Cannot use arrow functions with CRM WebApi v9 and typescript
I´m working on the upgrade of the js code to the new V9 version of Dynamics 365 and I cannot use arrow functions when using Xrm.WebApi (also upgrading js to ts).
For example, this does not work:
Xrm.WebApi.retrieveMultipleRecords(
'mks_entitlementline',
`$select=mks_name, _mks_parententitlementid_value&$filter=_mks_parententitlementid_value eq '${eId}'`).then(
(results) => {
if (!this.commonUtils.isUndefinedOrNull(results) && results.entities.length > 0) {
this.usesELS();
} else {
this.notUsingELS();
}
// filter contact lookup
this.filterContactLookup("", eId);
this.refreshPriorities(eId);
if (this.commonUtils.isUndefinedOrNull(this.formContext.getAttribute<Xrm.Attributes.LookupAttribute>('primarycontactid').getValue())) {
this.formContext.getControl<Xrm.Controls.LookupControl>('primarycontactid').setDisabled(false);
}
}).catch(error => {
console.log("ERROR -> entitlementSlaManagementOnUpdate: ", error);
Xrm.Utility.alertDialog("E----", () => { });
});
but this does (uglier in my opinion):
Xrm.WebApi.retrieveRecord("role", searchedId, "$select=name")
.then(
function (role: { roleid: string, name: string }) {
outArr.push({ Id: role.roleid, Name: role.name, Type: "role" });
if (rolesAndTeams.length === outArr.length) {
if (!error) {
_onOk(outArr);
}
_onErr(errorObject)
}
},
function (err) {
errorObject = err;
error = true;
})
The error I´m receiving is:
Xrm.WebApi.retrieveMultipleRecords(...).then(...).catch is not a function
Basically tells me that 'catch' is not valid but I don´t know why it isn´t since it is ok for the ts compiler... I also tried configuring tsconfig file to output on es5 and es2017 but it didn´t work either.
so... can arrow functions be used with Xrm.WebApi? if so... what I´m doing wrong/not doing?
Thanks in advance!

I don't think the problem is caused by arrow functions. I think catch is the problem. Compiler won't tell you anything, if return value is of type any. I don't know if that is the case, but if you look into CRM API, you will see following signature:
Xrm.WebApi.retrieveMultipleRecords(entityLogicalName, options, maxPageSize).then(successCallback, errorCallback);
There is no mention of catch, but instead you can pass errorCallback to then.
BTW this is the way, you pass errorHandler in the second example.
So try this:
Xrm.WebApi.retrieveMultipleRecords(
'mks_entitlementline',
`$select=mks_name, _mks_parententitlementid_value&$filter=_mks_parententitlementid_value eq '${eId}'`).then(
(results) => {
if (!this.commonUtils.isUndefinedOrNull(results) && results.entities.length > 0) {
this.usesELS();
} else {
this.notUsingELS();
}
// filter contact lookup
this.filterContactLookup("", eId);
this.refreshPriorities(eId);
if (this.commonUtils.isUndefinedOrNull(this.formContext.getAttribute<Xrm.Attributes.LookupAttribute>('primarycontactid').getValue())) {
this.formContext.getControl<Xrm.Controls.LookupControl>('primarycontactid').setDisabled(false);
}
},
error => {
console.log("ERROR -> entitlementSlaManagementOnUpdate: ", error);
Xrm.Utility.alertDialog("E----", () => { });
});
