As we all know that, To show the list of data in portal, We used the Entity List but sometime we have a requirement to show the filtered data that's why we have to use JQuery DataTable to show the list of data. In this post i will show you, How we can fetch the data from CRM and show this data as a table format in our portal.
PreRequisite: You should know :
1) How to use OData query in portal. if you don't know then Click Here to know that.
2) About Web-Template. Click Here to know about that.
Step 1: Copy the below code and paste this code in your code editor and change the code as per your requirement. In this code i am fetching the Case Entity data using OData Query and bind the data in Table.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.19/css/jquery.dataTables.min.css">
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf8" src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.19/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js"></script>
<br>
<body onload="showTable()">
<table id="caseTable" class="table">
<thead>
<tr>
<td>Title </td>
<td> Name </td>
</tr>
</thead>
</table>
</body>
<script>
function showTable(){
// Fetch the Case Entity Data in JSon format.
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
datatype: "json",
url: "~/_odata/Cases",
beforeSend: function(XMLHttpRequest) {
XMLHttpRequest.setRequestHeader("Accept", "application/json");
},
async: false,
success: function(data, textStatus, xhr) {
result = data.value ;
},
error: function(xhr, textStatus, errorThrown) {
Xrm.Utility.alertDialog(textStatus + " " + errorThrown);
}
});
// Now bind the JSon data in Table format
$('#caseTable').DataTable({
"aaData": result,
"columns": [
{ "data": "title" }, // Here give the column name(The data which you want to show).
{ "data": "title" }
]
});
}
</script>
Step 2: Now paste this code in your web template.
Step 3: Now check your web page in your portal.
Sometime we get the error in pop-up form like "Cannot reinitialise DataTable".
To solve this error, add this code in your DataTable : "destroy": true,
When we fetch the data using Odata Query, we get only 10 records. To get more than 10 records, Click Here to know that.
