Links

Whenever I find anything that I think is useful for me in my job I like to link it here.  The links are active at the time of posting, and I try to keep it up to date:

Tools/Solutions/Plugins

XRM Toolbox – Probably the most important tool in my job. A set of tools that makes customisation, configuration and operations extremely simple.

Dynamics 365 Workflow Tools – An extensive set of custom workflow activities to add extra capability to CRM workflows

Ultimate Workflow Toolkit – A set of custom workflow activities to extend the capability of workflows in CRM

Alert.js – This JavaScript library allows us to create custom popup alerts in CRM forms and views, using a nice lightbox with custom buttons and messages

Notify.js – This library gives developers the ability to create nice CRM notifications on forms and views

Process.js – This simple JavaScript library allows you to easily call workflows, dialogs, and actions in CRM from forms, views, web resources, or anywhere that supports JavaScript

Workflow Elements – a unique set of tools developed by CRM MVP Aiden Kaskela; I find it indispensable in coming up with creative solutions using workflows

Ribbon Workbench – now included with the XRM Toolbox, but worthy of it’s own link.  This makes it really easy to add/remove commands from the CRM Command Bar, including custom buttons to call workflows, dialogs, etc.
