The parameters can be table columns with default values that are set on new forms (see Set column values using parameters passed to a form), or custom parameters that are accessed on the form using formContext.data.attributes (see Configure a form to accept custom querystring parameters, and formContext.data). Invalid parameters will cause an error.

entityName String (Optional) The logical name of the table to be made available in the custom page via Param("entityName").
recordId String (Optional) ID of the table record to be made available in the custom page via Param("recordId").

The navigationOptions object contains the following values.

Name Type Description
target Number Specify 1 to open the page inline; 2 to open the page in a dialog.
Also, rest of the values (width, height, and position) are valid only if you have specified 2 in this value (open page in a dialog).
Note: Entity lists can only be opened inline; entity records and web resources can be opened either inline or in a dialog.
width Number or Object (Optional) The width of dialog. To specify the width in pixels, just type a numeric value. To specify the width in percentage, specify an object of type SizeValue with the following properties:
- value: The numerical value of type Number.
- unit: The unit of measurement of type String. Specify % or px. Default value is px.

Return Value

Returns a promise. The value passed when the promise resolves is dependent on the target:

  • inline: Promise resolves right away, and does not return any value.

  • dialog: Promise resolves when the dialog is closed. An object is passed only if the pageType = entityRecord and you opened the form in create mode. The object has a savedEntityReference array with the following properties to identify the table record created:

    • entityType: The logical name of the table.
    • id: A string representation of a GUID value for the record.
    • name: The primary column value of the record displayed or created.

Example

Example 1: Open account list

var pageInput = {
    pageType: "entitylist",
    entityName: "account"
};
Xrm.Navigation.navigateTo(pageInput).then(
    function success() {
            // Run code on success
    },
    function error() {
            // Handle errors
    }
);

Example 2: Open an existing account record within a dialog

var pageInput = {
    pageType: "entityrecord",
    entityName: "account",
    entityId: "00aa00aa-bb11-cc22-dd33-44ee44ee44ee" //replace with actual ID
};
var navigationOptions = {
    target: 2,
    height: {value: 80, unit:"%"},
    width: {value: 70, unit:"%"},
    position: 1
};
Xrm.Navigation.navigateTo(pageInput, navigationOptions).then(
    function success() {
            // Run code on success
    },
    function error() {
            // Handle errors
    }
);

Example 3: Open an account form in the create mode within a dialog

var pageInput = {
    pageType: "entityrecord",
    entityName: "account"    
};
var navigationOptions = {
    target: 2,
    height: {value: 80, unit:"%"},
    width: {value: 70, unit:"%"},
    position: 1
};
Xrm.Navigation.navigateTo(pageInput, navigationOptions).then(
    function success(result) {
            console.log("Record created with ID: " + result.savedEntityReference[0].id + 
            " Name: " + result.savedEntityReference[0].name)
            // Handle dialog closed
    },
    function error() {
            // Handle errors
    }
);

Example 4: Open an HTML web resource in a dialog

var pageInput = {
    pageType: "webresource",
    webresourceName: "new_sample_webresource.htm"
};
var navigationOptions = {
    target: 2,
    width: 500, // value specified in pixel
    height: 400, // value specified in pixel
    position: 1
};
Xrm.Navigation.navigateTo(pageInput, navigationOptions).then(
    function success() {
            // Run code on success
    },
    function error() {
            // Handle errors
