I am given a task to make a feature that autogenerates a ticket ID for a list.
However, I found out that the template used for the site is a helpdesk.wsp template.
Now, I am having problems stapling the said feature to Service Requests because it is currently under LLISTS and not LISTS.
See attached image.
Can someone help me on this?
Thanks.

I solved this by just adding my newly created column to the default Content Type which is "Service Request". Weird. But it behaves accordingly now.

I'd like to perform some operation in mscrm plugin, if a new record is created automatically by CRM client for Outlook. Eg. it can be a contact or an incident created from an email.
Is there way to check this condition?
We have contact's first name and last name filled oppositely and incident without the caseorigincode field filled, when created from an email in Outlook. Maybe there is a better workarround to solve these two issues. But still I am wondering about the original question.
According to the sources available online, there is really no reliable way to solve this.
There was property CallerOrigin until CRM 4. Then it got deprecated, but continued working for some time, as state in another answer (https://stackoverflow.com/a/14812885/1474519). But it doesn’t seem to be working anymore in CRM 2015.
I found couple advices with IsExecutingOffline and IsOfflinePlayback, but it is really not solving the problem.
I also found a tip to check this code HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.ToString();. This doesn’t work for me.
I found the most complete information here: http://blog.simpletrees.com/2012/03/executioncontextcallerorigin-in.html
According to this article, I am sending a value in a hidden field from my form (or thru API, from plugin, from workflow). As this field is not set when a record is created from outlook, I can recognize the record being created from Outlook. There is of course problem, this field might not be set when importing records or when using mobile app. But I don’t see a better way to go.
Therefore, I started request on Microsoft Connect to add this functionality. You can vote for it here: https://connect.microsoft.com/dynamicssuggestions/feedback/details/1776771
You could add an attribute to the contact and incident to save the origin of the creation.
Then you add a plugin that listens to the Create event of the entities and register it only for client side (offline) execution.
Or you check the PluginExecutionContext for the IsExecutingOffline and IsOfflinePlayback properties to check if the creation was initiated from outlook and store the appropriate value.

I am trying to use the following command in a silverlight application "WebOperationContext.Current.OutgoingRequest.Headers.OutgoingResponse.Headers.Add". However it doesnt appear to exist. I know it does exist because it is on the microsoft documention website. Here is a link http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.servicemodel.web.weboperationcontext.outgoingrequest.aspx. I am guessing that it is one of those functions not available in silverlight. Any ideas on why this Add function would not be available would be appreciated.
Thanks for your time!
[Final EDIT] Here is a link to the code I wrote in case it helps anyone.
I think I have a solution. Umbraco uses asp.net files for their popups
which is something I haven't used yet but I think I can get the hang
of it. I don't know how to access the aspx from within my class,
should I make a code behind partial class?
Thanks for any help.
I am developing a multi-lingual site, using Umbraco, where content nodes are automatically copied to each language as they are created. Is there any way to implement a custom popup to confirm that it should be copied to all instead?
This wouldn't actually be on the site, rather in the back office.
Or is it possible to open a browser popup with c# as all I really need is a bool value from a message box?
[EDIT: added possible solution]
I sorted this by adapting Umbraco's own create function. I made a new .aspx file and added the functionality that I needed to the code behind.
I was able to add a context menu item that allowed me to call my new page and from there called a method to duplicate the content.
From the method, I pass the new node and get the parent id. Then I compare all the node names for those that match and use the umbraco document.copy() method to recreate the content under each language at the correct position.
If I can make the code more generic then I will upload it as a package to Umbraco.
I'm trying to get into the Amazon advertizing API to use with one of my apps. I heard recently that there were changes and needed an AssociateTag (broughtin from the affiliate program)
After using samples from this link
http://aws.amazon.com/code/2480?_encoding=UTF8&queryArg=searchQuery&x=0&fromSearch=1&y=0&searchPath=code&searchQuery=Advertising
and
http://flyingpies.wordpress.com/2009/08/13/signing-amazon-product-advertising-api-cwcf-part-2/
I can't seem to use those samples anymore. after some digging online I found that I was supposed to add an AssociateTag to the itemSource request variable, but I created a dummy login to facilitate that andthe output is pretty much the same. can anyone help me with this?
I had the exact same issue as I based my application on the flyingpies.wordpress example and couldn't get it to work by adding in the Associate Tag Id and the latest web service>
I downloaded this example:
http://aws.amazon.com/code/Product-Advertising-API/2481
And made some small changes and got it all working...
The main one changing the namespace to:
http://webservices.amazon.com/AWSECommerceService/2011-08-01
Throughout all the code......
I think I may have updated the code in a couple of other places and can help you if these errors occur..
I need to create and add custom headers to an ASP.NET 2.0 application.
The case is simulation of an SSO-login in our dev/test environment.
When I try to add headers I run into the "Not supported on this platform."
error. BigJim has a nice post on the subject here:
http://bigjimindc.blogspot.com/2007/07/ms-kb928365-aspnet-requestheadersadd.html
The root of my problem lies in the fact that I need to simulate various
persons logging into my application. Not just adding static data in a
HttpModule. I need to take values from a couple of TextBoxes and transfer
information from these into custom headers and then re-direct the user. The
HttpModule stuff happens to early in the pipeline...
Does anyone now if there exsist a simple redirect/proxy solution that one
could use in a dev environment? Or have simple/beautiful way of doing it in code?
One method i have used before, though a long winded approach, is NUnitASP.
This is based on the NUnit framework but intended for ASP.NET UI Testing.
It basically starts a browser in memory, and is able to manipulate the content exactly like a user would.
Using this you could view your page, enter data into textboxes and submit pages.
Hopefully that can help you do the testing you require. I've used it to test load, and spider through sites of mine to gather data.
If you use IIS 7 you can set the Pipeline Mode to integrated
This Setting is found in the App-Pool Properties.
I could be wrong, but doesn't the Response.AddHeader() method still work? Although, I agree with Oscar that a formal testing solution like NUnitASP is a good idea. Although, NUnitASP is a little dated. I still use it for some of my projects just because it still does work; it just isn't as refined or as simple as WaTiN or similar projects.
The browser drops the header if you do a Response.AddHeader()...
The header must be added to the orginal Request...
why don't use ASP.NET forms authentication model?
you define your "private folders". if you attempt to acces to a private folder without login, you automatically are redirected to a your custom login page.
