Hello,

Try below code snippet:

Entity partyListEntity= new Entity();

partyListEntity= new Entity("activityparty");

partyListEntity["partyid"] = new EntityReference("systemuser", new Guid("CE08EE7F-4F36-E111-B6F6-0050569838D6"));

or

partyListEntity["addressused"] = "arpit.crmconsultant@gmail.com";
Entity[] aryTo = { partyListEntity};
emailCreate["to"] = aryTo;

Mark this is an answer If it helps.

Cheers

Hi Rahul,

Please have a look below code for the reference.

Apologies in advance for any syntax or build error, I have not tested it. But logic would be the same.

EntityCollection toCollection = (EntityCollection)sourcentityObj["to"];
if (toCollection != null && toCollection.Entities.Count > 0)
{
// get value of 'TO' field from source entity
Entity toParty = toCollection[0]; //activityparty entity
EntityReference toRef = (EntityReference)toParty["partyid"]; //actual entity ref

// set value of 'TO' field in destination entity
Entity partyListEntity= new Entity();

partyListEntity = new Entity("activityparty");

partyListEntity["partyid"] = toRef;

Entity[] aryTo = { partyListEntity};

partyListEntity["to"] = aryTo;
}

or

EntityCollection Recipients = sourcentityObj.GetAttributeValue<EntityCollection>("to");

foreach (var party in Recipients.Entities)
{

// get value of 'TO' field from source entity
var partyName = party.GetAttributeValue<EntityReference>("partyid").LogicalName;

var partyId = party.GetAttributeValue<EntityReference>("partyid").Id;

// set value of 'TO' field in destination entity
Entity partyListEntity= new Entity();

partyListEntity= new Entity("activityparty");

partyListEntity["partyid"] = new EntityReference(partyName, partyId);

Entity[] aryTo = { partyListEntity};

partyListEntity["to"] = aryTo;

}

If found useful, please mark the answer as verified.
