Last January we released a brand new tool called CRM DevTools for CRM 2013 and 2011 UR12+. Today we’re happy to announce a new update that supports CRM 2015 and CRM 2015 Update 1. If you missed the original release, head here for usage information or here for the latest release.
Along with CRM 2015 and Update 1 support, we added a few more handy features.
Note: Most of these new features will open a new window so be sure enable pop-ups
Form Tab – Record Properties
The Record Properties button on the Form tab brings back the old Properties page from CRM 2011 that still exists but isn’t surfaced anywhere in the UI. The page displays the permissions on the record and the Created By, Created On, Last Modified By, and Last Modified On.
Form Tab – Performance Center
The Performance Center button on the Form tab displays the native Performance Center on top of the record form. The Performance Center is used to debug any performance issues with a record form to see where it can be optimized.
Debug Tab
The new Debug tab replaces the old DB & Server tab. The information from the old tab is now within the Environment Info button. The Debug tab has 5 buttons to provide easy access to native debug pages within your CRM environment.
Debug Tab – Diagnostics Page
The Diagnostics Page button opens the native Diagnostics page for your environment. This page helps debug any network issues and admins can use it to run a latency and bandwidth test.
Debug Tab – Environment Info
The Environment Info button opens the native Debug Information page for the CRM environment. It contains version information for the CRM server and database, along with other settings.
Debug Tab – Default Solution
The Default Solution button is pretty straight-forward and will open up the default solution for the organization.
Debug Tab – CRM For Tablets
The CRM For Tablets button will open up the CRM For Tablets app within your browser. This is very handy to help debug any JavaScript issues with the app. The native browser developer tools can be used to see any JavaScript errors that might occur within the app. It can also be used to just see how the app will look with your organization.
We hope you enjoy the latest release of CRM DevTools as much as we do! Hit us up in the comments with any feedback or suggestions for future releases.
