I am trying to programmatically delete a relationship between two entities using a DeleteRelationshipRequest.
The request is failing with this error:
"The EntityRelationship(7d6c9bcb-bcfa-e211-bb16-005056930383) component cannot be deleted because it is referenced by 2 other components. For a list of referenced components, use the RetrieveDependenciesForDeleteRequest."
However, using the RetrieveDependenciesForDeleteRequest returns no dependencies.
When I try and delete through the front end, it fails and shows me that there are two dependencies - one is a system view, and one is a process.
Why does my RetrieveDependenciesForDeleteRequest not find these dependencies?
Here's the code I am using:
Share
Reportprivate void CheckRelationshipDependencies(string relationshipName, IOrganizationService service)
{
RetrieveRelationshipRequest rrreq = new RetrieveRelationshipRequest { Name = relationshipName };
RetrieveRelationshipResponse rrresp = (RetrieveRelationshipResponse)service.Execute(rrreq);
if (rrresp.RelationshipMetadata.SchemaName != null) {
Console.WriteLine("Found relationship with schema name " + rrresp.RelationshipMetadata.SchemaName + " and ID " + rrresp.RelationshipMetadata.MetadataId);
}
Guid? relationshipID = rrresp.RelationshipMetadata.MetadataId;
Console.WriteLine("Fetching dependencies for relationship " + relationshipID);
RetrieveDependenciesForDeleteRequest retrieveDependenciesForDeleteRequest = new RetrieveDependenciesForDeleteRequest
{
ComponentType = 3, // 3 = RELATIONSHIP msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg328546(v=crm.7).aspx
ObjectId = (Guid)relationshipID
};
RetrieveDependenciesForDeleteResponse retrieveDependenciesForDeleteResponse =
(RetrieveDependenciesForDeleteResponse)service.Execute(retrieveDependenciesForDeleteRequest);
Console.WriteLine("Found " + retrieveDependenciesForDeleteResponse.EntityCollection.Entities.Count + " dependencies");
}
and here's the output:
Found relationship with schema name bsp_college_bsp_student and ID 7d6c9bcb-bcfa-e211-bb16-005056930383
Fetching dependencies for relationship 7d6c9bcb-bcfa-e211-bb16-005056930383

I have the same question (0)
In fact, even the 'Show dependencies' action in the front end does not show any dependencies, but when you try and delete the relationship it fails, and only then does it actually show the dependencies which are preventing the deletion.
