public: String* CreateAndRetrieve(
  CUserAuth*  Caller,
  String*  InUoMXml
);

Parameters

Caller

[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.Platform.Proxy.BizUser bizUser = new Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.BizUser ();
bizUser.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
bizUser.Url = strDir + "BizUser.srf";

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

string strErrorMsg;
string strXml;
string strUoMId = "{1DF3CF17-543F-47D2-9A2F-8F6810B561EF}";

try
{
   Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CUserAuth userAuth = bizUser.WhoAmI();

   // Set up the XML string for the UoM
   strXml = "<uom><name>HalfDozen</name>";
   strXml += "<uomscheduleid>" + strUoMId + "</uomscheduleid>";
   strXml += "<quantity>6</quantity>";
   strXml += "</uom>";

   // Create the UoM, and then retrieve it
   string strUoMXml = uom.CreateAndRetrieve (userAuth, strXml);
}
catch (System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException err)
{
   // Process the platform error here
