Sample: Query metadata and detect changes

 

Applies To: Dynamics CRM 2015

This sample code is for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2015 and Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online 2015 Update. Download the Microsoft Dynamics CRM SDK package. 

The sample code can be found in the following locations in the download package:

SampleCode\CS\Metadata\MetadataQuery\MetadataQuerySample.cs

Requirements

For more information about the requirements for running the sample code provided in this SDK, see Use the sample and helper code.

Demonstrates

This sample shows how to use the classes and methods in the Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Metadata.Query and Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Metadata namespaces to query for specific items of metadata and then track changes to the organization metadata.

Example

This sample creates an in-memory cache of all option-set option labels for certain entities. Then, a custom entity that contains OptionSet attributes is added and the cache of option-set option labels is updated. Then a single option is added to one of the custom OptionSet attributes and the cache is updated to add it. Finally, the custom entity is deleted and the cache of option-set option labels is again updated to reflect this change.

The sample will display output similar to the following when it is complete.

  • 463 option labels for 5 entities added to the cache.

  • ClientVersionStamp: 296297!10/22/2012 21:41:57

  • Adding a custom entity named sample_SampleEntityForMetadataQuery with a custom optionset attribute named : sample_ExampleOptionSet

  • 8 option labels for 1 entities were added to the cache.

  • 471 Option Labels cached

  • No Option Labels removed.

  • ClientVersionStamp: 296646!10/22/2012 21:42:06

  • Adding an additional option to the sample_ExampleOptionSet attribute options.

  • 1 option labels for 1 entities were added to the cache.

  • 472 Option Labels cached

  • No Option Labels removed.

  • ClientVersionStamp: 296649!10/22/2012 21:42:16

  • Current Options: 472

  • Deleting the sample_SampleEntityForMetadataQuery custom entity

  • No option labels were added to the cache.

  • 9 Option Labels removed

  • 463 Total Option Labels currently cached

  • ClientVersionStamp: 297079!10/22/2012 21:42:34
