CRMActivity.Close Method

The Close method sets the activity state to Closed.

Syntax

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Sub Close(
  ByVal Caller As CUserAuth,
  ByVal ActivityId As String,
  ByVal Status As Integer
)

[C#]
public void Close(
  CUserAuth  Caller,
  string  ActivityId,
  int  Status
);

[C++]
public: void Close(
  CUserAuth*  Caller,
  String*  ActivityId,
  long  Status
);

Parameters

Caller

Specifies the identity of the caller. To perform this action, the caller must have the prvWriteActivity privilege and access rights on the object to be closed. See CUserAuth.

ActivityId

Specifies the ID of the activity to be closed.

Status

Specifies the status of the activity. You can use this parameter to specify application status. See Remarks.

Return Value

No return value.

Remarks

Note   The Status parameter corresponds to Status Reason in the Microsoft CRM application. If you pass -1 for this parameter, the platform sets the status to the appropriate value for the Microsoft CRM application. You can use the RetrieveStatus method to retrieve the status codes used in the application.

If there is an error, SOAP throws an exception and the error message is reported in System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException.Detail.OuterXml.

All IDs passed to the platform are GUIDs wrapped in braces. For example: {6522D89A-A752-4455-A2B0-51494C6957C3}

Example

[C#
// strServer should be set with the name of the platform Web server
string strServer = "myservername";

// virtualDirectory should be set with the name of the Microsoft CRM
// virtual directory on the platform Web server
string virtualDirectory = "mscrmservices";
string strDir = "https://" + strServer + "/" + virtualDirectory + "/";

// BizUser proxy object
Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.BizUser bizUser = new Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.BizUser ();
bizUser.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
bizUser.Url = strDir + "BizUser.srf";

// CRMActivity proxy object
Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CRMActivity activity = new Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CRMActivity ();
activity.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
activity.Url = strDir + "CRMActivity.srf";
string strErrorMsg;
string strActivityId = "{33A081D8-ABFF-4103-9E9B-DB0A4B1FD48E}";

try
{
   Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CUserAuth userAuth = bizUser.WhoAmI();

   // Close the activity
   activity.Close(userAuth, strActivityId, -1);

}
catch (System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException err)
{
   // Process the platform error here
   strErrorMsg = ("ErrorMessage: " + err.Message + " " + err.Detail.OuterXml + " Source: " + err.Source );
}
catch (Exception err)
{
   // Process other errors here
   strErrorMsg = ("ErrorMessage: " + err.Message );
}
