    Hi @SrikanthAkondi ,

     

    Do you want to retrieve current record’s GUID in embedded canvas app?

     

    If you do, you could achieve your need by following steps:

     

    1. Add a customize card in the form.

    2. Select the card, insert a TextInput box or Label in the card.

    3. Set the Text of the Label or TextInput to: GUID(First(ModelDrivenFormIntegration.Data).ItemId)

     

    4. Save and publish the canvas app and Model-driven app.

     

    Now you could see the GUID in the embedded canvas app:

    Hope this helps.

    Hi @SrikanthAkondi ,

     

    Update: I made more tests and found an easy way to retrieve the GUID of current record:

    ModelDrivenFormIntegration.Item.Account  //Account is the Unique Identifier field of Account Entity

     

    So you could replace that with the Unique Identifier field of the entity your are working with.
