Ambiguous binding is present. Resolve by sending lookup_type property.

Posted on by

I am getting this error when attempting to "Create a new record" within Dynamics 365 on a "Forms" submission.

 

I have screenshots available below.

 

{
 "status": 400,
 "message": "Ambiguous binding is present. Resolve by sending lookup_type property.",
 "source": "dynamicscrmonline-ncus.azconn-ncus.p.azurewebsites.net",
 "debugInfo": "clientRequestId: 93f78905-f66b-4e5c-80a0-ff21a62542f5"
}

Let me know if you need further details, I am quite naive with flow.

    Hi,

     

    Please follow the below steps how to get contactid. Similar techique you can use to get the customerid as well.

    First declare a variable called contactid. Then use the list records using the filtery query to get the contact. Assign the contact id to variable. Finally map contactid to Create new record.

    Thanks for your reply.

     

    I'm not sure where to "list records by Filter query."  Is this an option as shown below?

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    Looks like Case entity primarycontactid and _customerid_value both are expecting a GUID which is a lookup value. You need to find the GUID by using List records by Filter Query. The map the id to Create a new record.
