Updated with Code. When an attachment is attached on quote i want that to be attached to email as well, i dont want it to be downloaded to my machine
Entity entity = (Entity)localContext.PluginExecutionContext.InputParameters["Target"];
if (entity.LogicalName != "quote")
return;
try
{
Quote quote = entity.ToEntity<Quote>();
if (quote.Attributes.Contains("ownerid") && quote.Attributes["ownerid"] != null)
{
ownerId = ((EntityReference)quote.Attributes["ownerid"]).Id;
}
localContext.Trace("ownerid" + ownerId);
if (quote.Attributes.Contains("customerid") && quote.Attributes["customerid"] != null)
{
custId = ((EntityReference)quote.Attributes["customerid"]).Id;
}
localContext.Trace("custid" + custId);
Entity fromParty = new Entity("activityparty");
fromParty["partyid"] = new EntityReference("systemuser", ownerId);
Entity toParty = new Entity("activityparty");
toParty["partyid"] = new EntityReference("account", custId);
Entity Email = new Entity("email");
Email.Attributes["from"] = new Entity[] { fromParty };
Email.Attributes["to"] = new Entity[] { toParty };
Email.Attributes["subject"] = "Annual Sales Report";
Email.Attributes["regardingobjectid"] = new EntityReference("quote", quote.Id);
Email.Attributes["ownerid"] = new EntityReference("systemuser", ownerId);
localContext.Trace("Creating email records" );
Guid EmailId = localContext.OrganizationService.Create(Email);
localContext.Trace("EmailId =" + EmailId);
QueryExpression queryExpressionForAnnotation = new QueryExpression()
{
EntityName = Annotation.EntityLogicalName,
ColumnSet = new ColumnSet(true),
Criteria = new FilterExpression
{
Conditions =
{
new ConditionExpression{
AttributeName = "ObjectId",
Operator = ConditionOperator.Equal,
Values ={quote.Id}
},
new ConditionExpression{
AttributeName = "statecode",
Operator = ConditionOperator.Equal,
Values ={"Active"}
}
}
},
TopCount = 1,
Orders ={
new OrderExpression{
AttributeName = "createdon",
OrderType = OrderType.Descending
}
}
};
localContext.Trace("Annnotation records " );
List<Entity> Annotationcollection = localContext.OrganizationService.RetrieveMultiple(queryExpressionForAnnotation).Entities.ToList();
Annotationcollection.ForEach(a =>
{
Annotation annotation = a.ToEntity<Annotation>();
ActivityMimeAttachment ama = new ActivityMimeAttachment();
ama.Subject = annotation.Subject;
string filename = "Report.pdf";
ama.FileName = filename;
byte[] filestream = new byte[] { };
ama.Body = Convert.ToBase64String(filestream);
ama.MimeType = "text/plain";
ama.AttachmentNumber = 1;
ama.ObjectId = new EntityReference(Email.LogicalName, EmailId);
localContext.Trace("creating Attachments");
Guid? guid = localContext.OrganizationService.Create(ama);
localContext.Trace("Attachment"+ama);
});
SendEmailRequest req = new SendEmailRequest();
req.EmailId = EmailId;
req.IssueSend = true;
req.TrackingToken = "";
SendEmailResponse res = (SendEmailResponse)localContext.OrganizationService.Execute(req);
}
catch (FaultException ex)
{
throw new InvalidPluginExecutionException("error", ex);
}
//error

Able to trace till 'Creating email records'
after that its failing.
When you want to do it ? at the time of attachment is done ?? then you need to write a plugin on annotation (notes) and need to check for regardingobjectid if it is related to quote then you can download and send email with attachment.
