Examples

The following example shows how to use this message. For this sample to work correctly, you must be connected to the server to get an IOrganizationService interface instance. This example also demonstrates how to validate that both tables are eligible to participate in an N:N relationship by using the CanManyToManyRequest class;

/// <summary>
/// Demonstrates creating many-to-many relationship
/// </summary>
/// <param name="service">The authenticated IOrganizationService instance</param>
static void CreateManyToManyExample(IOrganizationService service) {

    // Solution and language information
    string solutionUniqueName = "SolutionName";
    string prefix = "sample";
    int languageCode = 1033; //English

    // Information for First Table
    var tableOneSchemaName = "Account";
    var tableOneLogicalName = tableOneSchemaName.ToLower();
    var tableOneCollectionSchemaName = "Accounts";
    Label tableOneLabel = new(tableOneCollectionSchemaName, languageCode);

    // Information for Second Table
    var tableTwoSchemaName = "sample_BankAccount";
    var tableTwoLogicalName = tableTwoSchemaName.ToLower();
    var tableTwoCollectionSchemaName = "sample_BankAccounts";
    Label tableTwoLabel = new("Bank Accounts", languageCode);


    // Verify both tables are eligible;
    bool isTableOneEligible = IsEligible(tableOneLogicalName);
    bool isTableTwoElegible = IsEligible(tableTwoLogicalName);

    if (isTableOneEligible && isTableTwoElegible)
    {
        // Create the request
        CreateManyToManyRequest request = new() {
            IntersectEntitySchemaName = $"{prefix}_" +
                    $"{tableOneCollectionSchemaName}_" +
                    $"{tableTwoCollectionSchemaName}",
            ManyToManyRelationship = 
                new ManyToManyRelationshipMetadata() { 
                    SchemaName = $"{prefix}_" +
                        $"{tableOneCollectionSchemaName}_" +
                        $"{tableTwoCollectionSchemaName}",
                    Entity1LogicalName = tableOneLogicalName,
                    Entity1AssociatedMenuConfiguration = 
                        new AssociatedMenuConfiguration()

                                Order = 10000
