CRM 2013: Condition for attribute 'template.templatetypecode': null is not a valid value for an attribute. Use 'Null' or 'NotNull' conditions instead.

Lately I was fighting with an issue that on some CRM instances the default email templates view in the Templates section of CRM 2013 did not show up and only showed me this error message:

Condition for attribute 'template.templatetypecode': null is not a valid value for an attribute. Use 'Null' or 'NotNull' conditions instead.

After searching for a long time I found the simple bug. Throught migration from 4.0 to CRM 2013 over CRM 2011 and changing customizations it seemed that CRM got messed up or was not able to handle the changes very well.

The issue here was to go to the views section of the Email Templates entity and to make sure there is only ONE default public view. If there are two you will get strange system behavior.

I fixed this problem through updating the isdefault property of the second unwanted default view in the SavedQueryBase data table. The id of this view  you can retrieve by openen the view and by copying it out from the URL.

Én voilá the problem was solved and the view worked again.

    I am getting the same error on the Product Form when adding the value to Price List Field.
    what can be the reason for this?

    Condition for attribute 'productpricelevel.productid': null is not a valid value for an attribute. Use 'Null' or 'NotNull' conditions instead.

Here are a few links to articles that will help you installing the pre-requisites (Microsoft PowerApps CLI)  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/component-framework/get-powerapps-cli Other good references to get into this topic: https://toddbaginski.com/blog/how-to-create-a-powerapps-pcf-control/ https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/component-framework/create-custom-controls-using-pcf I looked through the Guido Preite’s https://pcf.gallery/ which will help you find appropriate use cases / examples for your own needs. It did not take very long to find a simple example to start with: Andrew Butenko's https://pcf.gallery/address-autocomplete/ A few moments later I had the idea to create yet another address autocomplete...

Power Automate: Avoid Apply to Each for List rows action (DataVerse)

If you do not want to use the Apply to Each loop after a Dataverse List rows action you can use the following in a Dynamic Content / Expression box to directly use a field's value in e.g. Compose action: first(outputs('List_rows')?['body/value'])?['apx_fullpath'] instead of apx_fullpath you can use whatever field name you need for the entity that's been queried before.
