Retrieve and update an entity

The following sample retrieves an entity by using the RetrieveEntityRequest message. It then updates the entity to disable mail merge by setting the IsMailMergeEnabled property to false, and sets HasNotes to true in the UpdateEntityRequest to specify that the entity should include a relationship to the Annotation entity so that the entity can display notes.



RetrieveEntityRequest retrieveBankAccountEntityRequest = new RetrieveEntityRequest
{
 EntityFilters = EntityFilters.Entity,
 LogicalName = _customEntityName
};
RetrieveEntityResponse retrieveBankAccountEntityResponse = (RetrieveEntityResponse)_serviceProxy.Execute(retrieveBankAccountEntityRequest);
EntityMetadata BankAccountEntity = retrieveBankAccountEntityResponse.EntityMetadata;

// Disable Mail merge
BankAccountEntity.IsMailMergeEnabled = new BooleanManagedProperty(false);
// Enable Notes
UpdateEntityRequest updateBankAccountRequest = new UpdateEntityRequest
{
 Entity = BankAccountEntity,
 HasNotes = true
};



_serviceProxy.Execute(updateBankAccountRequest);


Dim retrieveBankAccountEntityRequest As RetrieveEntityRequest = New RetrieveEntityRequest With {
 .EntityFilters = EntityFilters.Entity,
 .LogicalName = _customEntityName
}
Dim retrieveBankAccountEntityResponse As RetrieveEntityResponse = CType(_serviceProxy.Execute(retrieveBankAccountEntityRequest), RetrieveEntityResponse)
Dim BankAccountEntity As EntityMetadata = retrieveBankAccountEntityResponse.EntityMetadata

' Disable Mail merge
BankAccountEntity.IsMailMergeEnabled = New BooleanManagedProperty(False)
' Enable Notes
Dim updateBankAccountRequest As UpdateEntityRequest = New UpdateEntityRequest With {
 .Entity = BankAccountEntity,
 .HasNotes = True
}
_serviceProxy.Execute(updateBankAccountRequest)

Delete a custom entity

The following sample uses the DeleteEntityRequest message to delete the entity with the logical name specified by the _customEntityName variable.


DeleteEntityRequest request = new DeleteEntityRequest()
{
 LogicalName = _customEntityName,
};
_serviceProxy.Execute(request);

Dim request As New DeleteEntityRequest() With {.LogicalName = _customEntityName}
_serviceProxy.Execute(request)
