It looks like the plugin description is copied from Dashboard Transfer Tool, but this apparently transfers Views...

Hi,

I discovered a bug in the plugin. If I click on the Transfer Views button, I get an NullReferenceException. I have located the problem in the View.cs:
if (owner != null && owner.LogicalName == "team" || owner.Id != targetCurrentUserId)

Which should be changed to :
if (owner != null && (owner.LogicalName == "team" || owner.Id != targetCurrentUserId))

in order to work.

[Feature Requests]

1. Allow the user to filter the list of entities+views to "User Views", "System Views", or "All Views"
2. Add a source user filter to narrow the selection to the views owned by a specific user.
3. Additionally, if possible, allow the plugin user to select one, multiple or all views owned by the selected user for transfer - without clicking into each entity to find whether there are user views contained in that entity.

One or more of these options would be useful to quickly copy/update one or more of the user views owned by User A in Dev to Prod.

Amended commit message which made a duplicate reference I cannot remove. Now trying on item 3.

[Feature Request]

Allow the user to select the destination user for the views in the destination environment. - Or optionally, assign the views to the 'connection' user in the destination.

Currently if moving from one environment to another, unless the user is the same guid as the source environment, the transfer will fail.

@maerger commented on Tue Aug 04 2015

Yes please this would be a great feature!

Sounds neat!

When attempting to transfer views from CRM 2015 On-Premise to CRM 2016 Online, receiving error when I select transfer view. The GUID or user is not recognized in the online version. I am assuming this is due to the On-Premise version is accessing by a Domain\user name and the Online version that was migrated the GUID ID and login does not match.

Error:
Error while transferring views: Unable to find a user in the target organization with domain name or id.

Does anyone know how to get past this?

@MscrmTools commented on Fri Apr 01 2016

I guess you are right, the domain name is used to retrieve the targeted user account.
Except coding a mapping dialog, I don't see any possibility to fix this problem

Brilliant tool. Thanks so much.
The prompt "The User View....needs to be mapped to a user in the target system..." I have to keep entering this for the same user - the one listed under the target connection. Is there any way to default this to the user in the target connection to prevent a prompt each time (I am migrating 100s of Views for the same User).

Best wishes.
.

When transferring a User view from On prem to Online it cannot match the users.

Error cannot find user or team with name or ID.

Hi, this is a wonderful tool!
We operate in an environment that supports English and French, English being the base language.
I notice that when I transfer views via the tool, it does not include the French names for the views.
It is possible to include translatated view names in a future release of this tool?
Thanks!

As systemadministrator on trying to transfer a Lookup view i get the error message: "The view you tried to transfert already exists but you don't have read access to it. Get access to this view on the target organization to update it". What's the reason?

Error occurred when trying to display this plug-in: Unable to cast object type
'DamSim.ViewTransferTool.ViewTransferTool' to type 'XrmToolBox.Extensibility.PluginControlBase'.

This issue recently occurred.
XrmToolBox Version 1.2018.3.21
ViewTranferTool Version: 1.2016.10.3

This issue appears to be on the Solution TransferTool as well.

Thank you and please advise. We love using your tools

Hi,
It would be better while transfer view status need to check.
If source view is Inactive than target view also need to inactive.
Currently if inactive view is tranfered, target view create it as active view.
Means, View status is not sync.
