Examples

The following examples illustrate the syntax of the three custom action types. The first example extends the Customer Card page with a promoted action that runs a Power Automate flow that has the flow ID 00001111-aaaa-2222-bbbb-3333cccc4444.

pageextension 50100 CustomerCardExt extends "Customer Card"
{
    actions
    {
        
        addlast(processing)
        {
            customaction(MyFlowAction)
            {
                ApplicationArea = All;
                CustomActionType = Flow;
                FlowId = '00001111-aaaa-2222-bbbb-3333cccc4444';
                FlowEnvironmentId = 'Default-44445555-eeee-6666-ffff-7777aaaa8888';
            }
        }
        addfirst(Promoted)
        {
            actionref(MyFlowPromoted; MyFlowAction)
            {
            }
        }

    }
}

This next code example extends the Customer Card page with a promoted action that triggers opening a specific Power Automate template wizard directly. The FlowTemplateId property specifies, which template wizard to open.

pageextension 50100 CustomerCardExt extends "Customer Card"
{
    actions
    {
        
        addlast(processing)
        {
            customaction(MyFlowAction)
            {
                ApplicationArea = All;
                CustomActionType = FlowTemplate;
                FlowTemplateId = '00001111-aaaa-2222-bbbb-3333cccc4444';
                FlowCaption = 'Create a Power Automate flow using a template';
            }
        }
        addfirst(Promoted)
        {
            actionref(MyFlowPromoted; MyFlowAction)
            {
            }
        }

    }
}

This third code example likewise extends the Customer Card page with a promoted action, this time it triggers opening the Power Automate template gallery wizard for the user to create a new Flow from a selection of templates. The FlowTemplateCategoryName property sets the category used to filter the list of Power Automate templates shown in the template gallery.

pageextension 50100 CustomerCardExt extends "Customer Card"
{
    actions
    {
        
        addlast(processing)
        {
            customaction(MyFlowAction)
            {
                ApplicationArea = All;
                CustomActionType = FlowTemplateGallery;
                FlowTemplateCategoryName = 'd365bc_approval_generalJournal';
                FlowCaption = 'Select and create a Power Automate flow using a template';
            }
        }
        addfirst(Promoted)
        {
            actionref(MyFlowPromoted; MyFlowAction)
            {
            }
        }

    }
}
