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.
// Create a Fetch query that we will convert into a query expression.
var fetchXml =
@"<fetch mapping='logical' version='1.0'>

</filter>
<link-entity name='account' from='accountid' to='customerid'>
<link-entity name='contact' from='parentcustomerid' to='accountid'>

// Run the query with the FetchXML.
var fetchExpression = new FetchExpression(fetchXml);
EntityCollection fetchResult =
_serviceProxy.RetrieveMultiple(fetchExpression);

// Display the results.
