Hello,

Could you share the JavaScript you're using to get the key from your resource file? Additionally, can you confirm that the name of your XML file is ui_resources.xml?

Hi Chris ,

Thanks for replying.

Name of my XML file is ui_resources.xml.

I also tried copy pasting XML file from PLM/xml folder to my DR/xml folder. But I can't access that XML also.

JavaScript content is some business logic, which unfortunately I can't share here. But there is only one line which deals with accessing data from this file -

var text = aras.getResource("DR","test");

if i try

var text = aras.getResource("PLM","xxxx") - it works. xxxx = some id already present in ui_resources.xml

  Hello,
  
  I wasn't able to reproduce this issue in a local instance of 11.0 SP15 I have running. I added a folder called DR to my local instance and put a ui_resources.xml file in an /xml/ folder there. After that, I was able to get the resources I had defined by using aras.getResource("DR", "my_resource_key"); .
  
  Could you let me know what version of Aras Innovator you are using? You can check this under Help > About in the main menu of Aras Innovator. Additionally, can you try clearing your browser cache? It's possible an old cache is causing the new file to not be recognized.
