Re: Javascript/WebAPI/Dataset Question
Hi Tim,
I assume you are doing this in the data entry module. A bit hard to say
without knowing exactly what kind of information you need, but to me this
looks like a perfectly viable way of retrieving org unit info. That org
unit request is quite cheap.
regards,
Lars
