SecRole.RemovePrivilege Method

  • Article

The RemovePrivilege method removes a privilege from an existing role.

Syntax

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Sub RemovePrivilege(
  ByVal Caller As CUserAuth,
  ByVal RoleId As String,
  ByVal PrivilegeId As String
)
[C#]
public void RemovePrivilege(
  CUserAuth  Caller,
  string  RoleId,
  string  PrivilegeId
);
[C++]
public: void RemovePrivilege(
  CUserAuth*  Caller,
  String*  RoleId,
  String*  PrivilegeId
);

Parameters

Caller

Specifies the identity of the caller. To perform this action, the caller must have the prvWriteRole privilege and access rights on the object to be modified. See CUserAuth.

RoleId

Specifies the ID of the role to which the privilege is to be added. This ID is specified by the platform and is obtained at creation time or by a bulk retrieve.

PrivilegeId

Specifies the ID of the privilege that is to be removed.

Return Value

No return value.

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";

// strVirtualDirectory should be set with the name of the Microsoft CRM 
// virtual directory on the platform Web server
string strVirtualDirectory = "mscrmservices";

// Create the URL to the SRF files for platform objects
string strDir = "https://" + strServer + "/" + strVirtualDirectory + "/";

// BizUser proxy object
Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.BizUser user = new Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.BizUser ();
user.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
user.Url = strDir + "BizUser.srf";

// SecRole proxy object
Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.SecRole secRole   = new Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.SecRole ();
secRole.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
secRole.Url = strDir + "SecRole.srf";

// Privilege proxy object
Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.BizPrivilege privilege   = new Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.BizPrivilege ();
privilege.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
privilege.Url = strDir + "BizPrivilege.srf";

// Declare the caller
Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CUserAuth userAuth = null;

string strSecRoleXML = "";
string strRoleId = "";
string strErrorMsg = "";

try
{
   // Get the UserAuth of the current logged-on user
   userAuth = user.WhoAmI();

   // Set up the XML string for the role in the business unit of the caller
   strSecRoleXML = "<role>" + 
      "<name>Custom Security Role</name>" + 
      "<businessunitid>" + userAuth.MerchantId + "</businessunitid>" +
      "</role>";

   // The method returns the ID of the newly created role
   strRoleId = secRole.Create(userAuth, strSecRoleXML);

   // Create an array of privileges to add to the desired role
   Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CRolePrivilege[] rolePrivileges = new Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CRolePrivilege[2];
   for (int i=0;i<2;i++)
   {
      rolePrivileges[i] = new Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CRolePrivilege();
   }

   // Retrieve all the privileges
   string strPrivilegeSet = privilege.RetrievePrivilegeSet(userAuth);

   // prvCreateAccount
   rolePrivileges[0].Depth = Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.PRIVILEGE_DEPTH.BASIC;
   rolePrivileges[0].PrivilegeId = "{D26FE964-230B-42DD-AD93-5CC879DE411E}";

   // prvReadAccount
   rolePrivileges[1].Depth = Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.PRIVILEGE_DEPTH.DEEP;
   rolePrivileges[1].PrivilegeId = "{886B280C-6396-4D56-A0A3-2C1B0A50CEB0}";

   // prvWriteAccount
   rolePrivileges[2].Depth = Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.PRIVILEGE_DEPTH.GLOBAL;
   rolePrivileges[2].PrivilegeId = "{7863E80F-0AB2-4D67-A641-37D9F342C7E3}";

   // Add some privileges to the role
   secRole.AddPrivileges(userAuth, strRoleId, rolePrivileges);

   // Now remove one of the priviliges from the new role
   // prvReadAccount
   secRole.RemovePrivilege(userAuth, strRoleId, "{886B280C-6396-4D56-A0A3-2C1B0A50CEB0}");
}
catch(System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException err)
{
   // Process the platform error here
   strErrorMsg = ("ErrorMessage: " + err.Message + " " + err.Detail.OuterXml + " Source: " + err.Source );
}
catch(Exception err)
{
   // Process other errors here
   strErrorMsg = ("ErrorMessage: " + err.Message + "Source: " + err.Source );
}
