Power Platform – D365 CE JavaScript: CRUD:ing somewhere else!


The article discusses the pros and cons of performing CRUD operations using JavaScript in the Power Platform and Dynamics 365 CE. It suggests that instead of using JavaScript, developers should consider moving CRUD operations to server-side code (C#) using custom workflows, custom actions, or instant plugins. The article highlights that JavaScript introduces issues on the client-side, such as browser compatibility and caching problems. On the other hand, the C# approach saves time in the long run, helps with testing and code quality, and allows for easier automation testing. The article concludes that developers should avoid performing CRUD operations in JavaScript unless they are very basic, and instead opt for the C# approach.
