XRMToolbox Web Resource Manager Plugin Invalid file extension

[bipinshan]

Hi Experts,

We have a requirement to checkin all web resources from Dynamics CRM to Source control. And as part of this requirement we have decided to use XRMToolbox Web Resource Manager Plugin.

https://github.com/MscrmTools/MsCrmTools.WebResourcesManager

The problem which I am facing is with File Extension when I export web resources files to local drive. As you can see in below image, I have few JS which does not .js extension in web resource name and one has the extension. Now When I export the files to local drive I don't see the correct file extension for javascript and because of this I will face issues while editing this file from Visual studio.

Need your help and guidance on how to fix this particula issue.

Thanks,

Bipin

Hello @bipinshan,

As per Microsoft Standard you need to create a WebResource file with their extensions

For

Javascript -- new_Demo.js

Html -- new_Demo.html

else you will face such kind of issues. Don't ask for Documentation, it's a basic behaviour of MSCRM or Dataverse

Hi @rampprakash ,

Thank you for your reply!

Sure, I will not ask for any documenation/link/reference. 🙄

I can't go back and change the name of the web resource. And my actual project has more than 100 web resources in my system without extension. 

FYI - It was created by many developers and we can't blame them now.

Do you have any workaround to fix this issue?

Thank you again!

Hello @bipinshan,

That was hard, but unfortunately there is no possible way without recreation. Lets wait for others comments too
