This is seriously messed up. If I would like to remove five lookup values I need to send five delete messages...
I'm sad now.
Thank you for help, I have different issue now:
Could you please help with the following scenario ? I am running this code to delete a reference parentcustomerid_account
This is working successfully on DEV but when executed on different environment IFD / ADFS the request is 404 NOT FOUND
Do you have any idea ? Thank you
// [Org URI]/api/data/v8.2/contacts([contactid#])/parentcustomerid_account/$ref
contact1Uri = httpClient.BaseAddress + web_api + "contacts(" + myReader.Value.ToString
().ToLower() + ")/parentcustomerid_account/$ref";
HttpResponseMessage disassocResponse1 = await httpClient.DeleteAsync(contact1Uri);
if (disassocResponse1.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.NoContent)
Status code is 404 = NOT FOUND
Same code is successful on different environment
EDIT: just noticed you seem to have figured it out:)
Hi,
you don't need to send both guids to delete - as Scott mentioned, you just need to use this kind of url for the delete request:
.../api/data/v8.2/contacts(CONTACTID)/parentcustomerid_account/$ref
I manage to get everything done in 2 steps
- get account if for parentaccountid
- send delete request for disassociation.
Thank you for your help, it is not straight forward
contact1Uri = httpClient.BaseAddress + "v8.0/contacts(" + myReader.Value.ToString().ToLower() + ")";
//queryOptions = "?$select=fullname,annualincome&$expand=parentcustomerid_account($select=name)";
queryOptions = "?$select=fullname&$expand=parentcustomerid_account($select=accountid,name)";
HttpResponseMessage retrieveResponse1 = await httpClient.GetAsync(contact1Uri + queryOptions);
if (retrieveResponse1.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK) //200
{
retrievedContact1 = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<JObject>(
await retrieveResponse1.Content.ReadAsStringAsync());
Console.WriteLine("Contact Fullname {0}", retrievedContact1.GetValue("fullname"));
Console.WriteLine("Contact parentcustomerid_account {0}", retrievedContact1["parentcustomerid_account"]["accountid"]);
contactToDissasociateUri = httpClient.BaseAddress + "v8.0/accounts(" + retrievedContact1["parentcustomerid_account"]["accountid"].ToString().ToLower() + ")/contact_customer_accounts/$ref?$id="+ httpClient.BaseAddress + "v8.0/contacts(" + myReader.Value.ToString().ToLower() + ")";
HttpResponseMessage disassocResponse1 =
await httpClient.DeleteAsync(contactToDissasociateUri);
if (disassocResponse1.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.NoContent)
{
Console.WriteLine("Contact '{0}' dissociated from account '{1}'.",
retrievedContact1["fullname"], retrievedContact1["parentcustomerid_account"]["name"]);
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("Failed to disassociate entities for reason: {0}.",
disassocResponse1.ReasonPhrase);
throw new CrmHttpResponseException(disassocResponse1.Content);
}
Console.ReadKey();
Thank you for reply, looks like I need to send both guids:
- contact id
- account id ( that needs to be set to null)
Probably I am too new to this ...
The request should look like this
"xxxx/.../contact_customer_accounts$ref?$id=xxx/.../contacts(guid_contact)"
Which is very strange as I only need to set existing parent account to NULL, why do I need to send the existing value if that is going to be NULL anyway?
Also, I have issue when I tried to extract existing value if you can help
"?$select=fullname,annualincome&$expand=parentcustomerid_account($select=name)";
Hi,
You have to send a DELETE request.
E.g.
DELETE [Organization URI]/api/data/v8.2/opportunities(00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001)/customerid_account/$ref
From msdn.microsoft.com/.../mt607875.aspx
It is a bit odd - but this is the way that the OData spec defines it should be done!
Hope this helps
