InstantiateTemplateRequest Class

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.

// Use the InstantiateTemplate message to create an e-mail message using a template.
InstantiateTemplateRequest instTemplateReq = new InstantiateTemplateRequest
{
    TemplateId = _templateId,
    ObjectId = _accountId,
    ObjectType = Account.EntityLogicalName
};
InstantiateTemplateResponse instTemplateResp = (InstantiateTemplateResponse)_serviceProxy.Execute(instTemplateReq);

// Serialize the email message to XML, and save to a file.
XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(InstantiateTemplateResponse));
string filename = "email-message.xml";
using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(filename))
{
    serializer.Serialize(writer, instTemplateResp);
}
Console.WriteLine("Created e-mail using the template.");

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

Usage

Privileges and Access Rights

To perform this action, the caller must have privileges on the Email and Template entities and access rights on the specified record in the TemplateId and ObjectId properties. For a complete list of the required privileges, see InstantiateTemplate Privileges.
