    Hi,

    I was using following SOAP XML to invoke my custom action in CRM 2013. The custom action does not accept any input parameter. However, to invoke a custom action from JavaScript, you have to have a Target parameter passed in, else the action invocation used to fail.

    function ExecuteAction(actionName)
{
	// Creating the request XML for calling the Action
		requestXML += "<s:Envelope xmlns:s=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\">";
		requestXML += "  <s:Body>";
		requestXML += "    <Execute xmlns=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/xrm/2011/Contracts/Services\" xmlns:i=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\">";
		requestXML += "      <request xmlns:a=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/xrm/2011/Contracts\">";
		requestXML += "        <a:Parameters xmlns:b=\"http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/System.Collections.Generic\">";
		requestXML += "          <a:KeyValuePairOfstringanyType>";
		requestXML += "            <b:key>Target</b:key>";
		requestXML += "            <b:value i:type=\"a:EntityReference\">";
		requestXML += "              <a:Id>" + Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId() + "</a:Id>";
		requestXML += "              <a:LogicalName>" + Xrm.Page.data.entity.getEntityName() + "</a:LogicalName>";
		requestXML += "              <a:Name i:nil=\"true\" />";
		requestXML += "            </b:value>";
		requestXML += "          </a:KeyValuePairOfstringanyType>";
		requestXML += "        </a:Parameters>";
		requestXML += "        <a:RequestId i:nil=\"true\" />";
		requestXML += "        <a:RequestName>" + actionName + "</a:RequestName>";
		requestXML += "      </request>";
		requestXML += "    </Execute>";
		requestXML += "  </s:Body>";
		requestXML += "</s:Envelope>";
	

	var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
	req.open("POST", GetServiceUrl(), false)
	req.setRequestHeader("Accept", "application/xml, text/xml, */*");
	req.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "text/xml; charset=utf-8");
	req.setRequestHeader("SOAPAction", "http://schemas.microsoft.com/xrm/2011/Contracts/Services/IOrganizationService/Execute");
	req.send(requestXML);

	//refresh the page if the request was successful.
	if (req.status == 200)
	{
		if (refreshPage)
		{
			RefreshForm()
		}
	}
	else
	{
		Xrm.Utility.alertDialog(req.statusText + "\n" + req.responseXML.getElementsByTagName("faultstring")[0].textContent);
	}
}

    Now with SP 1 installed, the same JavaScript throws "Internal Server Error Unrecognized request parameter: Target" error. Why further break what was already broken and throw everybody's workaround out of whack?
