ReportGiven the name of an entity and the name of an option set field, Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Messages can retrieve all the labels and corresponding integer values for an option set.
Simply build a new RetrieveAttributeRequest and iterate over the response like so:
var attributeRequest = new RetrieveAttributeRequest
{
EntityLogicalName = "entityName",
LogicalName = "attributeName",
RetrieveAsIfPublished = true
};
var attributeResponse = (RetrieveAttributeResponse)service.Execute(attributeRequest);
var attributeMetadata = (EnumAttributeMetadata)attributeResponse.AttributeMetadata;
var optionList = (from o in attributeMetadata.OptionSet.Options
select new { Value = o.Value, Text = o.Label.UserLocalizedLabel.Label }).ToList();
optionList now contains a list of all option set options where each object in the list has a Value property and a Text property.
To retrieve a given option set value for a label, use a Linq query:
var activeValue = optionList.Where(o => o.Text == "Active")
.Select(o => o.Value)
.FirstOrDefault();
