Introduction:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In Dynamic 365 v9.0 we can use \u201c<\/strong>Xrm.Utility.invokeProcessAction<\/strong>\u201d<\/strong> to execute Global Action. When we need to create an Action to be executed on multiple entities, we can use Global Action in Dynamics 365.<\/p>\n

Here in the below example, we are cloning Account record by executing Global Action in Dynamic 365 v9.0.<\/p>\n

Create Global Action:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

1.<\/strong> Go to Setting -> Processes -> Click New<\/strong> and then select Category as \u201cAction\u201d and Entity as \u201cNone(Global)\u201d as you can see in the below screenshot.<\/p>\n

\"1Execute<\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> We have selected Entity: None(Global)<\/strong> for executing the global action. So by doing this, we can reuse the same Action globally to any entity where ever needed.<\/p>\n

\"Execute<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> It accepts an input and Output parameter. You can specify parameters of any of the following data types.<\/p>\n

\"Execute<\/p>\n

In our case we are passing AccountId<\/strong> as an input parameter and ClonedId<\/strong> as an output parameter, so when global Action will execute it will take AccountId as an input parameter (Account record Guid as a string Parameter) and in result will return ClonedId as an output parameter(Cloned Account Guid as a string parameter).<\/p>\n

Execute Global Action using Xrm.Utility.invokeProcessAction:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"Execute<\/p>\n

Here as you can see in the below screenshot, in console we got Cloned Account record Id as output paramater<\/p>\n

\"Execute<\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

By using the above simple steps one can use global Action on multiple entities in Dynamics 365 CRM.<\/p>\n
