Hi all,

As mentioned in CRM 2016 SDK, "SetParentTeamRequest" message is deprecated and "UpdateRequest" is recommended instead of that (you can find details here)

I did some practices with new way but there is no changes when I update the team using the codes below.

When I use "SetParentTeamRequest" for the same operation, the operation is completed smoothly and the tool is updated.
There is no problem with the other deprecated methods, but having problems with "SetParentTeamRequest".
Have you tried before and encountered a similar problem?

Entity entity = new Entity("team");
entity["teamid"] = teamId;
entity["businessunitid"] = new EntityReference("businessunit", businessUnitId);

this.OrganizationService.Update(entity);

can you try with this style of code?

Entity entity = new Entity("team"); entity.Id = teamId; entity["businessunitid"] = new EntityReference("businessunit", businessUnitId); this.OrganizationService.Update(entity);

Hi Guido,

Thank you about response, but nothing has changed.

BTW, I don't think there is no difference between "entity.Id = GUID" and "entity["teamid"] = GUID", because they referrer to PK. do you have any determination about them?

Emre,

If this doesn't work you should open a ticket with MS describing issue you experience.

Also I would suggest to leave or feedback at CRM Ideas portal - ideas.dynamics.com/ideas

Hi Andrii,

Before open ticket I want be sure about this issue what others have experienced. because it's one of very often unused requests (I think).

I observed SQL commands of requests on SQL profiler and "SetParentTeamRequest" and "UpdateRequest" has different behavior.

It's a bit late in the piece, but I encountered the same issue. I found that passing through the "administratorid" as well caused it to work.

In my example, I simply updated the administratorid with the same value as the original record.

I have not done additional troubleshooting, but this appears to either because updating another attribute triggered the update message OR that there is some validation going on when changing the BU, but this validation fails silently.

Auditing indicates that two separate update events happened as a result of the above, one for administrator and one for the BU.
