I can't find any information about this. I've got a CRM callout that fires from a form, and I need append to one of the fields; for example, the field might have something like "BH" in it, and I need the callout to do some calculations and alter the field so that it reads "BH002129" or whatever, but no matter how I try it, it ends up just overwriting the field entirely (so in that case, it will just say "002129"). I can't seem to get it to append, and I also can't figure out how to read the value of that attribute so I can just tack it on to the string that the callout puts there. There has to be a way to do this, right? But how?

Edit: Code snippet:


public override PreCalloutReturnValue PreCreate(CalloutUserContext userContext, CalloutEntityContext entityContext, ref string entityXml, ref string errorMessage)
  {
  // Variables
   string prefix = "no_init";

   XmlDocument entityDoc = new XmlDocument();
   entityDoc.LoadXml(entityXml);

   XmlNodeList propertyList = entityDoc.GetElementsByTagName("Property");
   XmlElement competitorNumberValue = null;
   XmlElement properties = (XmlElement) entityDoc.GetElementsByTagName("Properties")[0];
   XmlElement competitorNumberElement = entityDoc.CreateElement("Property");

   // Find prefix -- this is the part I don't know how to do
   prefix = Convert.ToString(?????);

           /*
               Other stuff gets calculated here, which works fine. New value gets written to the attribute here as well.
           */

   return PreCalloutReturnValue.Continue;   
  }

Another edit: I just tried this idea, which I found online and which actually causes a CRM server error on save:



            string nameSpaceValue = entityDoc.ChildNodes[0].Attributes["xmlns"].Value;
            XmlNamespaceManager xsn = new XmlNamespaceManager(entityDoc.NameTable);
            xsn.AddNamespace("z", nameSpaceValue);   
            string entityXpath = "//z:new_name";
            XmlNode new_nameNode = entityDoc.SelectSingleNode(entityXpath, xsn);

            // Find prefix
            prefix = ((XmlElement)new_nameNode).GetAttribute("new_name").ToString();
A: 

I think that you should wrap this inside a Dynamic entity so that you can acces directly each properties.

Take a look at 2d00-_5b00_generic-callout-implementation_5d00_.aspx">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sureshm/archive/2007/05/07/dynamic-crm-3.0-callouts-2d00-_5b00_generic-callout-implementation_5d00_.aspx
