I can't find a way to debug the plugin code of a virtual table. As step is generated by external implementation. I would like to find a way to debug the code in real time. Would anyone have a solution?
I'm using throw error to try to capture data and validate, which is a lot of work.
You can try the approach similar to the one I described in my post - https://butenko.pro/2022/01/03/debugging-custom-api-plugins-using-plugin-registration-tool/

I've edited some existing visual queries of Blog 4.0 application and when I was debugging it - it worked perfectly. But then on page it stopped working. Any attempt to use key with Data like Data["Posts"] raises System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException. App.Query["Blog Posts List"]["Posts"] returns something, but any attempt to access its fields raises another exception (don't remember the name, but it said that there's no such member inside that object).
I didn't rename queries, I didn't change application settings. I just edited logic of 2 queries. I renamed 1 wiring endpoint name across 3 queries in whole chain.
How do I debug it? How can I see what does cshtml receive from database so I don't guess and put my crystal ball away?
In general, App.Query["Name of Query"] will get you the streams of data. You usually need to convert it using AsDynamic() or AsList() to something you can work with.
This should help some; What is Data?
If you're just running into problems with field names, you probably forgot the AsList or AsDynamic, just like #accuraty-jeremy mentioned.
For real debugging, go to insights, you'll see what happens - but in your case it probably won't help, because your working with an object that's not dynamic (so doesn't support .FirstName) until you AsList/AsDynamic it.
My bad: I confused two different files - _List.cshtml and _List Paging.cshtml. So I was searching for an error in the code of wrong file.
i gust curious maybe someone heard about solution how to get Report (SSRS Report) in Plugin (i want to export it in pdf from CRM and save in Sharepoint).
I have tried following solution:
https://community.dynamics.com/crm/f/microsoft-dynamics-crm-forum/247210/how-to-run-the-crm-report-through-sdk?pifragment-97030=1#responses
this one is not working anymore because of authentication. I tried to authentificate my user in WebClient inside plugin but no luck. Maybe someone know how to do it
There is an excellent article/blog posted by Bob Guidinger for Generating Report and sending Email for D365 Online.
Once you get first step running, you can extend it to perform you specific operation.
Blog mentioned about Azure function and plugin (combination).
Scheduling Reports in Dynamics 365 - Part 1
I tried this for one of my project and it worked fine with me. This shall be a bit learning curve if you do not know how to create azure functions and some small parts.
Happy Coding!!
Make sure to upvote, Accept if this helps!!
We are currently using a managed package that generate multiple VFRemoting Operations, each operation has an extensive number of managed package lines with no useful information, I would like to be able to view only the salesforce activities. like Approval processes, trigger, Validation rules, workflows and filter all the managed package lines, is their anyway to achieve that.
Thanks
Modify your debug logs levels, set the items you want to see (Validation, Apex Code, etc) DEBUG set the others to None
Short description
I'm getting used to CakePHP right now and am wondering about how to get more debug-information about what is happening inside the framework.
Let me please explain my situation a little more detailed
As you know CakePHP does a lot for you without putting you into the need to write additional code. One example is the handling of models.
I just created a model User and added validation-rules (no other methods). As described in the API methods like save will just work.
After that I created the needed controller and view to add a new user. When I try to add a user from the view I just receive the flash-message The user could not be created. Please, try again. No validation-violations are flashed.
I also did set the debug-level to 2: Configure::write('debug', 2); but do not receive any errors. The error.log inside \tmp\logs is also empty.
I really do want to learn how to solve those issues in the future.
So what else can I do to debug / display inner processes of cake?
Thank you very much for your help!
DebugKit is an official plugin that gives you lots of information on the request, queries and variables produced by Cake:
https://github.com/cakephp/debug_kit
You can also use trace() and other methods in the Debugger to show what is being executed in the background:
http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/development/debugging.html
Use a PHP IDE with an integrated debugger. That will allow you to follow execution line by line as it is executed and even inspect variable values as you go. Netbeans is a free one.
We're using CRM On-Demand for our Service Group and I'm running into an application limitation and am wondering if anyone has a workaround or just some general ideas on how to accomplish our goal.
In the application, our major focus is around the Service Request and driving for users to create Tasks for all Activities related to working towards closure. For example, a customer calls in and we need a technical resource to make a return call to diagnose the issue in detail, so a Task is assigned to that resource. Once that Task has been marked as completed, I'd like the Status to be updated. I tried creating a workflow using JoinFieldValue(), which wasn't working. I tried a more basic approach and tried to just have a field on the Service Request be populated with the Status of the Task, but that did not work either.
Upon further investigation in the Help File, there is a relationship from the Activity object to the Service Request object, but not one the other way.
So, has anyone else run into this limitation and found some other method to have a Status change on the Task update the Status of a Service Request?
(Also, I'd like to try and avoid writing a custom web service for this purpose, which is why I'm trying to use the tools in the app)
Thanks in advance for any ideas!
actually, if I well understood your issue is related on workflow cross object.
OCOD doesn't manage this type of workflow when you need to use workaround.
In order to cover a cross object worklflow you have many possibilities:
webservices as you said, but you could imagine a js code that will run WS and hosted directly into OCOD (in R19 you could hoste that in Client Side extension). That could be a good solution
Another one could be using Report with a custom look up functionnality with the usage of "Callback" function
I would prefer the 1st solution.
