The IOrganizationService interface exposes methods used to perform web service operations on system and custom tables and on the table definitions (metadata) for your environment.
Client applications
A couple of classes that you can use in your code when creating client applications implement the IOrganizationService interface:
| Class | Description |
|---|---|
| CrmServiceClient | This is the class you should use when creating .NET Framework client applications. |
| ServiceClient | This is the class you should use when creating .NET Framework or .NET Core client applications. |
Plug-ins
When you write plug-ins, there's also an object returned from the IOrganizationServiceFactory.CreateOrganizationService method that implements the IOrganizationService interface but isn't any of the types in the client classes described in the previous section.
IOrganizationService Methods
Each of the classes that implement the IOrganizationService interface might include additional properties and methods, but the IOrganizationService interface has just eight methods.
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| Associate | Link two table rows using a table relationship |
| Create | Create a table row. |
| Delete | Delete a table row |
| Disassociate | Remove the link between two table rows using a table relationship |
| Execute | Invoke an operation defined as a message by passing an instance of an OrganizationRequest or a class derived from it. |
| Retrieve | Retrieve an instance of a table row. |
| RetrieveMultiple | Retrieve a collection of table rows that match the criteria set in a query. |
| Update | Change the column values of a table row. |
Note
The Organization service exposes only the Execute method. The other methods in the IOrganizationService interface are simply wrappers around the Execute method. These other methods are provided for convenience. You can perform all operations using only the Execute method. More information: Use messages with the SDK for .NET
