Hello.

Workflow configured to Start When="Record is created" and call assembly that call web service.
When I run it manually by "Run Workflow" it works, service is called.
But when record is created automatically in CRM, web service does not called.

What the difference ?

Hi,

Does your workflow triggered by the create event?

Kindly check the workflow logs. Do you encountered any error?

Hi Marina,

Please re-think of what you pass to the web service in the assembly, and figure when that data is being generated, consider all the plugins and workflows of the entity for the execution order.

Thanks,

I assume it is a Synchronous WF. Can you please use it as Asynchronous?

I assume you use the primary entity. Can you retrieve the values like this?

var entityId = context.PrimaryEntityId;

var entityLogicalName = context.PrimaryEntityName;

otherwise;

IWorkflowContext context = executionContext.GetExtension<IWorkflowContext>();

Entity entity = (Entity)context.InputParameters["Target"];
