About the sample code

Sample	Description	Build target
ActivityParty	Demonstrates creating a letter activity.	.NET 9

The code sample demonstrates how to create a letter activity. Specifically, the samples demonstrate how to:

1. Connect to Dataverse using a connection string that defines required connection information
2. Create a letter activity to send to multiple contacts
3. Use the Dataverse organization service context to process the data changes
4. Use early-bound entity types

The code being demonstrated can be found in the Program.CreateLetter() method invoked by Program.Run().

The early-bound entity files in the DataModel project were generated using the following PAC CLI command: pac modelbuilder build. More information: pac modelbuilder

More general information can be found in README-code-design file.
