In this article, I would like to talk about actions. Actions are a way to combine several operations in one place and make them available as a single method. In other words, Actions provide the ability to define a single verb (or message) that matches an operation you need to perform for your business. Actions are heavily used by Microsoft to create additional SDK messages which can be later executed from your plugins, workflows or javascript. You can create actions using low code approach as well as using Dynamics CE SDK. Low code approach is quite simple to use, so I would like to focus on creating actions using code.

During one of my Dynamics CRM projects, I faced the request where a customer asked to change the behavior of some processes in the system. That’s was the legacy implementation of Dynamics CRM 2011 and customer was not able to provide the source code of the plugins, because all responsible people have already left the company. The codebase was big enough, so I decided to analyze if it would be possible to update the behavior of some processes without the source code.
