Making synchronous API calls

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Mohd Tahir 676

Hi,

By default the API calls made in CRM dynamics are asynchronous in nature. But I am in a situation where I wish to make synchronous API calls. 

Any suggestion on the same would be highly appreciated.

    Don't forget to check the CRM Rest Builder in order to get the correct query you want :

    You can create basic queries to the webapi using XMLHTTP or JQuery in an async or sync way.

    All public SDK Calls in CRM SDK ( aside from Imports and Explicit async job types ) are synchronous.

    Which API message / action are you looking at?

    You mean webAPI? It's up to you how you call them, you specify this as last parameter in open() function of your XMLHttpRequest:

    var req = new XMLHttpRequest();

    req.open("POST", "url", true/false);

    if you are reffering to OrganizationService - you can't call it asynchronously, but you can always make your call in a separate thread, for example:

    private async Task MakeRequest()

    {

     // do some stuff

     var task = Task.Run(() => CallWebService(myInput));

     // do other stuff

     var myOutput = await task;

     // some more stuff

    }

    Yes ..You can convert to Synchronous call using Thread or Task.

    Call your API in a Task and wait for completion or Call your API in a Thread and join it .

    It will wait till completion of method execution.
