How to set the output parameter in plug-in code so the javascript caller of the custom action will be able to read it?
Custom action is implemented in a plugin. There is an empty process (action) defined to specify input and output parameters. The plugin is registered at step 40.
Calling a custom action via javascript with ajax call to organization service using a SOAP message, which calls the action using the message 'new_NameOfAction'.
The code executes normally and returns a success response to the javascript caller.
The output parameter is set like this in the plug in code:
localContext.PluginExecutionContext.OutputParameters[Outputs.FieldErrors] = "some field error";
However, upon return to the javascript caller, the field is always null.
