Is there a way I can write a derived query in for a CRM Plugin?
Newbie on CRM dev here.
Query looks like this:
SELECT * FROM table1
WHERE table1.ID1 = XXXX AND table1.ID2 NOT IN (
SELECT table2.ID1
FROM table2
WHERE table2.ID2 = XXXX)
Writing the code using a queryexpression.
Unfortunately these kind of complex sql queries cannot be achieved via fetchxml or queryexpression queries. Especially like Subqueries, Not In scenarios.
Probably you need multiple resultset (EntityCollection), one for table1 & another one for table2, then transversing through it.
Another choice is LINQ queries, you can try.
On a side note, you can vote this idea to improve the querying ability.
If you truly are using CRM 2011, last time I checked, this is not possible, newer versions (2013+) you can perform this type of query.
Please see this article: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn481591.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
var qe = new QueryExpression("table1");
var link = qe.AddLink("table2", "id2", "id1", JoinOperator.LeftOuter);
link.LinkCriteria.AddCondition("id2", ConditionOperator.Equal "XXXX")
link.EntityAlias = "notIn";
qe.Criteria = new FilterExpression();
qe.Criteria.AddCondition("id1", ConditionOperator.Equal, "XXXX");
qe.Criteria.AddCondition("notIn", "id1", ConditionOperator.Null);
You can use this expression with LINQ for CRM:
OrganizationServiceContext oservice = new OrganizationServiceContext(service);
using (oservice)
{
var query = (from table1 in oservice.CreateQuery("new_table1")
join table2 in oservice.CreateQuery("new_table2") on table1["new_table1id"]
equals table2["new_table2id"]
where
table1.GetAttributeValue<EntityReference>("new_id1")
== new Guid("the equal guid or field")
where
table2.GetAttributeValue<EntityReference>("new_id2").Id
!= table1.GetAttributeValue<EntityReference>("new_id1").Id
&& table2.GetAttributeValue<EntityReference>("new_id2").Id
== new Guid("the not equal guid or field")
select table1).ToList();
}
This is another way to QueryExpression. oservice.CreateQuery("new_table1") is the name of your entity in CRM
This works on CRM 2011 too.

Select *,
(Select DefaultStartDay from Scheduler.ProgramSettings ps where ps.DefaultStartDay = s.Id ) [DefaultStartDay]
from Scheduler.Schedules s
where ScheduleType = 2;
I want to write above SQL query in EF Core, Specially I need subquery in select list to get data from another table with specific condition.
please refer image.Sample Data with SQL Query
I have tried below EF Core but getting wrong result.
var model = _context.Schedules
.Where(s => s.ScheduleType == 2)
.Select(rv => new ProgramSetting
{
Id = rv.Id,
ProgramTemplateId = rv.ProgramTemplateId,
IsActive = rv.IsActive,
DefaultStartDay = rv.Id
}).ToArray();
The SQL query is wrong and this is a misuse of EF Core.
First, that SQL will fail if there's more than 1 result from the subquery. Even in SQL you'd need a different query. An INNER JOIN would return the same results without failing if there are multiple matches.
Select s.*,ps.DefaultStartDay
from Scheduler.Schedules s
inner join Scheduler.ProgramSettings ps on ps.DefaultStartDay = s.Id
where ScheduleType = 2;
Second, using LINQ to emulate SQL is a misuse of both EF Core and LINQ. EF isn't a replacement for SQL, it's an ORM. Its job is to give the impression of working with in-memory objects instead of tables, not allow you to write SQL queries in C#
It's the ORM's job to generate JOINs as needed from the relations between entities (not tables). In this case, if Schedule has a ProgramSettins property, EF would generate the necessary joins automatically. Loading an entire schedule object could be as simple as :
var schedules=_context.Schedules
.Incule(sch=>sch.ProgramSettings)
.Where(s => s.ScheduleType == 2)
.ToArray();
Include is used to eagerly load the settings, not to force a JOIN.
If a Select clause is used that requires a property from ProgramSettings, the JOIN will be generated automatically, eg :
var namesAndDays=_context.Schedules
.Where(s => s.ScheduleType == 2)
.Select(s=>new {
Name = s.Name,
StartDay = s.ProgramSettings.DefaultStartDay
})
.ToArray();
I'm trying to do the following query in linq, however I'm getting an exception error, though my query looks fine to me. So here is the story:
Diagram
I have a many to many relationship between the users and the organizations. A user can be a part of many organizations, and an organization can have many users.
What Im trying to query
So given a user id, i want to query all the team members (users) i have in all the organizations i belong to. So
Input: User X id (guid), and this user belongs to Organization A, and Organization B
Output:
User A, Organization A
User B, Organization A
User C, Organization B
The Actual Query
I though this would do just that
var user = db.Users.Include(q => q.UserOrganization).SingleOrDefault( q => q.Id == id.ToString());
var members = (from us in db.Users.Include(q => q.UserOrganization)
let orgs = user.UserOrganization.Select(z => z.OrganizationId)
where us.UserOrganization.Any(q => orgs.Contains(q.OrganizationId) )
select new UserResource{
id = Guid.Parse(us.Id),
email = us.Email
}
).ToArray();
My query fails on the where clause, with the error:
Processing of the LINQ expression 'AsQueryable<long>((Unhandled parameter: __Select_0))' by 'NavigationExpandingExpressionVisitor' failed. This may indicate either a bug or a limitation in EF Core
Not sure what to change in the query. Please help.
PS: I wrote the query initially in MySql as follows:
SELECT UU.`Id`, UU.`Email`, UUO.`OrganizationId`
FROM aspnetusers AS UU
LEFT JOIN userorganization AS UUO ON UUO.`UserId` = `UU`.Id
WHERE UUO.`OrganizationId` IN
(
SELECT UO.`OrganizationId` FROM aspnetusers AS U
LEFT JOIN userorganization AS UO ON UO.UserId = U.Id
WHERE u.Id = '6caa67e7-69f3-49a3-ad61-10b07d379f10'
)
AND UU.Id != '6caa67e7-69f3-49a3-ad61-10b07d379f10'
The "SingleOrDefault" always executes the Query. User is not an IQueryable.
So the let orgs = user.UserOrganization.Select(z => z.OrganizationId) cannot be translated to SQL, do your var orgs = user.UserOrganization.Select(z => z.OrganizationId) before the Query, in Plain C#. This cannot be used in SQL-Queries.
With orgs being an IList<int> it will work.
But it should be prefered to find a solution that can be solved with one query only. Here you have two.
The SingleOrDefault might be not useful, you go better without, than you have a simple IQueryable. And The "Any" can most often be realized with a simple (Inner) Join, returning only values, if you have a match between to tables. That is the Same as Where - Any - Contains
I've ported some of my Entity from JPA to document and now porting some of my queries.
here is the JPA query:
em.createQuery("select distinct c from CustomerImpl c left join fetch c.addresses ca where (:name is null or c.firstName LIKE :name or c.lastName LIKE :name) and (:ref is null or c.externalReference LIKE :ref) and (:city is null or ca.city LIKE :city) order by c.firstName").setParameter("name", name).setParameter("ref", customerRef).setParameter("city", city).getResultList();
below is my attempt :
Criteria orNameCriteria = new Criteria().orOperator(Criteria.where("firstName").is(null), Criteria.where("firstName").is(name), Criteria.where("lastName").is(name));
Criteria orCustomerRefCriteria = new Criteria().orOperator(Criteria.where("externalReference").is(null), Criteria.where("externalReference").regex(customerRef,"i"));
Criteria orAddress = new Criteria().orOperator(Criteria.where("addresses.city").is(null), Criteria.where("addresses.city").regex(city, "i"));
Query nameq = new Query(new Criteria().andOperator(orNameCriteria,orCustomerRefCriteria,orAddress));
this query return zero size arraylist. I've then changed the orNameCriteria to use is clause and making sure the data contained in name variable has / as suffix and prefix. That didn't work as well.
but queries from mongoVue and RockMongo clients :
{ firstName: /SAM/}
returns data.
Question 1: How do you write LIKE CLAUSE with spring-data-mongo Criteria?
Question 2 : is that the right way to use or and and clause with criteria
Thanks for reading
Criteria.where("field").regex(pattern) should work
Since I don't have the ability add comments...
If you do a static import on Criteria, it will make your where clauses look a lot better.
Criteria orAddress = new Criteria().orOperator(where("addresses.city").is(null), where("addresses.city").regex(city, "i"));
I have a table AccountSecurity which is a many-to-many table that relates Account entities and Securities. When I write the query below it returns all Securities that satisfy the where clause. However each Security instance in the list no longer has the reference to the AccountSecurity it came from. So when I do list[0].AccountSecurity it is empty. Is there anyway to include that information? I know I can rewrite the query to return AccountSecurities instead and use .Include("Security") on that, but I wonder if it can be done another way.
var list = (from acctSec in base.context.AccountSecurities
where acctSec.AccountId == accountId
select acctSec.Security).ToList();
UPDATE
Of course if I do two queries the graph gets populated properly, there has to be a way to do this in one shot.
var securities = (from acctSec in base.context.AccountSecurities
where acctSec.AccountId == accountId
select acctSec.Security).ToList();
//this query populates the AccountSecurities references within Security instances returned by query above
var xref = (from acctSec in base.context.AccountSecurities
where acctSec.AccountId == accountId
select acctSec).ToList();
var list = (from sec in base.context.Securities
.Include("AccountSecurity")
where sec.AccountSecurities.Any(as => as.AccountId == accountId)
select sec).ToList();
Try this:
var list = (from acctSec in base.context.AccountSecurities.Include("Security")
where acctSec.AccountId == accountId
select acctSec).ToList();
Then simply use the Security property as needed, and since it's read at the same time AccountSecurities is (single SQL with join), it will be very efficient.
Using entity framework, I'm trying to get back a customer with order details but I want to filter out those Orders that are active.
Customer is our EntityObject which has a collection of Order EntityObjects. CustomerDetails is our ObjectContext.
The code below will attach all orders but I want to filter and only attach those that are active. (Order.active == true). How can I do this?
I know Include builds up a nested query statement (I can observe by using .ToTraceString().) I was hoping to attach a Where clause to this nested select statement or the Include.
Customer cust;
CustomerDetails custTable = new CustomerDetails();
cust = custTable.Customer
.Where("it.cust_id = " + id)
.Include("Order") // But we only want Order.active == true!!!
.ToList().First();
Untested, but might work?
var temp = custTable.Customer.Where("it.cust_id = " + id).Include("Order");
cust = (from t in temp
where t.Order.active == true
select t).ToList().First();
