Dynamics 365 for Sales Create Snap is a Write-type Snap that adds new records to MS Dynamics 365.

...

This Snap cannot create relationships using collection-valued navigation properties, such as contact_customer_accounts, because of current WebAPI limitations; however, it works correctly with single-valued navigation properties, such as primary contact id.

 Mapper Snap

Needs to have an upstream Snap that contains the mandatory fields for creating the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales object. Mapper Snap is a preferred upstream Snap as it populates the input schema for the selected MS Dynamics 365 Sales Object Type.

A document with the result set. If the creation is successful, then the output document contains the Guid of the created object.

Error

Error handling is a generic way to handle errors without losing data or failing the Snap execution. You can handle the errors that the Snap might encounter while running the Pipeline by choosing one of the following options from the When errors occur list under the Views tab. The available options are:

  • Stop Pipeline Execution: Stops the current pipeline execution when the Snap encounters an error.

  • Discard Error Data and Continue: Ignores the error, discards that record, and continues with the rest of the records.

  • Route Error Data to Error View: Routes the error data to an error view without stopping the Snap execution.

Field Name

Field Type

Description

Label*


Default Value: Dynamics 365 For Sales Delete
Example: Dynamics 365 For Sales Delete

String

Specify the name for the Snap. You can modify this to be more specific, especially if you have more than one of the same Snap in your Pipeline.

Object Type*

Default Value:account
Example: account

String/Expression

Specify the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales object type. For example, account.


Related Object Type


Default Value: N/A
Example: contact

String/Expression

Specify the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales object type of the object to which it must be related.


Related Object Relationship

Default Value: N/A
Example: primarycontactID

String/Expression

Specify the Relationship Schema between the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales object to be created with the related object.

This Snap cannot create relationships using collection-valued navigation properties, such as contact_customer_accounts, due to current WebAPI limitations; however, it works correctly with single-valued navigation properties, such as primarycontactid.

Related Object ID


Default Value: N/A
Example: fi3rn3tDHGJK

String/Expression

Specify the GUID of the related Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales object.


Batch Size


Default Value: 200
Example: 100

Integer/Expression

Specify the Number of records processed in each request. Batch size range is from 1 to 1000.

Batch processing results can contain both successful and unsuccessful results.  Successful results will be written to the output view.  Unsuccessful results, along with intuitive error information will be written to the error view; therefore, it is recommended to activate the error view within the Snap.  A single unsuccessful batch processing document will not halt the batch processing, unless there is a configuration problem; in this special case, the Snap would fail with intuitive error information.

Number of Retries

Default Value: 0
Example1

Integer

Specify the maximum number of attempts to be made to receive a response. The request is terminated if the attempts do not result in a response. 

Retry Intervals (seconds)


Default Value: 1
Example5

Integer

Specify the time interval between two successive retry requests. A retry happens only when the previous attempt resulted in an exception. 

When the Snap encounters 429 error, the response includes the retry-after with <number of seconds> in the header and the Snap automatically retriesafter the specified <number of seconds>.
