Sample: Create and retrieve entity relationships
Applies To: Dynamics CRM 2013
This sample code is for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 and Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online. Download the Microsoft Dynamics CRM SDK package. It can be found in the following location in the download package:
SampleCode\CS\Metadata\Relationships\WorkWithRelationships.cs
SampleCode\VB\Metadata\Relationships\WorkWithRelationships.vb
Requirements
For more information about the requirements for running the sample code provided in this SDK, see Use the sample and helper code.
Demonstrates
This sample shows how to how verify that entities are eligible to participate in an entity relationship and then creates a 1:N and N:N entity relationship.
