CRMActivity.MakePrivate Method

The MakePrivate method makes the activity unavailable to anyone except the owner and the users that share the object. Only the owner of an activity can make it private. By default, all objects are public. See Remarks.

Syntax

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Sub MakePrivate(
  ByVal Caller As CUserAuth,
  ByVal ActivityId As String
)

[C#]
public void MakePrivate(
  CUserAuth  Caller,
  string  ActivityId
);

[C++]
public: void MakePrivate(
  CUserAuth*  Caller,
  String*  ActivityId
);

Parameters

Caller

Specifies the identity of the caller. To perform this action, the caller must be the object owner and have the prvWriteActivity privilege. See CUserAuth.

ActivityId

Specifies the ID of the activity to make private.

Return Value

No return value.

Remarks

Note   The Microsoft CRM application does not provide an interface for making an object private. However, if an object is made private by using a third-party solution, the application recognizes this setting.

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

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

string strErrorMsg;
string strActivityId = "{33A081D8-ABFF-4103-9E9B-DB0A4B1FD48E}";

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

   // Make it private
   activity.MakePrivate(userAuth, strActivityId);
}
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 );
}
