Update Account whit TeamsLink

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 15

I want to mass-update my Accounts in CRM with a link to the Microsoft TEams team that belongs to the account. I tried different approaches for solving this, but I get stuck at:

"A validation error occurred.  The length of the 'ca_teamslink' attribute of the 'account' entity exceeded the maximum allowed length of '100'

I have tried both API and CDS via Power Automate

I supply the accountId and the WebUrl of the Team.

Body of the Power Automate flow looks like this:

{
  "_ownerid_type"""
}
I am quite new to CRM but rather old in regards to API access to applications and Logic Apps, please bear with my lack of experience.
For me it looks like all attributes that start with ca_ are linked to a different table. I have not been able to find any documentation on the ca_ properties, so that is purely on my lack of knowledge. Is that true or is the ca_ attributes nomination documented somewhere?
What will I have to add or change in the call to CDS in order to convince it to update the TeamsLink to the weburl of the team?
Is this at all possible and is that attribute supposed to be used for the weburl at all?
I have the same question (0)

    Hello,

    In order to fix your issue you should open maker portal (https://make.powerapps.com), choose proper organization, open account entity, navigate to fields and increase the length of ca_teamslink field. I don't know what length would work for you - I assume that 500 should be enough.
