Exploration: Create Swagger API and Consume It In Canvas-Apps

temmyraharjo's avatarTemmy Wahyu Raharjo

Today we will learn how to create Swagger API > deploy it to Azure (App Service) > make custom connector > use it in Canvas Apps. Without further ado, let’s make it!

Create API

First, we need to open your CMD line, then set the CMD (using CD command) to the directory where you want to create the folder. Once you are already in the folder that you want it, run the below command (you need to have dotnet installed):

dotnet new webapi -o BlogApi

By default, the CLI will help you to generate WeatherController. I will remove all the things that are related to the WeatherController and make the below Controller:

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc; namespace BlogApi.Controllers; public class Todo { public Guid Id { get; init; } = Guid.NewGuid(); public string? Name { get; set; } public string? Description { get; set; } public bool IsCompleted { get…

Granting Access to a Business unit Team via C#

Hi Folks,

I hope there isn’t any one who doesn’t know about security roles and access privileges being in Dynamics space. Most of the people should be aware of doing this via application, in this post, sharing one simple way to grant access to the records using C# code. Please use the below code to achieve the same.

private void ShareRecordtoBUTeamofRequestorUser(Guid Targetid, Guid TargetShare, IOrganizationService orgService)
        {
            try
            {
                if (Targetid != null && TargetShare != null)
                {
                    GrantAccessRequest grant = new GrantAccessRequest();
                    grant.Target = new EntityReference(MetadataHelper.VolunteerList.EntityLogicalName, Targetid);

                    PrincipalAccess principal = new PrincipalAccess();
                    principal.Principal = new EntityReference(MetadataHelper.Team.EntityLogicalName, TargetShare);
                    principal.AccessMask = AccessRights.ReadAccess;
                    grant.PrincipalAccess = principal;

                    try
                    {
                        //GrantAccessResponse grant_response = (GrantAccessResponse)orgService.Execute(grant);
                        orgService.Execute(grant);
                    }
                    catch (Exception ex)
                    {
                        throw ex;
                    }
                }
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                throw ex;
            }
        }

I have commented below lines in try block above and avoid using them because you will get an error for the same…

GrantAccessResponse grant_response = (GrantAccessResponse)orgService.Execute(grant);

An unhandled exception has occurred during execution of the plugin.
An error occured while getting default Team of Requestor BusinessUnit[A]Microsoft.Crm.Sdk.Messages.GrantAccessResponse cannot be cast to

Type A originates from ‘Microsoft.Crm.Sdk.Proxy, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35’ in the context ‘Default’ at location ‘C:\Microsoft.Crm.Sdk.Proxy.dll’. Type B originates from ‘Hisol.SCS.CRM.Plugins, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=bb2727b96c9cb15e’ in the context ‘LoadNeither’ in a byte array.

Thank you.
