Examples

The following example shows how to use this message. For this sample to work correctly, you must be connected to the server to get an IOrganizationService interface instance.

This sample shows how to change the order of options in a local option set. The following sample retrieves a PicklistAttributeMetadata column and orders the options by label rather than by value.

/// <summary>
/// Demonstrates OrderOptions message
/// </summary>
/// <param name="service">Authenticated IOrganizationService instance</param>
static void OrderOptionsExample(IOrganizationService service) {

      string tableLogicalName = "account";
      string columnLogicalName = "customertypecode";
      string solutionUniqueName = "SolutionName";
      var columnDefinition = GetLocalChoiceColumn(tableLogicalName, columnLogicalName);

      // Output original order by value
      Console.WriteLine("Original order:");
      OutputOptions(columnDefinition.OptionSet);

      // Order the options by the Label value
      var orderedOptions = columnDefinition.OptionSet.Options
         .OrderBy(x => x.Label.UserLocalizedLabel.Label);

      List<int> newOrder = new();

      foreach (OptionMetadata option in orderedOptions)
      {
         newOrder.Add((int)option.Value);
      }

      // Prepare the request
      OrderOptionRequest request = new() {
         EntityLogicalName = tableLogicalName, // For local choice only
         AttributeLogicalName = columnLogicalName, // For local choice only
         SolutionUniqueName = solutionUniqueName,
         Values = newOrder.ToArray(),
         //OptionSetName = "globalChoiceName" //For global choice only
      };

      // Send the request
      service.Execute(request);

      // Retrieve the column definition again
      columnDefinition = GetLocalChoiceColumn(tableLogicalName, columnLogicalName);

      // Now ordered by Label
      Console.WriteLine("New order:");
      OutputOptions(columnDefinition.OptionSet);


      // Writes the order of the options
      void OutputOptions(OptionSetMetadata options) {
         foreach (OptionMetadata option in options.Options)
         {
            Console.WriteLine($"\t Value:{option.Value} Label:{option.Label.UserLocalizedLabel.Label}");
         }            
      }

      // Retrieves a local Choice column
      PicklistAttributeMetadata GetLocalChoiceColumn(string tableLogicalName, string columnLogicalName) {

         RetrieveAttributeRequest retrieveAttributeRequest = new()
         {
            EntityLogicalName = tableLogicalName,
            LogicalName = columnLogicalName
         };

         var retrieveAttributeResponse = (RetrieveAttributeResponse)service.Execute(retrieveAttributeRequest);

         return (PicklistAttributeMetadata)retrieveAttributeResponse.AttributeMetadata;
      }
}

Output:

Original order:
   Value:1 Label:Competitor
   Value:2 Label:Consultant
   Value:3 Label:Customer
   Value:4 Label:Investor
   Value:5 Label:Partner
   Value:6 Label:Influencer
   Value:7 Label:Press
   Value:8 Label:Prospect
   Value:9 Label:Reseller
   Value:10 Label:Supplier
   Value:11 Label:Vendor
   Value:12 Label:Other
New order:
   Value:1 Label:Competitor
   Value:2 Label:Consultant
   Value:3 Label:Customer
   Value:6 Label:Influencer
   Value:4 Label:Investor
   Value:12 Label:Other
   Value:5 Label:Partner
   Value:7 Label:Press
   Value:8 Label:Prospect
   Value:9 Label:Reseller
   Value:10 Label:Supplier
   Value:11 Label:Vendor
