Fetch XML query

Posted on by G.Vetere 8

I'm creating a console app in C# that runs every night - it fires a query and then starts a workflow against the returned records

One of my conditions is that the Effective-To date field is equal or less than today's date 

I can't find a way of putting Today's date as a variable, so every time it runs it uses that days date as today

So the below is what im trying to achieve

<condition attribute="effectiveto" operator="on-or-before" value="TODAY" />

    Hello,

    I'm afraid you will have to pass value as DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-mm-dd"). Can you provide bigger piece of code?

    This is my query:

    string getQuotes = @"

               <fetch mapping = 'logical' distinct = 'false'>

                   <entity name = 'quote'>

                       <attribute name = 'name'/>

                       <attribute name = 'statecode'/>

                       <attribute name = 'quoteid'/>

                       <filter type = 'and'>

                           <condition attribute = 'statecode' operator= 'eq' value = '1'/>

                           <condition attribute = 'statuscode' operator= 'not-in'>

                               <value>200000014</value>

                               <value>5</value>

                               <value>200000013</value>

                           </condition>

                           <condition attribute='effectiveto' operator='on-or-before' value='TODAY'/>

                       </filter>

                   </entity>

               </fetch>";

    Ok, I sorted it, thanks

    I added the variable:

    String todaysDate = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd");

    Then called it within the query:

    <condition attribute='effectiveto' operator='on-or-before' value='" + todaysDate + @"'/>

    Use something like following:

    string getQuotes = $@"
<fetch mapping = 'logical' distinct = 'false'>
<entity name = 'quote'>
<attribute name = 'name'/>
<attribute name = 'statecode'/>
<attribute name = 'quoteid'/>
<filter type = 'and'>
<condition attribute = 'statecode' operator= 'eq' value = '1'/>
<condition attribute = 'statuscode' operator= 'not-in'>
<value>200000014</value>
<value>5</value>
<value>200000013</value>
</condition>
<condition attribute='effectiveto' operator='on-or-before' value='{DateTime.Today:yyyy-MM-dd}'/>
</filter>
</entity>
</fetch>";
