Sample: Retrieve valid status transitions

  • Artikkeli

This sample shows how to retrieve valid state transitions regardless of whether custom state transitions have been defined for the entity. You can download the sample from here.

Note

This sample applies to both Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises) and Dataverse.

How to run this sample

To obtain a local copy of all samples and build them, follow these steps:

  1. Download or clone the Samples repo so that you have a local copy.
  2. (Optional) Edit the dataverse/App.config file to define a connection string specifying the instance/organization you want to connect to.
  3. Open the sample solution in Visual Studio and press F5 to run the sample. After you specify a connection string in dataverse/App.config, any sample you run will use that connection information.

If you don't specify a connection string in dataverse/App.config file, a dialog opens each time you run the sample, and you'll need to enter information about which instance or org you want to connect to and which credentials you want to use. This dialog caches previous connections so that you can choose a previously used connection.

What this sample does

The GetValidStatusOptions method is intended to be used in a scenario where it contains data that returns valid status option transitions regardless of whether state transitions are enabled for the entity.

How this sample works

In order to simulate the scenario described in What this sample does, the sample will do the following:

Setup

  1. Checks for the current version of the org.
  2. The MetadataFilterExpression method checks for the entity metadata.

Demonstrates

This sample shows how to retrieve valid state transitions regardless of whether custom state transitions have been defined for the entity.

The sample does the following tasks:

  1. Retrieves status options for the Incident entity

  2. Uses a GetValidStatusOptions method in the sample to get valid status transitions for each status option

  3. Displays the valid transition options in the console

    When status reason transitions for the incident entity are configured in the following way:

    Example of status reason transitions for case.

    The valid state transitions are filtered and you will see the following representing all the valid transitions for each status option.
