Adding New Field to MSD Custom Entity Sync Stuck on “Fieldname(syncing…)”

Description description

Issue Description:

When adding a new field to Dynamics Custom Entities Sync, the field just displays Fieldname(syncing…) and never actually syncs.

Resolution resolution

Issue Resolution:

The current workaround would involve the following:

  1. Disable the native sync in Admin > Microsoft Dynamics > Disable Sync.
  2. Navigate to the custom entity in Admin > Dynamics Entities Sync > Click on the custom entity.
  3. Remove all the dependencies associated with the custom entity.
  4. Disable the entity sync in the custom entity, as this will delete the custom entity table from the Marketo database.
  5. Refresh the schema by navigating to Admin > Dynamics Entities Sync > Refresh Schema. This is to ensure all updates from Dynamics are present in the schema.
  6. Re-enable the sync for the custom entity, including all the relevant fields to sync and select a filter and/or triggers as needed. This will recreate the table in the Marketo database.

If this is occurring on multiple custom entities, please complete one entities at a time or else the issue will recoccur.
