Press F12 on your keyboard or Ctrl + Shift + I. Alternatively, go to your Chrome menu and navigate to More tools | Developer tools.
  4. Select the Sources tab, and then look for your file in the left navigation Sources list or press Ctrl + P on your keyboard...
