MS Flow - How to call SDK method or a WebAPI action in a flow?

[arjunmusuvathy]

Hi

I have a SDK method/WebAPI action which I would like to call from inside a MS flow.

The SDK method and WebAPI action is mentioned in the link below "

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.crm.sdk.messages.deleterecordchangehistoryrequ...

SDK method: DeleteRecordChangeHistoryRequest

Web API equivalent: DeleteRecordChangeHistory

Could you advise how I can implement this in the MS flow please?

Thanks

Hi Vikram,

In CDS(Current) environment you can use Perform a unbound action and use DeleteRecordChangeHistory action 

Where target is entityreference of record for which you are trying to remove audit history record.

Thanks

@ManishJain  Thanks for the reply.

I have added this action and it gave me an error. Screenshots below.

Flow :

Only option I get is the 'Contact' - unique identifier in the dynamic content. This is a GUID. How do I convert this into entity reference?

Error:

Any advise would be helpful.

Thanks

I tried deleting audit history for a custom entity and it gives me an error.

Custom entity display name: university

Custom entity plural name: universities

Custom entity schema name: new_university

Can you advise me what should the Target look like please?

Thanks

Hi Vikram,

Please use Target as : new_universities(guid). 

Do remember it will delete audit history for that record and not for a particular audit row for that record. 

Thanks

Hi Manish

Can I know what should Target be in general is it, schemaname plural (guid)?

As I have error with another custom entity below,

display name: language

plural name: languages

schema name: new_languages

can I know what should target be for this please?

I have tried below:

new_languages(guid)

new_languagess(guid)

Thanks

Hi Vikram,

I always go to to CRM Rest builder and build my query there. Another way is to use XrmToolBox FetchXML toolbox and fetch your entity data. It gives you option to view web api parameters so there also you can find your entity name which you have to use. Please let me know if this helps you resolving your issue.

Thanks
