Model driven App: Custom Tour

(0) Share

Report

Posted on by florianbommariu

Hi everyone,

The msdyn_tour entity is documented from the technical perspective - looks amazing. I found some resources on custom help pages for my model driven app. And I have managed to create one.

I was wondering, if this is possible for a Tour aswell?

In my 'solution' i can view the "Tours" entity and create a new entry. But I am missing a practical doc or example for the "tour definition". How is this supposed to be defined?

Happy for any help. @KumarVivek maybe you can help?

For people searching for custom help pages, have a look here:

Hello,

Looks like the Tours entity might be for internal use only and is not intended to be used directly for customization or extensibility. I'll confirm with the team and revert.

Thanks,
Vivek

Just want to confirm the following, which has already been mentioned by Kumar Vivek and is also recently published here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/data-platform/create-custom-help-pages#about-the-contextual-help-managed-solution

About the Contextual Help managed solution
The custom help panes and guided tasks feature consists of the solution components in the Contextual Help managed solution. Customizing or creating records using the tables outside of the custom help panes and guided tasks feature isn’t supported.
Notice that some apps, such as Dynamics 365 Sales and Dynamics 365 Service, include first run experiences that are built by using tables included in the Contextual Help managed solution. For example, both the Help Page (msdyn_helppage) and Tour (msdyn_tour) tables are used in the creation of these first run experiences. Currently, the custom help panes and guided tasks feature doesn’t support creating these first run experiences.
