CRMOpportunity.MakePublic Method

The MakePublic method makes an opportunity available to all users. Only the owner of an opportunity can make it public. By default, all objects are public. See Remarks.

Syntax

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

Parameters

Caller

Specifies the identity of the caller. The caller must be the owner and have the prvWriteOpportunity privilege to perform this action. See CUserAuth.

OpportunityId

Specifies the ID of the opportunity that is to be made public.

Return Value

No return value.

Remarks

Note   The Microsoft CRM application does not provide an interface for making an object private. However, if an object is made private by using a third-party solution, the application recognizes this setting.

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";

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

string strErrorMsg;
string strOpportunityId= "{3BDFF384-0E6B-42F8-924E-61A40514E6F6}";
try
{
   Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.CUserAuth userAuth = bizUser.WhoAmI();

   // Make the opportunity public
   opportunity.MakePublic(userAuth, strOpportunityId);
}
catch (System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException err)
{
   // Process the platform error here
   strErrorMsg = ("ErrorMessage: " + err.Message + " " + err.Detail.OuterXml + " Source: " + err.Source );
}
catch (Exception err)
{
   // Process other errors here
   strErrorMsg = ("ErrorMessage: " + err.Message );
}
