If I already got the "serviceappointment" object from Crmservice , it is possible to convert it to Metadata and retrieve it fields ? ( I means all the text fields ).

I think that I can rephrase my question as :
1 ) How do I retrieve metadata from a {GUID}
2) And how I can collect all its fields.
Thank alot.

Hello CWild,
don't know, if I get you right.
In CRM metadata is static information on the "class" or construction rules for CRM objects. To access it, you would want to read the the EntityShemaName ( serviceappointment ) or objecttypecode from your serviceappointment ( since this is a system entity, the code will be predictable: 4214 ) and move on from there.
On your system you should take a look at
-
the Metadata Browser that resides on
http://<yourcrmserver>:<port>/sdk/list.aspx -
The SDK
-
it contains a complete Metadata Walkthrough under <installdir>\sdk\walkthroughs\metadata
-
and a documentation part you can find by searching "Using the MetadataService Web Service" in the .chm documentation
-
-
finally and for trying things out: the Metadata Service
http://192.168.17.98:5555/mscrmservices/2007/metadataservice.asmx ( or ?WSDL )
Kind regards,
Markus

Since I have serviceappointment from the <crmService >
serviceappointment sa = (
serviceappointment ) crmService.Retrieve("serviceappointment", contactGuid, new AllColumns());How could I retrieve its metadata into a some king of an Array with its all of his fields & Custom fields.
Is there a simple code to do it ?
Thank alot.

Hello CWild,
the MetadataService will only return field names, limits and information about relations to other entities and so on.
From what you are writing, I understand, that you are seeking to get the information contained in the object, not setup information about the entity.
Can you clarifiy that ?
In case you still need the Meta(!)Data, here's code from the SDK.
Code Snippet// Retrieve the metadata for the specified entity.
RetrieveEntityRequest entityRequest =
new RetrieveEntityRequest();entityRequest.LogicalName = "serviceappointment";
// Set the amount of data to retrieve. // For better performance, do not retrieve All unless you really need it.entityRequest.EntityItems = EntityItems.All;
RetrieveEntityResponse entityResponse = (RetrieveEntityResponse)service.Execute(entityRequest);
Kind regards,
Markus

Could I retrieve all the entity fields and its custom fields, by running some kind of a LOOP inside the metadata
if I've got only the { GUID } of the entity ?.
And can you please in-light me a little bit more about the "RetrieveEntityRequest".

Hello CWild,
yes. Of course you can loop through metadata.
Generally: I would propose that you open a new thread ( this one is marked as solved ) and rephrase your question there.
And please: Provide any details you can provide. It's not very useful if I have to keep on guessing, what your question is aiming at. Especially: Please try to distinct between "Data" vs. "Metadata" and "Entity" vs. "Instance/Object".
Thank's for your understanding,
kind regards,
Markus
