    Hi. 

    We are using the following code to open a specific form: 

    function opennewfprm()
    {
    var parameters = {};
    parameters["formid"] = "d56528dd-f043-4009-ab44-c0cea7dc6963";
    Xrm.Utility.openEntityForm("lead", null, parameters);
    }

    However we need to use the specific name of the form instead of the GUID. 

    Anyone who knows if that is possible? 

    Thanks.

    Hello,

    That is not possible without additional development.

    I would suggest following:

    1. Build OData query that will fetch formid by form name like https://OrgName.crm.dynamics.com/xrmservices/2011/OrganizationData.svc/SystemFormSet?$select=FormId&$filter=Name eq 'Account'

    2. Retrieve formid and use it in your script.
