Remarks

Message Availability

This message works regardless whether the caller is connected to the server or offline.

Usage

Pass an instance of this class to the Execute method, which returns an instance of the ValidateResponse class.

Privileges and Access Rights

To perform this action, the caller must have access rights on the specified entities in the Activities property. For a list of the required privileges for this message, see Validate message privileges.

For the Web API use the RenewContract Action.

Each activity record in the Activities property must have a valid Guid value for Id.

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. For the complete sample, see the link later in this topic.



// Retrieve the appointment to be validated
ColumnSet cols = new ColumnSet("scheduledstart", "scheduledend", "statecode", "statuscode");
Appointment retrievedAppointment = (Appointment)_serviceProxy.Retrieve(Appointment.EntityLogicalName,
                                           _appointmentId, cols);

// Use the Validate message
ValidateRequest validatedReq = new ValidateRequest();
validatedReq.Activities = new EntityCollection();
validatedReq.Activities.Entities.Add(retrievedAppointment);
validatedReq.Activities.MoreRecords = false;
validatedReq.Activities.PagingCookie = "";
validatedReq.Activities.EntityName = Appointment.EntityLogicalName;

ValidateResponse validateResp = (ValidateResponse)_serviceProxy.Execute(validatedReq);

// Verify success
if ((validateResp.Result != null) &amp;&amp; (validateResp.Result.Length > 0))
{
    Console.WriteLine("Validated the appointment.");                        
}



' Retrieve the appointment to be validated
Dim cols As New ColumnSet("scheduledstart", "scheduledend", "statecode", "statuscode")
Dim retrievedAppointment As Appointment = _
    CType(_serviceProxy.Retrieve(Appointment.EntityLogicalName, _appointmentId, cols), Appointment)

' Use the Validate message
Dim validatedReq As New ValidateRequest()
validatedReq.Activities = New EntityCollection()
validatedReq.Activities.Entities.Add(retrievedAppointment)
validatedReq.Activities.MoreRecords = False
validatedReq.Activities.PagingCookie = ""
validatedReq.Activities.EntityName = Appointment.EntityLogicalName

Dim validateResp As ValidateResponse = CType(_serviceProxy.Execute(validatedReq), ValidateResponse)

' Verify success
If (validateResp.Result IsNot Nothing) AndAlso (validateResp.Result.Length > 0) Then
    Console.WriteLine("Validated the appointment.")
End If
