CRMArticleComment.Retrieve Method
The Retrieve method retrieves an existing article comment.
Syntax
[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Function Retrieve(
ByVal Caller As CUserAuth,
ByVal ArticleCommentId As String,
ByVal ColumnSetXML As String
) As String
[C#]
public string Retrieve(
CUserAuth Caller,
string ArticleCommentId,
string ColumnSetXML
);
[C++]
public: String* Retrieve(
CUserAuth* Caller,
String* ArticleCommentId,
String* ColumnSetXML
);
Parameters
Caller
Specifies the identity of the caller. To perform this action, the caller must have the prvReadArticle privilege and access rights on the object to be retrieved. See CUserAuth.
ArticleCommentId
Specifies the ID of the article comment to be retrieved.
ColumnSetXML
Specifies an XML string describing the set of columns to be retrieved. Passing an empty string or null returns all columns (Nothing or "" in VB .NET). You can find the valid column names in kbarticlecomment.xsd. See also ColumnSetXML Schema.
Return Value
Returns a String type that specifies the XML data containing the article comment retrieved. The fields that are returned depend on what fields are specified in the ColumnSetXML parameter. The XML schema is described by kbarticlecomment.xsd.
Remarks
This method always returns a single object so any filter criteria specified in the ColumnSetXML parameter are ignored.
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 strArticleCommentId = "{863538A6-7C5F-40EB-8EE4-F9421A062B61}";
// Set up the columns that you want to retrieve
string strColumnSetXml = "<columnset>";
strColumnSetXml += "<column>title</column>";
strColumnSetXml += "<column>kbarticleid</column>";
strColumnSetXml += "<column>commenttext</column>";
strColumnSetXml += "</columnset>";
// Retrieve the article comment
string strArticleCommentXml = articlecomment.Retrieve(userAuth, strArticleCommentId, strColumnSetXml);
}
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 );
