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.

The following RetrieveEntityKeyById and RetrieveEntityKeyByName static methods both use the following OutputEntityKeyInformation to show details of the table alternate key.

/// <summary>
/// Retrieves a table alternate key by ID
/// </summary>
/// <param name="service">Authenticated IOrganizationService instance</param>
static void RetrieveEntityKeyById(IOrganizationService service) {

    Guid keyID = new("4d9ca2c2-d875-ee11-8179-000d3a993550");

    RetrieveEntityKeyRequest request = new() { 
          MetadataId = keyID
    };

    var response = (RetrieveEntityKeyResponse)service.Execute(request);

    OutputEntityKeyInformation(response.EntityKeyMetadata);

}
/// <summary>
/// Retrieves a table alternate key by name
/// </summary>
/// <param name="service">Authenticated IOrganizationService instance</param>
static void RetrieveEntityKeyByName(IOrganizationService service)
{
    string logicalName = "sample_uniquename";
    string tableLogicalName = "sample_bankaccount";

    RetrieveEntityKeyRequest request = new()
    {
          LogicalName = logicalName,
          EntityLogicalName = tableLogicalName
    };

    var response = (RetrieveEntityKeyResponse)service.Execute(request);

    OutputEntityKeyInformation(response.EntityKeyMetadata);
}

//Outputs details about retrieved table alternate key.
static void OutputEntityKeyInformation(EntityKeyMetadata entityKeyMetadata)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"SchemaName:{entityKeyMetadata.SchemaName}");
    Console.WriteLine($"DisplayName:{entityKeyMetadata.DisplayName.UserLocalizedLabel.Label}");
    Console.WriteLine($"EntityLogicalName:{entityKeyMetadata.EntityLogicalName}");
    Console.WriteLine($"LogicalName:{entityKeyMetadata.LogicalName}");
    Console.WriteLine("KeyAttributes:");
    foreach (var columnName in entityKeyMetadata.KeyAttributes) {
        Console.WriteLine($"\t{columnName}");
    }
}

Output:

SchemaName:sample_UniqueName
DisplayName:Unique Name
EntityLogicalName:sample_bankaccount
LogicalName:sample_uniquename
KeyAttributes:
        sample_accountname

Remarks

This message takes the table name and key name as input values to retrieve the specified key for the table.

Usage
