Create Feeds for Custom Entities

Many a times we will come across the scenario where in the clientwould like to see the feeds for custom entities.

Unfortunately, MS prevents us from creating an Activity Feed rule for custom entities. So we cannot configure this directly.

But, there is a perfectly safe workaround for this.

1.       Create a Workflow. i.e. if you want the feeds for creation of a custom entity then create a workflow to fire on create of the record.

2.       The workflow should create a post. Set the attributes as desired.

 

That is all there is to creating a post for a custom entity :)
