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.Proxy.BizUser user = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.BizUser ();
user.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
user.Url = strDir + "BizUser.srf";
// SecRole proxy object
Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.SecRole secRole = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.SecRole ();
secRole.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
secRole.Url = strDir + "SecRole.srf";
// Declare the caller
Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CUserAuth userAuth = null;
string strErrorMsg;
try
{
// Get the UserAuth of the current logged-on user
userAuth = user.WhoAmI();
// Retrieve the role ID by name
string strRoleId = secRole.RetrieveIdFromName(userAuth, userAuth.MerchantId, "Sales Manager");
if (strRoleId != null)
{
string[] users = new string[1];
users[0] = userAuth.UserId;
string[] roles = new string[1];
roles[0] = strRoleId;
// Assign each of the roles to each of the users
secRole.AssignUsersToRoles(userAuth, users, roles);
}
}
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 );
