Hi,
I want to update a record on click of custom button from home page. How can we update specific record in Dynamics 365 using code?
Hi, at this moment we don't have a feature to perform an operation against D365 directly through the Portal
the good news is.. this is on the roadmap and should be available (in preview) somewhere around June 2020
what we know at this moment is that it will be an API (similar to the D365 Web API) with operations to Create/Update/Delete records at a first stage, and later on they would add additional methods such as calling actions etc
if you can't wait until this is available there are alternatives
1 - what exactly do you need to be updated? perhaps you could have an entity form embedded in the home page with very simple fields?
2 - use a companion app, basically you can have your custom API hosted (preferably) on Azure and do whatever you want there:

3 - use the portal actions approach: https://community.dynamics.com/365/b/udssystems/posts/https-uds-systems-blog
