    <p>As the question suggests, I need to find out how to access entity data that has been passed into a JavaScript function via a lookup.</p> <p>JavaScript Code Follows:</p> <pre class="lang-js prettyprint-override"><code>// function to generate the correct Weighting Value when these parameters change function TypeAffectedOrRegionAffected_OnChanged(ExecutionContext, Type, Region, Weighting, Potential) { var type = Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get(Type).getValue(); var region = Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get(Region).getValue(); // if we have values for both fields if (type != null &amp;&amp; region != null) { // create the weighting variable var weighting = type[0].name.substring(4) + "-" + region; // recreate the Weighting Value Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get(Weighting).setValue(weighting); } </code></pre> <p>}</p> <p>As you can see with the following line using the name operator I can access my Type entity's Type field.</p> <pre class="lang-js prettyprint-override"><code>// create the weighting variable var weighting = type[0].name.substring(4) + "-" + region; </code></pre> <p>I am looking for a way now to access the values stored inside my type object. It has the following fields <code>new_type</code>, <code>new_description</code>, <code>new_value</code> and <code>new_kind</code>.</p> <p>I guess I'm looking for something like this:</p> <pre class="lang-js prettyprint-override"><code>// use value of entity to assign to our form field Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get(Potential).setValue(type[0].getAttribute("new_value")); </code></pre> <p>Thanks in advance for any help.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Comic</p>

    1. COa lookup contains only the `id`,`name` and `entityType` properties. In order to get other field values from the record is necessary to retrieve it using `REST` or `SOAP` endpoint.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
