) As String
[C#]

  String*  EntityXML

Parameters

Caller

Specifies the identity of the caller. To perform this action, the caller must have the prvCreateTerritory privilege. See CUserAuth.

bizUser.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
bizUser.Url = strDir + "BizUser.srf";
