Read Optionset value in Plugin CRM 2011

September 14, 2011 Rajeev Pentyala Leave a comment Go to comments

Hi,

Below is the sample code to read Picklist value (i.e., OptionSet Value) in CRM 2011

if (context.InputParameters.Contains(“Target”) && context.InputParameters[“Target”] isEntity)

{

currEntity = (Entity)context.InputParameters[“Target”];

}

int statusValue = -1;

string statusText=string.empty;

if (currEntity .Attributes.Contains(“statecode”))

{

OptionSetValue optionState = currEntity .Attributes[“statecode”] as OptionSetValue;

statusValue = optionTimesheetState.Value;

statusText = optionTimesheetState.Text;

}

Hope it helps 🙂

Here is a very good solution to retrieve optionSet Text when you have the value and vice versa : https://community.dynamics.com/crm/b/mshelp/archive/2012/06/12/get-optionset-text-from-value-or-value-from-text.aspx

Hi,

There are two way to get text of OptionSet:-
First:-

OptionSetValue opProductType = new OptionSetValue();

opProductType = (OptionSetValue)item.Attributes[attributeName];

var optionValue = opProductType.Value;

Second:-

var StatusString = TermAndCon.FormattedValues[attributeName].ToString();

Post OptionSet Value : –

newSalesOrder[attributeName] = new OptionSetValue(Convert.ToInt32(optionValue));
