Explore Dataverse Tools: FetchXML Formatter Online by Arun Potti – Usage

In my previous article, I had explained about Arun Potti’s FetchXML Formatter and in this article, will explain about how to use this Tool.

Requirement: Get all the Active Contacts created in the last 1 hour using JS, C# and Web API.

Solution:

Follow the below steps,

Step 1: Click on the below link to open the Arun Potti’s FetchXML formatter.

Step 2: Open the Advanced Find and Select the conditions as mentioned below.

Look for: Contacts

Conditions:

Created On – Last X Hours – 1
Status Equals Active

Step 3: Click on Download Fetch XML.

Step 4: Click on Open file.

Step 5: Select and copy the downloaded FetchXML.

FetchXML Code:

<fetch version="1.0" output-format="xml-platform" mapping="logical" distinct="false">
<entity name="contact">
<attribute name="fullname"/>
<attribute name="address1_composite"/>
<attribute name="mobilephone"/>
<attribute name="birthdate"/>
<attribute name="contactid"/>
<order attribute="fullname" descending="false"/>
<filter type="and">
<condition attribute="createdon" operator="last-x-hours" value="1"/>
<condition attribute="statecode" operator="eq" value="0"/>
</filter>
</entity>
</fetch>

Step 6: Paste the copied FetchXML in the FetchXML Input in the Arun Potti’s FetchXML formatter mentioned in the Step 1.

After the FetchXML input is provided, the tool automatically produces fully formatted JavaScript, C#, and Web API code snippets in the Generated Code section for the direct implementation.

Hope you have successfully downloaded the required FetchXML, provided the Input and saw all the outputs.

In the next article, will explain how to use them in real code JS, C# and Web API and get the desired results.

Explore Dataverse Tools: FetchXML Formatter Online by Arun Potti

Logo of Dataverse featuring a green circular design with the text 'Dataverse' in a modern font.

Working with FetchXML can sometimes get messy – especially when dealing with long, nested queries. To make this easier, I’ve created a new Online FetchXML Formatter. This tool automatically beautifies and structures your FetchXML, making it more readable and developer‑friendly.

This is a lightweight web tool for Dataverse / Dynamics 365 CE developers. It helps them format FetchXML and instantly generate ready-to-use JavaScript, C#, and Web API snippets. All of this is possible from a single FetchXML input.

Click on the below link to open the Tool.

Arun Potti’s FetchXML Formatter

Features:

Clear separation between input and the three outputs.

🔹 Single FetchXML input

Paste FetchXML in standard XRM / Dataverse format

Basic XML validation (parse + root <fetch> check)

🔹 Automatic formatting

Auto-beautifies FetchXML on input/change

Fixes indentation and line breaks for readability

🔹 Code generation

JavaScript snippet for Xrm.WebApi.retrieveMultipleRecords or Web API calls

C# verbatim string snippet for plugins, custom workflow activities, or console apps

Web API URL parameter (fetchXml) with URL-encoded FetchXML

🔹 Copy to clipboard

One-click Copy for:

  • JavaScript output
  • C# output
  • Web API output
  • Formatted FetchXML

🔹 Sample FetchXML

Insert a sample FetchXML query with one click to test the tool

🔹 Clean, responsive UI

Modern layout that works on desktop and mobile

In the next post, I’ll walk you through what the tool does. I will explain how it works.

Fixing Postman Connection Issues: A Step-by-Step Guide

I got the below error, when I launched the Postman.

Unable to load data as you’re offline.
Your data may not be upto date until you’re back online.

Also, I saw, the Connection error.

We were unable to establish a websocket connection with our servers. Please retry. If the issue persists, check your network settings to ensure that websocket connections are allowed.

I clicked on the Retry connection, but no luck. Then I followed the below steps and resolved this issue.

Step 1: Clicked on Help and click on Check for Updates. Then, I found that there were some new updates that needs to be installed.

Step 2: I followed the steps to install it, but I could not be able to Install it.

Step 3: Then I clicked on the below link to download the latest version of the Postman from the Downloads page.

Step 4: Clicked on the Windows x64.

Postman (x64).exe has started downloading.

Postman has been downloaded to the Downloads folder.

Step 5: Double clicked on “Postman (x64.exe)” to start installing the latest version of Postman.

The Ultimate Guide to Setting Up Alerts & Notifications in Dynamics 365 CRM

 

Alerts & Notifications in Dynamics 365 CRM

In many businesses, important updates in Dynamics 365 CRM go unnoticed. One delayed update can cost a deal, damage customer trust, or slow down decision-making. Sales teams miss important lead updates, service teams fail to act on escalations, and marketing teams lose track of campaign responses.

Common Challenges Teams Face with Alerts in CRM

  • No real-time alerts inside CRM → missed updates
  • Too many emails → ignored or overlooked
  • No way to alert users based on record changes
  • No support for rich-text messages or multilingual teams
  • Managers do not get notified when targets, deadlines, or SLAs are at risk

Alerts & Notifications in Dynamics 365 CRM

This is exactly why automated alerting is no longer optional; it’s essential.

The Solution: Alerts4Dynamics – The Complete Alert Engine for Dynamics 365 CRM

Dynamics 365 CRM doesn’t offer robust in-app alerts by default.

Alerts4Dynamics fills this gap perfectly by supporting pop-ups, form notifications, email alerts, rich text notifications, multilingual content, user preferences, and much more.

Before we dive into the configuration tutorial, let’s explore the key features with practical examples.

Type of Alerts in CRM (With Real Business Examples)

1️. Pop-Up Alerts

Instant notifications that appear in the alerts panel (Bell icon).

Example:

A new lead is created from the website, and the assigned sales rep receives a pop-up alert instantly.

2️. Form Notifications – Dialog

A pop-up box opens automatically when the user enters a record form.

Example:

When entering an Account record with unpaid invoices, users see a dialog warning:

“This customer has 3 overdue invoices. Please review before proceeding.”

Helps service agents make informed decisions instantly.

3️. Form Notifications – Bar

A banner-style alert displayed at the top of record forms.

Example:

A quote nearing expiry shows a yellow bar:

“Quote expires in 3 days. Please follow up with the customer.”

Reduces lost revenue from expired quotes.

4️. Email Notifications

Send alerts directly to internal users or external contacts.

Example:

When an invoice is marked as “Paid,” an email goes to all contacts related to that Account, notifying them about payment confirmation.

Speeds up customer communication without manual emails.

5️. Event-Based Alerts

Trigger alerts when a record is created, updated, or changes status.

Example:

When a case is escalated:

  • The assigned agent gets a pop-up
  • The supervisor gets an email
  • The account manager gets a dialog alert

Ensures immediate action across all departments.

6️. Rule-Based Alerts

Trigger alerts using system views or FetchXML conditions.

Example:

Send alerts for:

  • Opportunities over $50,000
  • Invoices with amount ≥ $1000
  • Accounts without recent interactions

Perfect for automated monitoring of high-impact data.

7️. Record-Based Alerts

Alerts created for individual records.

Example:

A specific quote is expiring in 48 hours → alert only on that record.

Great for one-time reminders.

CRM

Alerts & Notifications in Dynamics 365 CRM

8️. Multilingual Alerts

Display alerts in user’s preferred CRM language.

Example:

English user sees:
“Invoice is overdue.”

French user sees:
“Facture en retard.”

Ideal for global companies.

9️. Rich Text Alerts (Images, Links, Colors, Formatting)

Create visually engaging messages.

Example:

A marketing alert with:

  • Bold text
  • Hyperlink to campaign page
  • Embedded image

Boosts clarity and engagement.

10. User Preferences

Let users choose how they want alerts delivered:

  • Pop-up
  • Email
  • Both
  • Or none

Example:

Sales reps prefer email, service agents prefer pop-ups → Alerts4Dynamics adapts accordingly.

Prevents alert fatigue.

11. Alert Audience Filtering

Show alerts only to selected users, teams, or roles.

Example:

A finance alert is visible only to the finance team, not sales.

Enhances data confidentiality.

12. Post Notifications (Tag Users Like Social Media)

Tag users in Timeline → they receive notifications automatically.

Example:

Support agent tags a sales rep:
“@Bob, please contact this customer regarding renewal.”

13. Email Digest Workflow (Daily/Weekly/Monthly)

Send a summary of unread or active alerts.

Example:

Managers receive a daily digest of:

  • Pending approvals
  • Escalated cases
  • Missed follow-ups

Replaces manual reporting.

1️4. Search Notifications

Quickly find alerts using keywords.

Example:

Sales manager searches “Invoice” to view all invoice-related notifications.

Saves time for high-volume CRM users.

FAQs

1. What are CRM alert notifications?

CRM alert notifications are automated messages that inform users about important updates such as new leads, escalations, deadlines, or record changes. While most CRMs offer basic notifications, tools like Alerts4Dynamics provide advanced real-time pop-ups, form alerts, email alerts, and rich-text messages that ensure nothing gets missed.

2. Why do businesses need alerts in a CRM system?

Alerts help teams respond quickly, reduce missed follow-ups, and stay updated without manually checking every record. A solution like Alerts4Dynamics adds smart, automated alerting to Dynamics 365 CRM, helping sales, service, and marketing teams act instantly.

3. What types of alerts can a CRM send?

CRMs typically support email alerts, reminders, and workflow-based notifications. With Alerts4Dynamics, users can go beyond the basics and send real-time pop-ups, form dialogs, form banners, multilingual alerts, rich-text notifications, audience-filtered alerts, and event-based triggers.

4. How do CRM alerts work?

Alerts trigger based on actions like new record creation, updates, or approaching deadlines. In Dynamics 365 CRM, Alerts4Dynamics makes this easier by allowing no-code configuration of event-based and rule-based alerts that fire instantly when something important happens.

5. Can CRM alerts be customized?

Yes. CRMs allow some customization, but Alerts4Dynamics offers deeper flexibility, colored messages, bold text, images, links, icons, and structured formatting. You can also choose levels like Information, Warning, or Critical.

6. Can I choose who receives CRM alerts?

Absolutely. With Alerts4Dynamics, you can target users, teams, roles, business units, or even related record owners. This ensures alerts reach only the right audience while keeping sensitive information restricted.

7. How do CRM alerts help sales teams?

Sales reps get immediate notifications about new leads, stage changes, high-value deals, and expiring quotes. Alerts4Dynamics helps increase conversions by ensuring reps never miss a follow-up or time-sensitive opportunity.

8. Can CRM alerts help reduce email overload?

Yes. In-app pop-ups in Alerts4Dynamics reduce email dependency. Users can choose how they want to receive alerts: pop-up only, email only, both, or none, helping prevent alert fatigue.

9. Does CRM alerts support multiple languages?

Some CRMs offer partial translation support. Alerts4Dynamics goes further by auto-displaying alerts in the user’s preferred CRM language, making it ideal for global teams.

Final Thoughts: Make Dynamics 365 CRM Smarter with Alerts4Dynamics

Alert automation transforms how your teams communicate.
With Alerts4Dynamics, you empower your organization to:

  • React faster
  • Communicate smarter
  • Boost productivity
  • Improve customer experience
  • Reduce missed follow-ups
  • Deliver timely updates across roles

This is the missing alert infrastructure that Dynamics 365 CRM always needed.

Try Alerts4Dynamics with a 15-day free trial from our website or Microsoft AppSource alert notifications.

My first XRMToolBox Plugin: Dataverse Users, Security roles, Teams and Teams security roles (Usage)

Logos of two software tools: a blue and purple graphic featuring a stylized 'D' and a red, white, and blue logo with a wrench symbol.

In my previous articles, I introduced my plugin tool, “Dataverse Users, Security Roles, Teams, and Team Security Roles“ and explained how to install it using XrmToolBox. In this article, I’ll Walk you through how to use the tool effectively.

Follow the below steps.

Step 1: Open XrmToolBox and search for “Dataverse Users, Security roles, Teams and Teams security roles” in Tools tab.

Click on it.

Screenshot of XrmToolBox interface showing the search bar and the plugin tool 'Dataverse Users, Security roles, Teams and Teams security roles'.

Step 2: Click on Yes to connect to an organization.

Screenshot of the XrmToolBox interface displaying the tool 'Dataverse Users, Security roles, Teams and Teams security roles' with an option to connect to an organization.

Step 3: Select the required connection and click on OK.

Screenshot of the XrmToolBox interface showing the 'Dataverse Users, Security roles, Teams and Teams security roles' tool with a dialog box for selecting connections.

Tool has been opened successfully.

Screenshot of XrmToolBox interface showing the 'Dataverse Users, Security roles' tool with a gray background and zero users retrieved.

Step 4: Click on Load Data.

Screenshot of the XrmToolBox interface showcasing the 'Dataverse Users, Security Roles, Teams' tool, with options to close, load data, and search, displaying zero users retrieved.

Tool will start retrieving all the System user details, Security roles (separated by semicolon ;), Teams (separated by semicolon 😉 and Team Security Roles (separated by semicolon ;).

XrmToolBox interface displaying the Dataverse Users, Security Roles tool, with a loading message indicating retrieval of system user details.

Once, the Tool retrieves the data, you can see the data in the grid and also can see the number of users retrieved.

Screenshot of XrmToolBox displaying user details and security roles for a Dataverse connector, showing fields such as Azure AD Object ID, Full Name, User Status, and User Security Roles.

Step 5: Search for some text to filter the data.

As an example, I have entered the text “System Administrator“, and you can see the grid filtered with the entered text and can see the updated count as well.

Screenshot of the XrmToolBox displaying user data, including user details, security roles, and teams, with a total of 85 users retrieved.

If you want to sort, click on any column in the grid to sort ascending or descending.

As an example, I have clicked on Full Name to sort in Ascending order.

Screenshot of the XrmToolBox displaying a grid of user details including User ID, Application ID, Azure AD Object ID, Domain Name, Business Unit Name, Primary Email, User Status, Access Mode, User Security Roles, and User Teams.

Step 6: Click on Export to export the data in CSV format.

Note: Data will be exported to the CSV format only on the filtered data, which you can see on this grid.

Screenshot of XrmToolBox showing a grid with user details, including User ID, Application ID, Full Name, and Security Roles. Option buttons for Load Data and Export are visible at the top.

Step 7: Choose the required path and Provide the File name.

Click on Save.

User interface showing the file save dialog for exporting data to CSV in XrmToolBox.

Step 8: Once the data is exported successfully, you can see the Information message and the alert dialog with the Path, the file is downloaded.

Click on OK.

Step 9: Go to the Downloads folder and open the file to see the data.

Boost Customer Interaction Using WhatsApp in CRM: A Complete Integration Guide!

WhatsApp CRM

The 5-Minute Response Gap That’s Costing You Customers

98% of WhatsApp messages are read within 3 minutes. Compare that to emails, where only 20% are opened within the first hour and you’ll start to see why your customers are frustrated.

Your sales team sent 50 follow-up emails last week. Only 8 got responses. Meanwhile, your competitors are having real-time conversations with your prospects on WhatsApp and closing deals before you even get a reply.

The modern customer doesn’t wait. They text, they message, they expect instant responses. And if your CRM isn’t built for real-time, conversational engagement, you’re already falling behind.

That’s exactly why businesses are racing to implement WhatsApp integration in Dynamics 365, turning their CRM from a database into a dynamic conversation hub.

Why Traditional CRM Communication is Failing Your Customers

Let’s be honest: email and phone calls aren’t cutting it anymore. Here’s what your current CRM communication looks like from your customer’s perspective:

  • Average response time: 24-48 hours (if they’re lucky)
  • Open rates: Declining year over year as inboxes overflow
  • Customer frustration: “Why haven’t they gotten back to me?”
  • Your CRM sends automated email reminders that no one reads
  • Sales reps spend hours chasing prospects via outdated channels
  • Customer service tickets stall waiting for responses
  • The cost: 67% of customers abandon a purchase because they couldn’t get timely support

Here’s the critical stat: 75% of customers expect responses within 5 minutes for urgent queries. Your current CRM communication channels can’t deliver that. But WhatsApp can.

The problem isn’t your team’s effort; it’s that you’re using 2010 tools to meet 2025 expectations. You can integrate WhatsApp with Dynamics 365 to bridge that gap, transforming your CRM from a static record-keeper into a real-time engagement platform.

WhatsApp Integration in Dynamics 365: Your Competitive Advantage

Enter WhatsApp: the channel where your customers already spend hours every day. With over 2 billion active users globally, WhatsApp isn’t just a messaging app; it’s where modern business conversations happen.

When you integrate WhatsApp with Dynamics 365, something powerful happens: every customer chat, every query, every update flows directly into your CRM workspace. No app-switching. No copy-pasting. No information silos.

Why WhatsApp Changes the Game

  • Instant Connection: Meet customers where they are on the app they already trust and use daily
  • Rich Media Sharing: Send product catalogs, payment links, support videos, and documents directly in chat
  • Verified Business Presence: WhatsApp Business API provides a green checkmark that builds instant trust
  • Global Reach: Connect with customers across 180+ countries without worrying about SMS costs or international calling
  • High Engagement Rates: WhatsApp messages have a 98% open rate compared to 20% for email

Introducing WhatsApp4Dynamics: The Bridge Between Conversations and CRM

But here’s the challenge: WhatsApp and Dynamics 365 don’t talk to each other natively. That’s where WhatsApp4Dynamics comes in a purpose-built WhatsApp connector for Dynamics CRM that brings these two powerhouses together.

With WhatsApp4Dynamics, your team can:

✅ Chat directly from Dynamics 365: No toggling between apps, WhatsApp conversations live inside your CRM interface

AI-Powered WhatsApp Conversations: The Future is Now

Here’s where it gets exciting. WhatsApp integration in Dynamics 365 isn’t just about connecting two platforms; it’s about unlocking AI capabilities that make every conversation smarter.

Sentiment Analysis: Know How Customers Feel

Your support agent opens a WhatsApp conversation. Before they even read the messages, Dynamics 365 AI shows them:

  • Customer sentiment: Frustrated, Neutral, or Satisfied
  • Urgency indicators: Keywords suggesting high-priority issues
  • Conversation tone: Formal, casual, or emotional

Why This Matters: Agents tailor their responses based on emotional context, not just words. A frustrated customer gets priority handling and empathetic responses. A satisfied customer gets a quick upsell opportunity.

Copilot-Assisted Responses: Draft Messages Instantly

Your sales rep gets a WhatsApp question: “What’s your pricing for enterprise plans?”

Instead of typing from scratch, they click “Draft Response” and Copilot:

  1. Pulls relevant data from Dynamics 365: Enterprise pricing tiers, recent quotes, competitor comparison
  2. Drafts personalized message: “Hi [Customer Name], great question! Based on your team size of [X], here are our enterprise options…”
  3. Suggests next steps: Schedule demo, send detailed proposal, offer trial
  4. Rep reviews, edits, sends: Total time: 30 seconds instead of 5 minutes

Why This Matters: Faster responses without sacrificing personalization. Consistency across team members. New hires sound like veterans.

Automated Conversation Summaries: Never Lose Context

Long WhatsApp conversation with multiple back-and-forths? AI automatically:

  • Summarizes key points: Customer’s main issue, agreed solution, next steps
  • Extracts action items: Tasks for your team, commitments made to the customer
  • Updates CRM records: No manual data entry required
  • Creates timeline entry: Full conversation searchable and auditable

Why This Matters: Perfect handoffs between shifts/team members. No one asks customers to repeat themselves. Managers can review hundreds of conversations in minutes.

The Bottom Line on AI: With Dynamics 365’s AI and Copilot capabilities, WhatsApp4Dynamics users can enhance their communication experience with sentiment insights, response suggestions, and automation taking WhatsApp engagement to the next level
