Hi,
Do you mean you need to filter lookup values by their content type? If so, please, modify Request items template of the Cross-site Lookup column following way:
Code: Select all
function (term, page) {
if (!term || term.length == 0) {
return "{WebUrl}/_api/web/lists('{ListId}')/items?$select=Id,{LookupField}&$orderby=Created desc&$top=10&" +
"$filter=ContentTypeId eq '0x010300C4DB8202DDA58A4B979AC8C1D217117D'";
}
return "{WebUrl}/_api/web/lists('{ListId}')/items?$select=Id,{LookupField}&$orderby={LookupField}&" +
"$filter=startswith({LookupField}, '" + encodeURIComponent(term) + "') and " +
"ContentTypeId eq '0x010300C4DB8202DDA58A4B979AC8C1D217117D'&$top=10";
}
Replace Id in the code above with your content type Id.

You can use Content type as any other field. Just drop it onto your form in Forms Designer and you will be able to get the selected content type Id via JavaScript:
Code: Select all
fd.field('ContentType').control()._el().find('select').val()
Use the selected value in the Request items template as I demonstrated above to filter the dependant Cross-site Lookup field.

I resolved this problem using different long way.
I have many content type and many pages on form designer.I created text column which has content type name.
And I set this column manuel(with javascript) for all content type pages.And then I got this field value from cross-site lookup.
But I will try your short way.
Thanks for your reponse..

Hi,
If you're using SharePoint Online, you can display the content type field in the read-only mode only by placing Plain or Rich text control with the following content:
