Sample: Remove a role for a user

 

Applies To: Dynamics 365 (online), Dynamics 365 (on-premises), Dynamics CRM 2016, Dynamics CRM Online

This sample code is for Microsoft Dynamics 365 (online & on-premises). Download the Microsoft Dynamics CRM SDK package. It can be found in the following location in the download package:

SampleCode\CS\BusinessDataModel\UsersAndRoles\RemoveRoleFromUser.cs

Requirements

For more information about the requirements for running the sample code provided in this SDK, see Use the sample and helper code.

Demonstrates

This sample shows how to disassociate a role from a user by using the IOrganizationService.Disassociate method. A snippet showing just the key sections of the sample is shown first, followed by the Complete Sample Code. Note that this sample can only be run in an on-premises environment because it creates a user. However, the section of the sample that demonstrates disassociating a role from a user will work for all environments.

Example


// Connect to the Organization service. 
// The using statement assures that the service proxy is properly disposed.
using (_serviceProxy = new OrganizationServiceProxy(serverConfig.OrganizationUri, serverConfig.HomeRealmUri,serverConfig.Credentials, serverConfig.DeviceCredentials))
{
    _serviceProxy.EnableProxyTypes();

    CreateRequiredRecords();

    // Retrieve a user.
    SystemUser user = _serviceProxy.Retrieve(SystemUser.EntityLogicalName,
        _userId, new ColumnSet(new String[] { "systemuserid", "firstname", "lastname" })).ToEntity<SystemUser>();

    if (user != null)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("{1} {0} user account is retrieved.", user.FirstName, user.LastName);
        // Find the role.
        QueryExpression query = new QueryExpression
        {
            EntityName = "role",
            ColumnSet = new ColumnSet("roleid"),
            Criteria = new FilterExpression
            {
                Conditions =
                {

                    new ConditionExpression
                    {
                        AttributeName = "name",
                        Operator = ConditionOperator.Equal,
                        Values = {_givenRole}
                    }
                }
            }
        };

        // Get the role.
        EntityCollection roles = _serviceProxy.RetrieveMultiple(query);

        // Disassociate the role.
        if (roles.Entities.Count > 0)
        {
            Role salesRole = _serviceProxy.RetrieveMultiple(query).Entities[0].ToEntity<Role>();

            Console.WriteLine("Role {0} is retrieved.", _givenRole);

            _serviceProxy.Disassociate(
                        "systemuser",
                        user.Id,
                        new Relationship("systemuserroles_association"),
                        new EntityReferenceCollection() { new EntityReference("role", salesRole.Id) });
            Console.WriteLine("Role {0} is disassociated from user {1} {2}.", _givenRole, user.FirstName, user.LastName);
        }
    }

}
