Demonstrates

This sample shows how to create a user in an Active Directory environment using the IOrganizationService.Create method. A snippet showing just the key sections of the sample is shown first, followed by the Complete Sample Code.

Example


// Connect to the Organization service. 
// The using statement assures that the service proxy is properly disposed.
using (_serviceProxy = new OrganizationServiceProxy(serverConfig.OrganizationUri, serverConfig.HomeRealmUri,
                                                     serverConfig.Credentials, serverConfig.DeviceCredentials))
{
    _serviceProxy.EnableProxyTypes();

    CreateRequiredRecords();

    // Retrieve the default business unit needed to create the user.
    QueryExpression businessUnitQuery = new QueryExpression
    {
        EntityName = BusinessUnit.EntityLogicalName,
        ColumnSet = new ColumnSet("businessunitid"),
        Criteria =
        {
            Conditions =
    {
        new ConditionExpression("parentbusinessunitid", 
            ConditionOperator.Null)
    }
        }
    };

    BusinessUnit defaultBusinessUnit = _serviceProxy.RetrieveMultiple(
        businessUnitQuery).Entities[0].ToEntity<BusinessUnit>();

    //Create a new system user.
    SystemUser user = new SystemUser
    {
        DomainName = _domain + _userName,
        FirstName = _firstName,
        LastName = _lastName,
        BusinessUnitId = new EntityReference
        {
            LogicalName = BusinessUnit.EntityLogicalName,
            Name = BusinessUnit.EntityLogicalName,
            Id = defaultBusinessUnit.Id
        }
    };

    Guid userId = _serviceProxy.Create(user);

    Console.WriteLine("Created a system user {0} for '{1}, {2}'", userId, _lastName, _firstName); 
}
