Hi,

I have a requirement to create auto post with username hyperlink. I need to do it through plugin not OOB workflow.

I could create a post as below

Entity objPost=new Entity("post");

objPost["text"]="some text";

objPost["regardingobjectid"]=new EntityReference("contact",id);

objPost["source"]=new OptionSetValue(1);

service.Create(objPost);

But in text field I should need to show Loggedin username with hyperlink to user record. When I click on the username it should open the user record.

Is it possible to do the hyperlinks in text field from plugin?

Thanks

Bala

Hi,

Why don't you just create a post in context of the user that you want (you have something like:

IOrganizationServiceFactory factory = (IOrganizationServiceFactory)serviceProvider.GetService(typeof(IOrganizationServiceFactory));

var service = factory.CreateOrganizationService(this.PluginExecutionContext.UserId);)

but for that "UserId" you can put whatever userId you want (if the plugin is running on System Admin user).

After you do that, the post would be created in context of the user, so the user will be displayed as creator of the post and you would be able to click on this username and go to the user record.

I did not test this myself, but I think it should work
