  • Article

This sample shows how to book or schedule an appointment by using the BookRequest message.

SDK for .NET: Book an appointment sample code

How to run this sample

  1. Download or clone the Samples repo so that you have a local copy.
  2. (Optional) Edit the dataverse/App.config file to define a connection string specifying the Microsoft Dataverse instance you want to connect to.
  3. Open the sample solution in Visual Studio and press F5 to run the sample. After you specify a connection string in dataverse/App.config, any sample you run will use that connection information.

If you do not specify a connection string in dataverse/App.config file, a dialog will open each time you run the sample and you will need to enter information about which Dataverse instance you want to connect to and which credentials you want to use. This dialog will cache previous connections so that you can choose a previously used connection.

Those samples in this repo that require a connection to a Dataverse instance to run will include a linked reference to the dataverse/App.config file.

What this sample does

The BookRequest message is intended to be used in a scenario to book or schedule an appointment.

How this sample works

In order to simulate the scenario described in What this sample does, the sample will do the following:

Setup

  1. Checks the current version of the org.
  2. Gets the current user information and creates the ActivityParty instance.

Demonstrate

Creates the appointment instance using the BookRequest message and verifies that the appointment has been scheduled or not.

Clean up

Display an option to delete the records created in the Setup. The deletion is optional in case you want to examine the tables and data created by the sample. You can manually delete the records to achieve the same result.
