It seems like the forum breaks some posted links, after pasting the pieces together I was able to get a link to open, but got the error:
Something went wrong
Message
Sorry, the current user does not have permission to access this resource.
Error code
PermissionDenied
And yes, I was logged into LCS in that browser instance, so not sure what the problem was.
It seems strange to me, this is very clearly a bug in Dynamics 365, but instead of simply fixing the bug, instead Microsoft goes in the opposite direction and deletes posts where a workaround was posted. It seems like a strange strategy to me.
As for the index, I tried making the change in AOT within Visual Studio (everything was disabled), as well as directly in the [AxDB] database while signed in as axlocaladmin (everything was also disabled).
I am going to have to learn some fundamentals here first it seems.
Thank you for helping me Baber, I've had a very long day today so I particularly appreciate it today!
