Connect Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales, pick your AI tool and paste the prompt.
The problem
A quick fix lands on the wrong record or blanks a field
Correcting a phone, email or address seems trivial, but it is easy to edit the wrong record when names repeat, blank fields you did not mean to touch or reuse an email another record has. Each slip leaves bad data for someone else.
Without PopdockAI
- Search for the record and pick one of several
- Edit fields on the form by hand
- Blank a field by accident
- Reuse an email that belongs to someone else
With PopdockAI
- The one matching account, contact or lead is found by its ID
- Fields that cannot change are listed
- Emails and websites are validated and reused emails warned about
- After you confirm, only changed fields are sent and read back
The prompt
Use this prompt
Copy it into any AI tool connected to PopdockAI. Swap the values in braces for your own.
**Objective:** Apply `{changes}` to the `{record-type}` named `{record-name}` (id `{record-id}`), showing the before and after first.
**Step 1: Read the current values**
According to `{record-type}`:
* account: `dynamics-365-sales-get-accounts` with `account-name` = `{record-name}`
* contact: `dynamics-365-sales-get-contacts` with `full-name` = `{record-name}`
* lead: `dynamics-365-sales-get-leads` with `name` = `{record-name}`
If none or more than one record matches, stop and ask. Any other `{record-type}`: stop and say only account, contact and lead are supported.
**Step 2: Map and check the changes**
Map `{changes}` to the update tool's parameters. Only the fields that tool accepts can change; list anything requested that it cannot change. Check that emails look like emails and that a website starts with http:// or https://. If the change is to an email, call `dynamics-365-sales-get-contacts` or `dynamics-365-sales-get-leads` with `email` = the new value and warn if another record already uses it.
**Step 3: Confirm**
Show a before and after table of only the fields that change, and ask for one confirmation.
**Step 4: Write**
Call exactly one of `dynamics-365-sales-update-account`, `dynamics-365-sales-update-contact` or `dynamics-365-sales-update-lead` (matching `{record-type}`) with `id` = `{record-id}` and only the changed fields.
**Step 5: Verify**
Repeat the read from Step 1 (using the new name if the name changed) and confirm the values are stored.
**Rules & Guidelines:**
* No read tool returns a record's GUID. A GUID for an existing record must come from the user: it is the `id=` value in the browser address bar when the record is open in Dynamics 365. Never invent, reuse or guess one.
* The only write tools this prompt may call are `dynamics-365-sales-update-account`, `dynamics-365-sales-update-contact` and `dynamics-365-sales-update-lead`: one of them, once, after the confirmation.
* Pass only the fields being changed. Never blank a field the user did not mention.
**Validation:**
* If `{record-id}` is not a GUID, stop and explain where to find it.
* If `{changes}` is ambiguous (for example "update the phone" with no number), ask before writing.Who it's for
