Hi Everyone,

Today I got a requirement to retrieve Optionset Metadata using JavaScript.

Here is the code for the same.

function getOptionSetMetadata(schemaName) {
    var schemaName = "industrycode"; // You can pass this as a parameter to this function and comment this line.

    var optionSetFetch = `<fetch version='1.0' output-format='xml-platform' mapping='logical' distinct='false'>
        <entity name='stringmap' >
            <attribute name='attributevalue' />
            <attribute name='value' />
            <filter type='and' >
                <condition attribute='attributename' operator='eq' value= '${schemaName}' />
            </filter>
        </entity>
    </fetch>`;
    optionSetFetch = "?fetchXml=" + encodeURIComponent(optionSetFetch);

    Xrm.WebApi.retrieveMultipleRecords("stringmap", optionSetFetch).then(
        function success(result) {
            if (result.entities.length > 0) {
                console.log(result.entities);
                for (count = 0; count < result.entities.length; count++) {
                    console.log("Attribute Value : " + result.entities[count].attributevalue);
                    console.log("Value : " + result.entities[count].value);
                }
            }
        },
        function (error) {
            console.log(error.message);
        });
}

Here is the output

Hope this helps.

Calculate the Age from Date of Birth in JavaScript

Gopinath1 Comment

Hi Everyone,

Today I have got an requirement to calculate the Age based on Date of Birth.

Here is the way to get the Age using JavaScript.

function getAge(dateString) {
    // var dateString = '12/02/1988'
    var today = new Date();
    var birthDate = new Date(dateString);
    var age = today.getFullYear() - birthDate.getFullYear();
    var m = today.getMonth() - birthDate.getMonth();
    console.log(today.getMonth()) 
    console.log(birthDate.getMonth())
    console.log(m);
    // Logically we cannot include the current year if the birthday has not completed in the current year. 
    // The below condition checks the same and removes the current year from Age.
    if (m < 0 || (m === 0 && today.getDate() < birthDate.getDate())) {
        age--;
    }
    return age;
}

Hope this helps.
