Finding the CRM language Id (LCID) from within a C# Custom Workflow Activity

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by quite_dynamic 855

Hi all,

We have C# custom workflow activities (implementing the CodeActivity base class) in which we need to retrieve the originating user's language Id (LCID). I haven't been able to find it in the IWorkflowContext that you get from the execution context. 

Any idea on how I could retrieve this language Id from a custom C# workflow activity?

Many thanks

    You can retrieve user language using below Fetchxml Query , If user did not setup language  then organization base language becomes user language.Below fetchxml will retrrieve user language as well org language. If user language does not exists you can consider organization language as user language.Replace user Guid with current User Id

    <fetch count="1" >

     <entity name="usersettings" >

       <attribute name="localeid" alias="language" />  

       <filter type="and" >

         <condition attribute="systemuserid" operator="eq" value="4373eaeb-2ad0-4031-98af-2fa2308a6d8f" />

       </filter>

       <link-entity name="systemuser" from="systemuserid" to="systemuserid" link-type="inner" >

         <attribute name="fullname" />

         <link-entity name="organization" from="organizationid" to="organizationid" >

           <attribute name="localeid" />

         </link-entity>

       </link-entity>

     </entity>

    </fetch>
