I am about to migrate a Dynamics CRM 2011 On Premise instance to Dynamics CRM 2015 Online.
I'm using the current Dynamics CRM SDK (current Version 7.1) and have managed to migrate the custom attributes, except the Virtual
and Lookup
ones, which can't be created via CreateAttributeRequest
.
Now next, I need to migrate all the relationships. So far I've been able to get the necessary OneToManyRelationshipMetadata
and ManyToManyRelationshipMetadata
. However, for OneToManyRelationshipMetadata
I need to pass a LookupAttributeMetadata
to the CreateAttributeRequest
.
OneToManyRelationshipRequest request = new OneToManyRelationshipRequest()
{
Lookup = new LookupAttributeMetadata()
{
SchemaName = "new_topicid",
DisplayName = new Label("Subject", 1033),
Description = new Label("Subject Description", 1033)
},
OneToManyRelationship = new OneToManyRelationshipMetadata()
{
ReferencedEntity = "subject",
ReferencedAttribute = "subjectid",
ReferencingEntity = "customer",
ReferencingAttribute = "new_topicid"
}
}
However, I get the exception that attribute new_topicid
doesn't exist. That may make sense, since I had to skip it during Attribute creation earlier (since it can't be created through CreateAttributeRequest
).
Is there any other way how I can migrate the LookupAttributeMetadata
or OneToManyRelationshipMetadata
/ManyToManyRelationshipMetadata
to Dynamics CRM online?
