CRMProcess.CreateCondition Method
The CreateCondition method creates a condition for a rule.
Syntax
[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Function CreateCondition(
ByVal Caller As CUserAuth,
ByVal Condition As String
) As String
[C#]
public string CreateCondition(
CUserAuth Caller,
string Condition
);
[C++]
public: String* CreateCondition(
CUserAuth* Caller,
String* Condition
);
Parameters
Caller
Specifies the identity of the caller. The caller must have the prvCreateWorkflowProcess privilege to perform this action. See CUserAuth.
Condition
Specifies an XML string describing the condition. The XML schema is described by wfcondition.xsd.
Return Value
Returns a String type that specifies the ID of the new condition.
Remarks
If there is an error, SOAP throws an exception and the error message is reported in System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException.Detail.OuterXml.
All IDs passed to the platform are GUIDs wrapped in braces. For example: {6522D89A-A752-4455-A2B0-51494C6957C3}
Example
[C#]
// strServer should be set with the name of the platform Web server
string strServer = "myservername";
// virtualDirectory should be set with the name of the Microsoft CRM
// virtual directory on the platform Web server
string virtualDirectory = "mscrmservices";
string strDir = "https://" + strServer + "/" + virtualDirectory + "/";
// BizUser proxy object
Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.BizUser bizUser = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.BizUser ();
bizUser.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
bizUser.Url = strDir + "BizUser.srf";
// CRMProcess proxy object
Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CRMProcess process = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CRMProcess();
process.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
process.Url = strDir + "CRMProcess.srf";
string strErrorMsg;
try
{
Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CUserAuth userAuth = bizUser.WhoAmI();
string strRuleId = "{FC0C4939-7AD1-4BA8-B418-6D4D55459833}";
// Set up the XML string for the condition
string strConditionXml = "<wfcondition>";
strConditionXml += "<ruleid>" + strRuleId + "</ruleid>";
// For condition type, code is user defined
strConditionXml += "<conditiontypecode>4</conditiontypecode>";
strConditionXml += "</wfcondition>";
// Create the condition
string strConditionId = process.CreateCondition(userAuth, strConditionXml);
}
catch (System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException err)
{
// Process the platform error here
strErrorMsg = ("ErrorMessage: " + err.Message + " " + err.Detail.OuterXml + " Source: " + err.Source );
