Sample: Create a reciprocal connection role (early bound)

  • 项目

This sample shows how to create the reciprocal connection roles. It creates a connection role for an account and a connection role for a contact, and then makes them reciprocal by associating them with each other. You can download the sample from here.

Note

This sample applies to both Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises) and Dataverse.

How to run this sample

To obtain a local copy of all samples and build them, follow these steps:

  1. Download or clone the Samples repo so that you have a local copy.
  2. (Optional) Edit the dataverse/App.config file to define a connection string specifying the instance/organization you want to connect to.
  3. Open the sample solution in Visual Studio and press F5 to run the sample. After you specify a connection string in dataverse/App.config, any sample you run will use that connection information.

If you don't specify a connection string in dataverse/App.config file, a dialog opens each time you run the sample, and you'll need to enter information about which instance or org you want to connect to and which credentials you want to use. This dialog caches previous connections so that you can choose a previously used connection.

What this sample does

The ConnectionRole and ConnectionRoleObjectTypeCode messages are intended to be used in a scenario where it contains data that is required to create a new connection role and connection role object type.

How this sample works

In order to simulate the scenario described in What this sample does, the sample will do the following:

Setup

  1. Checks for the current version of the org.
  2. The ConnectionRole message creates connection roles required for the sample.
  3. The ConnectionRoleObjectTypeCode message creates the connection role object type code record for account.
  4. The AssociateRequest message associates the connection roles with each other.

Demonstrate

  1. Perform initial request and cache the results, including the DataToken
  2. Update the records created in Setup
  3. Perform a second request, this time passing the DataVersion with the DataToken value retrieved from the initial request.
  4. Show the entity changes returned by the second request

Clean up

Display an option to delete the sample data that is created in Setup. The deletion is optional in case you want to examine the entities and data created by the sample. You can manually delete the records to achieve the same result.
