The CRM SDK says this is possible but the following code fails. Does anyone know why?
var request = new RetrieveMultipleRequest();
var query = new QueryExpression(EntityName.asyncoperation.ToString());
query.ColumnSet = new AllColumns();
request.Query = query;
var response = _connection.Execute(request);
The error is:
<error>\n
<code>0x80040216</code>
<description>An unexpected error occurred.</description>
<type>Platform</type>
</error>
If I change the entity name to account, it works fine.
Found the answer. It appears that it doesn't like the "new AllColumns()" bit. If I specify a column list it works.

I got this error when I try to reopen appointment: "Cannot update Closed or Cancelled Activity"
here is my code:
var connectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["crmConnection"].ConnectionString;
var conn = CrmConnection.Parse(connectionString);
var service = new OrganizationService(conn);
var stateRequest = new SetStateRequest
{
State = new OptionSetValue(0),
Status = new OptionSetValue(1),
EntityMoniker = entity.ToEntityReference()
};
service.Execute(stateRequest);
I'm getting the entity from RetrieveMultiple(query) where StateCode is "Cancel" or "Complete". I run this code in a Console Application and get that error.
PS:
I wrote my code in the new version but I got this error again:
entity.SetAttributeValue<OptionSetValue>("statecode", 0);
entity.SetAttributeValue<OptionSetValue>("statuscode", 1);
var request = new UpdateRequest { Target = entity };
var response = (UpdateResponse)_organizationService.Execute(request);
Finally, after 8 hours working I got it!. It's so ridiculous but it worths to know. this error raises from another plugin that I had registered before. That plugin was registered on "Update" message when "StateCode" field has changed. I disable that step and my deprecate function has worked!
in exception message, you cannot understand which plugin raise the error.
Please provide the total code. I see here, you statened a new OrganizationService, as you have used one before (for retrieveMultiple).
Maybe using the same service, just fixes your problem :), but with total code we can maybe help more.
In addiont to the deprecated discussion. You use CRM 2015, as it seems to be flagged with it? It is only depricated in D365 as i know (hopefully i am not mistaken here ;) )
I'm doing a bit of a technical investigation into the ExecuteTransactionRequest. It's not something I've ever used before so I knocked up a very quick experiment just to see how it works. However, when sending off the request the OrganizationService is throwing back a FaultException (below). What I believe is happening is that my version of CRM doesn't support that OrganizationRequest. Although I'm pretty sure I have the right assemblies and version.
Can anyone please shed some light on what I'm missing?
CRM Deployment Version: 7.0.1.129
Organization Version: 7.0.2.53
Microsoft.Xrm Assembly Version: 7.0.0.0 (Also happened with 8.0.0.0)

CrmConnection connection = CrmConnection.Parse(GetCrmConnectionString("unmanaged"));

ExecuteTransactionRequest transactionRequest = new ExecuteTransactionRequest()

Update
Quick look at your code, looked like it was because of the CreateRequest not being added to the collection. After your comments and double checking the crm organization version, you are on CRM 2015 (not on update 1). ExecuteTransactionRequest is only supported by CRM 2015 update 1 (version 7.1.XXX) and up (version 8.0.XXX) organizations. So unfortunately, your query won't work until at least the 2015 update is applied to the organization.
You did not add your create request to the ExecuteTransactionRequest - Requests collection. An empty request collection is causing the exceptions most likely.
ExecuteTransactionRequest transactionRequest = new ExecuteTransactionRequest()
{
ReturnResponses = true,
Requests = new OrganizationRequestCollection()
};
Entity newContact = new Entity("contact");
newContact["firstname"] = "Stack";
newContact["lastname"] = "Overflow";
CreateRequest createRequest = new CreateRequest()
{
Target = newContact
};
transactionRequest.Requests.Add(createRequest); //missing
ExecuteTransactionResponse transactionResponse = (ExecuteTransactionResponse)orgService.Execute(transactionRequest);
i have a wcf which connects to crm (on prem) to retrieve an account record. i can see when the entity is retrieved it does not hold the current record i.e. some field will still hold the old column value. i tried with various merge option with no avail. please see the code below
using (XrmServiceContext cContext = new XrmServiceContext(con))
{
Entity ent = cContext.Retrieve(ConstantKVP.AccountSchema.ENTITY_LOGICAL_NAME, AccountId, new ColumnSet(true));
}
any suggestions?
Is it possible the data is being cached?
cContext.TryAccessCache(cache => cache.Mode = OrganizationServiceCacheMode.Disabled);
I took this approach for a CrmOrganizationServiceContext, so perhaps the same theory applies.
After save use clear changes cContext.ClearChanges();
For retrieves use MergeOption.OverwriteChanges
Or
Create a new XrmServiceContext object by passing a newed up organizationservice:
var uncachedOrganizationService = new OrganizationService("Xrm");
var uncachedXrmServiceContext = new XrmServiceContext(uncachedOrganizationService);
var ent = uncachedXrmServiceContext.Retrieve(ConstantKVP.AccountSchema.ENTITY_LOGICAL_NAME,AccountId,new ColumnSet(true));
Im working with Microsoft Dynamics CRM. The client is requesting to be able to add notes from a webresources.
I thought that something like this will do the trick:
Xrm.Utility.openEntityForm("annotation", null, parameters);
or even the classic
/main.aspx?etn=annotation&pagetype=entityrecord#
But I receive a "Query Builder Error: The specified record type does not exist in Microsoft Dynamics CRM"
It seems like notes is not something we can open in that way but I cannot found the right way (if even exists!)
Any help?
Maybe this can help someone in the future: This will open a dialog with the Regarding field filled, the textboxs for title and description and the attachments field.
function createNote() {
var EntityID = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId(); // to get entity id
var ServicerURL = Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl(); // to get server url
var etc =Xrm.Page.context.getQueryStringParameters().etc; // to get entity type code, make sure not to hard code it, because it could changed in another deployment
var NotesURL = ServicerURL + "/notes/edit.aspx?pId=" + EntityID + "&pType=" + etc;
var features = "copyhistory=no,top=110,left=280,width=600,height=400";
window.open(NotesURL, "", features);
}
I'm really scratching my head with this. I'm trying to use the Dynamics CRM SDK to update an account record. No matter what I try, it's failing. Here goes.
Account sampleAccount = CrmAccount.GetAccountsBySubmissionCode(crmService, "ERZZUP").Single<Account>();
sampleAccount.Name = "AMC Edited";
crmService.Update(sampleAccount);
Gives the error: EntityState must be set to null, Created (for Create message) or Changed (for Update message)
XrmServiceContext ctx = new XrmServiceContext(crmService);
Account sampleAccount = CrmAccount.GetAccountsBySubmissionCode(crmService, "ERZZUP").Single<Account>();
sampleAccount.Name = "AMC Edited";
ctx.UpdateObject(sampleAccount);
ctx.SaveChanges();
Gives the error: The context is not currently tracking the 'account' entity.
XrmServiceContext ctx = new XrmServiceContext(crmService);
Account sampleAccount = CrmAccount.GetAccountsBySubmissionCode(crmService, "ERZZUP").Single<Account>();
sampleAccount.Name = "AMC Edited";
ctx.Attach(sampleAccount);
ctx.UpdateObject(sampleAccount);
ctx.SaveChanges();
Gives the error: The 'account' entity is already attached to a context.
For reference,
1. The Account object is created by the SDK Early Bound Code Generation Tool
2. crmService is the IOrganizationService connection object
3. GetAccounts ... performs a LINQ query and return an IEnumerable
Please help.
Thanks,
Chris.
Refer to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg695783.aspx, particularly the "Multiple Data Contexts" part. It seems you're using multiple contexts to track the entities. The CrmAccount.GetAccountsBySubmissionCode method just hides this from you.
Make sure within the CrmAccount.GetAccountsBySubmissionCode method to dispose of the context/service before returning the IEnumerable<Account>, or make sure you use the same context/service to Update.
