Example

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.

// Grant the team read/write access to the lead.
var teamReference = new EntityReference(Team.EntityLogicalName, _teamId);
var grantAccessRequest = new GrantAccessRequest
{
    PrincipalAccess = new PrincipalAccess
    {
        AccessMask = AccessRights.ReadAccess | AccessRights.WriteAccess,
        Principal = teamReference
    },
    Target = leadReference
};

Console.WriteLine("Granting {0} to {1} ({2}) on the lead...\r\n",
    AccessRights.ReadAccess | AccessRights.WriteAccess, GetEntityReferenceString(teamReference), "Team");
_serviceProxy.Execute(grantAccessRequest);

var systemUser2Ref = new EntityReference(SystemUser.EntityLogicalName,
    _systemUserIds[1]);

' Grant the team read/write access to the lead.
Dim teamReference = New EntityReference(Team.EntityLogicalName,
                                        _teamId)

Dim grantAccessRequest1 = New GrantAccessRequest With
                         {
                             .PrincipalAccess =
                             New PrincipalAccess With
                             {
                                 .AccessMask = AccessRights.ReadAccess Or AccessRights.WriteAccess,
                                 .Principal = teamReference
                             },
                             .Target = leadReference
                         }

Console.WriteLine("Granting {0} to {1} ({2}) on the lead..." & vbCrLf,
                  AccessRights.ReadAccess Or AccessRights.WriteAccess, GetEntityReferenceString(teamReference),
                  "Team")
_serviceProxy.Execute(grantAccessRequest1)

Remarks

Message Availability

For this message to work, the caller must be connected to the server.

Usage

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

Privileges and Access Rights

To perform this action, the caller must have privileges on the specified entity in the Target property and access rights on the specified record in the Target property. For a list of the required privileges, see GrantAccess Privileges.

Notes for Callers

This action applies to all child records of the target record. For all child records, if the caller does not have share privileges for those entity types, or share rights to the records, the child records are not shared. As a result, the owner of the instance, or a user who shares the instance with share rights, automatically has share rights to all child records of the target record. In this case, only the lack of privileges for a particular entity type prevents the child records from being shared.

For a description of how actions on a parent instance affect child records, see Cascading Behavior.

Supported Entities

The following table shows the default entities that support this message. For the listed entities, the caller must be connected to the server for this message to be available.
