CRMArticleComment.CreateAndRetrieve Method

The CreateAndRetrieve method creates a new article comment and then retrieves it.

Syntax

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Function CreateAndRetrieve(
  ByVal Caller As CUserAuth,
  ByVal ArticleCommentXML As String
) As String
[C#]
public string CreateAndRetrieve(
  CUserAuth  Caller,
  string  ArticleCommentXML
);
[C++]
public: String* CreateAndRetrieve(
  CUserAuth*  Caller,
  String*  ArticleCommentXML
);

Parameters

Caller

Specifies the identity of the caller. To perform this action, the caller must have the prvCreateArticle and prvReadArticle privileges. See CUserAuth.

ArticleCommentXML

Specifies an XML string containing the article comment information. The XML schema is described by kbarticlecomment.xsd.

Return Value

Returns a String type that specifies the XML data containing the new article comment. The XML schema is described by kbarticlecomment.xsd.

Remarks

The XML string returned from this method does not contain elements for fields where the value is null or contains empty strings. This improves performance by not sending more XML data than is necessary from the server to the client.

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";

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

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

   string strArticleId = "{03CF1041-553A-4B92-8207-98F04901ABC9}";

   // Set up the XML string for the article comment
   string strXml = "<kbarticlecomment>";
   strXml += "<kbarticleid>" + strArticleId + "</kbarticleid>";
   strXml += "<title> title 1</title>";
   strXml += "</kbarticlecomment>";

   string strArticleCommentXml = articlecomment.CreateAndRetrieve(userAuth, strXml);
}
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 );
