    CorelationID- Gets the GUID for tracking plug-in or custom workflow activity execution.

    Depth- Gets the current depth of execution in the call stack. Which means it tells you whether the plugin was triggered as a result of an action performed for the first time or it was triggered by another plugin's operation.

    Check msdn.microsoft.com/.../microsoft.xrm.sdk.ipluginexecutioncontext.aspx

    Hi,

    Follow this thread for better idea of Correlation Id

    https://community.dynamics.com/crm/f/117/t/245213

    And coming to Depth - It is using for Executing your plugin. For example you gave depth as 1 then in Update operation, our plugin Execute only once. Generally we use Depth for preventing infinite loop errors. Limit of Depth is 8.
