Dynamics 365 has introduced multi select option set field. In one of the recent requirements, it was needed to open a form with pre-set values for multi select option set field.
Following steps are required:
1. For example, Contact entity has a Multi select option set field called Category which has values as following:
| Label | Integer Value |
| A | 1 |
| B | 2 |
| C | 3 |
| D | 4 |
2. Following URL can be triggered to open the contact entity form with set values for Category field with A,C and D:
/main.aspx?etn=contact&extraqs=dyn_category%3D%5B1%2C3%2C4%5D&pagetype=entityrecord
3. The dynamically generated URL can then be opened using window.open method to open CRM contact form with pre-set values for multi select field:
Hope it helps and happy 365ing!
