Examples

The following example shows how to use this message. For this sample to work correctly, you must be connected to the server to get an IOrganizationService interface. For the complete sample, see the link later in this topic.


Console.WriteLine("Enabling auditing on the organization and account entities.");

// Enable auditing on the organization.
// First, get the organization's ID from the system user record.
Guid orgId = ((WhoAmIResponse)_service.Execute(new WhoAmIRequest())).OrganizationId;

// Next, retrieve the organization's record.
Organization org = _service.Retrieve(Organization.EntityLogicalName, orgId,
    new ColumnSet(new string[] { "organizationid", "isauditenabled" })) as Organization;

// Finally, enable auditing on the organization.
bool organizationAuditingFlag = org.IsAuditEnabled.Value;
org.IsAuditEnabled = true;
_service.Update(org);

// Enable auditing on account entities.
bool accountAuditingFlag = EnableEntityAuditing(Account.EntityLogicalName, true);


Console.WriteLine("Enabling auditing on the organization and account entities.")

' Enable auditing on the organization.
' First, get the organization's ID from the system user record.
Dim orgId As Guid = (CType(_service.Execute(New WhoAmIRequest()), WhoAmIResponse)).OrganizationId

' Next, retrieve the organization's record.
Dim org As Organization = TryCast(_service.Retrieve(Organization.EntityLogicalName, orgId, New ColumnSet(New String() {"organizationid", "isauditenabled"})), Organization)

' Finally, enable auditing on the organization.
Dim organizationAuditingFlag As Boolean = org.IsAuditEnabled.Value
org.IsAuditEnabled = True
_service.Update(org)

' Enable auditing on account entities.
Dim accountAuditingFlag As Boolean = EnableEntityAuditing(Account.EntityLogicalName, True)
