[C++]
public: String* CreateAndRetrieve(
  CUserAuth*  Caller,
  String*  InContractXml
);

Parameters

Caller

Specifies the identity of the caller. To perform this action, the caller must have the prvCreateContractTemplate and prvReadContractTemplate privileges. See CUserAuth.

[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";

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

string strErrorMsg;

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

   // Set up the XML string for the new contract template

   strContractTemplateXml += "<name>Contract Template 3</name>";
   strContractTemplateXml += "<abbreviation>CT2</abbreviation>";
   strContractTemplateXml += "</contracttemplate>";

   // Create the contract template, and then retrieve it
