CRMQuote.Retrieve Method

The Retrieve method retrieves a quote by ID.

Syntax

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Function Retrieve(
  ByVal Caller As CUserAuth,
  ByVal QuoteId As String,
  ByVal ColumnSetXml As String
) As String
[C#]
public string Retrieve(
  CUserAuth  Caller,
  string  QuoteId,
  string  ColumnSetXml
);
[C++]
public: String* Retrieve(
  CUserAuth*  Caller,
  String*  QuoteId,
  String*  ColumnSetXml
);

Parameters

Caller

Specifies the identity of the caller. The caller must have the prvReadQuote privilege to perform this action. See CUserAuth.

QuoteId

Specifies the ID of the quote.

ColumnSetXml

Specifies an XML string describing the set of columns that is to be retrieved. Passing "" or null returns all columns. You can find the valid column names in quote.xsd. See also ColumnSetXML Schema.

Return Value

Returns a String type that specifies the XML data containing the requested quote information. The fields that are returned depend on what fields are specified in the ColumnSetXml parameter. The XML schema is described by quote.xsd.

Remarks

If there is an error, SOAP throws an exception and the error message is reported in System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException.Detail.OuterXml.

All IDs passed to the platform are GUIDs wrapped in braces. For example: {6522D89A-A752-4455-A2B0-51494C6957C3}

// strServerName should be set with the name of the platform Web server

// virtualDirectory should be set with the name of the Microsoft CRM
// virtual directory on the platform Web server
string virtualDirectory = "mscrmservices";
string strDir = "https://" + strServerName + "/" + virtualDirectory + "/";

Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.BizUser bizUser = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.BizUser ();
bizUser.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
bizUser.Url = strDir + "BizUser.srf";

   strColumnSetXml += "<column>accountid</column>";
   strColumnSetXml += "</columnset>";
