Syntax

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Function RetrieveSharedPrincipalsAndAccess(
  ByVal Caller As CUserAuth,
  ByVal ContactId As String,
  ByRef Rights As UInt32()
) As CSecurityPrincipal()
[C#]
public CSecurityPrincipal[] RetrieveSharedPrincipalsAndAccess(
  CUserAuth  Caller,
  string  ContactId,
  out uint[]  Rights
);
[C++]
public: CSecurityPrincipal* RetrieveSharedPrincipalsAndAccess(
  CUserAuth*  Caller,
  String*  ContactId,
  unsigned long*  Rights
)  __gc[];

Parameters

Caller

Specifies the identity of the caller. The caller must have the prvReadContact privilege to perform this action. See CUserAuth.

ContactId

Specifies the ID of the contact.

Principals

[out]  Specifies the array of security principals. See CSecurityPrincipal.

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";

// 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";

// CRMContact proxy object
Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CRMContact contact = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CRMContact ();

   Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CSecurityPrincipal[] principals ;

   // Retrieve the principals that share this contact
   principals = contact.RetrieveSharedPrincipalsAndAccess(userAuth, strContactId, out rights);

}
