Статия
07/22/2016

Applies To: Dynamics CRM 2015

This sample code is for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2015 and Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online 2015 Update. This code can be found in the following location in the download package:

SampleCode\CS\ModernAndMobileApps\ModernOdataApp

Download the Microsoft Dynamics CRM SDK package.

Requirements

This sample requires the Microsoft.Preview.WindowsAzure.ActiveDirectory.Authentication and Microsoft.IdentityModel.Clients.ActiveDirectory NuGet packages. These packages are automatically downloaded and installed when you load the project’s solution.

For more information about the requirements for running the sample code provided in this SDK, see Use the sample and helper code.

Tiled user interface of the sample app

This sample shows how to write a Windows 8.1 desktop modern application that can send requests to the organization web service without linking to the SDK assemblies. This sample uses the Microsoft Azure Active Directory Authentication Library (ADAL) and the OData protocol.

While there are seven tiles displayed on the main app page, only the Accounts and Tasks tiles are connected to event handler code. The other tiles are just placeholders.

The example code is configured for use with the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online server and a fictitious organization, but can be used with an IFD server also.

Code snippets showing just the key sections of the full sample are shown later in this topic.

Example

The following code snippet shows how to authenticate the user with the organization web service.

            }
        }
    }
}

For this code to work, you must first register your app with a supported identity provider (AD FS or Microsoft Azure Active Directory). Next, you must set the variable values for _clientID and CrmServiceUrl in the code. The value for client ID was defined during app registration.

Example

The following code snippet shows how to retrieve entity records from the organization web service using OData protocol code in an HTTP request. The authentication access token is placed in the authorization header.


using System.Net.Http;
using System.Net.Http.Headers;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace ModernOdataApp
{
    public static class HttpRequestBuilder
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// Retrieve entity record data from the organization web service. 
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="accessToken">The web service authentication access token.</param>
        /// <param name="Columns">The entity attributes to retrieve.</param>
        /// <param name="entity">The target entity for which the data should be retreived.</param>
        /// <returns>Response from the web service.</returns>
        /// <remarks>Builds an OData HTTP request using passed parameters and sends the request to the server.</remarks>
        public static async Task<string> Retrieve(string accessToken, string[] Columns, string entity)
        {
            // Build a list of entity attributes to retrieve as a string.
            string columnsSet = "";
            foreach (string Column in Columns)
            {
                columnsSet += "," + Column;
            }

            // The URL for the OData organization web service.
            string url = CurrentEnvironment.CrmServiceUrl + "/XRMServices/2011/OrganizationData.svc/" + entity + "?$select=" + columnsSet.Remove(0, 1) + "";

            // Build and send the HTTP request.
            HttpClient httpClient = new HttpClient();
            httpClient.DefaultRequestHeaders.Authorization = new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Bearer", accessToken);
            HttpRequestMessage req = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Get, url);
            req.Method = HttpMethod.Get;

            // Wait for the web service response.
            HttpResponseMessage response;
            response = await httpClient.SendAsync(req);
            var responseBodyAsText = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();

            return responseBodyAsText;
        }
    }
}
