Remarks

Message Availability

This message works regardless whether the caller is connected to the server or offline.

Usage

Pass an instance of this class to the Execute method, which returns an instance of FetchXmlToQueryExpressionResponse.

Privileges and Access Rights

For a complete list of the required privileges, see FetchXmlToQueryExpression message privileges.

Notes for Callers

The use of the keyword Distinct in query expressions is different from the FetchXML query language. When mapping a query from Fetch to QueryExpression, results will not be consistent if the Distinct keyword is used in the FetchXML string.

Examples

The following example shows how to use this message. For this sample to work correctly, you must be connected to the server to get an IOrganizationService interface. For the complete sample, see the link later in this topic.
