Remarks

Message Availability

This message works regardless whether the caller is connected to the server or offline. However, a few entities of this message class are exceptions to that availability. To determine which entities have a more restricted availability, see Supported Entities later in this topic.

Usage

Pass an instance of this class to the Execute method, which returns an instance of the RetrieveResponse class.

Privileges and Access Rights

To perform this action, the caller must have access rights on the specified records in the Target property. For a list of the required privileges, see Retrieve message privileges.

Notes for Callers

The returned record contains the values for the properties that are specified in the ColumnSet property for which the calling user has access rights. No other property values are returned. For more information about field security, see How field security can be used to control access to field values in Microsoft Dynamics 365.

Supported Entities

You can use this method to retrieve any records for entities (includes custom entities) that support the Retrieve message.

The following table shows the default entities that support this message. For the listed entities of this message, the Availability column shows Server if the caller must be connected to the server and shows Both if the caller can be either connected to, or disconnected from, the server.

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.


//Create the request
RetrieveRequest request = new RetrieveRequest();
request.ColumnSet = new ColumnSet(new string[] { "birthdate" });
request.Target = new EntityReference(EntityName.Contact, contactId);

//Retrieve the entity to determine what the birthdate is set at
Entity entity = (Entity)((RetrieveResponse)service.Execute(request)).Entity;

Thread Safety

Any public static ( Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
