ArgumentNullException	An input argument or one of the required properties is nullNothingnullptra null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
ArgumentOutOfRangeException	expression is less than zero.
NotAuthorizedException	The user is not authorized to perform the requested operation.
EntityStateException	The expression has been deleted (update).
EntityDoesNotExistException	The expression being updated does not exist.
StringLengthValidationException	One if the property values is too long or too short.
DuplicateEntityNameException	An entity with this name already exists.
DuplicateEntityIdException	An entity with this Id already exists.

Remarks

Saves the specified Expression object to the database. Inserts a new Expression (if the identifier is zero), or updates an existing Campaign (if the identifier is not zero).

Use forceOverwrite to prevent overwriting the object in the database.

The forceOverwrite controls optimistic locking behavior. If the value is false and the record was modified in the database after it was loaded for editing, then an exception is raised.
