Fetch Metadata in CRM 2011 using javascript synchronously
dynamics-crm-2011, javascript, metadata, synchronous
Solution
In the SDK, in the samplecode\js\soapforjscript\soapforjscript\scripts\sdk.metadata.js file there are RetrieveAllEntitiesAsync, RetrieveEntityAsync, and RetrieveAttributeAsync examples. To make synchronous, change the third parameter of the `req.open` statements to `false`. Then you can remove the `onreadystatechange` handler and handle the response immediately after the `req.send(request);` statement.
Problem
Is there any way to fetch metadata from CRM 2011 using javascript in a synchronous manner? If it is, could someone please hit me up with some sample code present in the SDK (I couldn't find it) or maybe your own code? Thanks.
