Posted on by Himanshu Kamboj 379

Hi,

I have a c# plugin, where I am using an aggregate fetch, and I have applied the groupBy property to a lookup attribute, now I need to retrieve the Id and Name of the group by records.

My fetch

In this SS, I have highlighted the line number 103 attribute, which is the lookup attribute and Now I need to retrieve this attribute id and name.

I have run this fetch through the fetch xml tester, you can see the SS below, here I am able to seen both values "Id" and "RecordsName". So like this I need to get the Id's and records name through my plugin code.

    Hi Himanshu,

    Here is a sample code for you:

    var fetchXml = @"
                  
                    
                      
                    
                  
                ";
var results = OrgService.RetrieveMultiple(new FetchExpression(fetchXml));
if (results.Entities.Any())
{
    // use the attribute alias to get the attribute
    var owerAlias = results.Entities.First().GetAttributeValue("aliasownerid");
    if(owerAlias != null && owerAlias.Value != null)
    {
        // convert AliasedValue to actual attribute type
        var owerRef = (EntityReference)owerAlias.Value;
        var id = owerRef.Id;
        var name = owerRef.Name;
    }
}

    You can replace the fetchXml with yours and follow the other code to get the attribute you want.
