What this sample does

  1. The CreateandAssociateKBRecordtoIncident class Run method calls the CheckCRMVersion method, which detects if you are running the appropriate version of Dynamics 365 for the sample.

  2. The CheckKnowledgeManagementStatus method checks if the knowledge management is enabled for the Incident entity.

  3. The CreateRequiredRecords method creates the required records for the sample: a sample account and an incident record.

  4. Creates a sample KnowledgeBaseRecord record.

  5. Associates the sample KnowledgeBaseRecord record with the Incident record created earlier, checks if the association is successful, and then disassociates the records.

  6. Finally, the DeleteRequiredRecords method prompts you to delete the entity records created during the sample run:

    1. Type y, and press ENTER to delete the entity records from your organization.

    2. Type n, and press ENTER to leave the entity records in your organization. You will have to manually delete the entity records later if you want to return to the original state.
