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 instance.

The following example disassociates some task records from an account with optional parameters:

/// <summary>
/// Demonstrates the DisassociateRequest class
/// </summary>
/// <param name="service">Authenticated IOrganizationService instance</param>
static void DisassociateRequestExample(IOrganizationService service)
{
    // The account record
    Guid accountId = new("ace7042d-1871-ee11-9ae7-000d3a993550");
    EntityReference primaryRecordReference = new("account", accountId);

    // Task records associated with the account
    EntityReferenceCollection recordsToDisassociate = new() {
        { new EntityReference("task", new Guid("bbe7042d-1871-ee11-9ae7-000d3a993550")) },
        { new EntityReference("task", new Guid("b1a65033-1871-ee11-9ae7-000d3a993550")) }
    };

    // The relationship SchemaName
    string relationshipName = "Account_Tasks";

    // Prepare the request
    DisassociateRequest request = new()
    {
        RelatedEntities = recordsToDisassociate,
        Relationship = new Relationship(relationshipName),
        Target = primaryRecordReference
    };

    // Set a shared variable that a plug-in can access
    request["tag"] = "RecordsDissasociatedBySampleCode";
    // Bypass plug-in logic if caller has prvBypassCustomPlugins privilege
    request["BypassCustomPluginExecution"] = true;
    // Don't trigger any flows for this operation
    request["SuppressCallbackRegistrationExpanderJob"] = true;

    // Send the request
    service.Execute(request);
}

Remarks

Usage

Pass an instance of this class to the Execute(OrganizationRequest) method, which returns an instance of DisassociateResponse.

Privileges and Access Rights

To perform this action, the caller must have privileges on the tables and access rights for records specified by the Target and RelatedEntities properties.

Notes for Callers

Generally, it is easier to use the IOrganizationService.Disassociate method rather than this class. Use this class if you want to apply optional parameters.

This operation removes multiple associations in one transaction between the record specified by the Target property and each record in the RelatedEntities property for the relationship specified in the Relationship property.

You don't need to know the details about the relationship to use this message. You only only need to know the relationship SchemaName property value.

Both one-to-many and many-to-many relationships inherit their SchemaName property from RelationshipMetadataBase.SchemaName. By specifying the unique name of the relationship, Dataverse understands the type of relationship and removes the appropriate data.

For a one-to-many relationship, this operation removes the lookup column values specified by the OneToManyRelationshipMetadata.ReferencingAttribute property in the related record for the relationship you specify. You don't need to know the name of the lookup column.

For a many-to-many relationship, this operation deletes a record in the intersect table for the relationship. You don't need to know the name of the intersect table, Dataverse will know to use the intersect table specified by the ManyToManyRelationshipMetadata.IntersectEntityName property for the relationship you specify.

Supported Tables

You can use this method to disassociate any records that participate in a relationship. You can find the default relationships for common Dataverse tables listed in the Dataverse table/entity reference. For all tables and relationships in your environment, you can use a table definition browser like the one described in Browse table definitions in your environment.
