Dynamics 365 CRM UNIFIED CLIENT INTERFACE (UCI) and Classic Web Interface

In this blog, we will discuss some points are that are related to Dynamics 365 CRM web Interface. Points are as follows:-

1. Set Default View as Classic or Unified Client Interface (UCI).
2. Change the Interface on an immediate basis, using URL.
3. Check that, is Unified Client Interface or Classic Interface Using JavaScript?


1. Set Default View as Classic or Unified Client Interface(UCI):- 
                   
          We can set Unified Client Interface or Classic interface as by default. There are some steps to be followed:-



A. Open Settings in the main navigation and then click on Administration and now click on to System Settings.

Settings => Administration =>System Settings

B. Now we can see the option Use the new Unified Interface only (recommended)  inside General Tab.

C. Select Yes for Unified Interface or no for Classic View.



2.  Change the Interface on an immediate basis, using URL:-

Nowadays while opening new Dynamics Instance it shows UCI as defaults if you notice the URL then it will look like




So here if we use forceClassic=1 instead of forceUCI=1, then it will open Classic View.


  




3.  Check that, is Unified Client Interface or Classic Interface Using JavaScript?:-

Sometimes we need to check the Current Interface in our code. So we can use Xrm.Internal.isUci().

With the help of Xrm.Internal.isUci() it will return true or false value e.g. if it is UCI then it will return true, otherwise, for Classic View it will return a false value.
