CRMLead.RemoveAssociation Method

The RemoveAssociation method eliminates the association between a lead and an object (contact or an account).

Syntax

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Sub RemoveAssociation(
  ByVal Caller As CUserAuth,
  ByVal LeadId As String,
  ByVal Object As CObjectName
)
[C#]
public void RemoveAssociation(
  CUserAuth  Caller,
  string  LeadId,
  CObjectName  Object
);
[C++]
public: void RemoveAssociation(
  CUserAuth*  Caller,
  String*  LeadId,
  CObjectName*  Object
);

Parameters

Caller

Specifies the identity of the caller. The caller must have the prvAppendLead and either prvAppendToAccount or prvAppendToContact privileges to perform this action. See CUserAuth.

LeadId

Specifies the ID of the lead.

Object

Specifies the object (contact or account) that is to be disassociated from the lead. See CObjectName.

Return Value

No return value.

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}

Example

[C#]
// strServer should be set with the name of the platform Web server
string strServer = "myservername";

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

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

// CRMLead proxy object
Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CRMLead lead = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CRMLead ();
lead.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
lead.Url = strDir + "CRMLead.srf";

string strErrorMsg;
string strLeadId = "{0876468B-8FC4-4381-8D81-C0B4D05E9386}";
string strAccountId = "{3E24E79C-7EC5-4473-95FF-7E46FEBB534B}";
try
{
   Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CUserAuth userAuth = bizUser.WhoAmI();

   // Create an object name
   Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CObjectName objName = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CObjectName();
   objName.Id = strAccountId;
   objName.Type = Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.ObjectType.otAccount;

   // Remove the association with the account object
   lead.RemoveAssociation (userAuth, strLeadId, objName);
}
catch (System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException err)
{
   // Process the platform error here
