In this blog, we will look at how we can create email activity records and send them using Web API in D365 CE(CRM).

Implementation

Creating Email

  1.  Creating Email with resolved emails (To field of email is record in D365 CE).
function createEmail() {
    var data = {
        "description": "Email Created",   ///Email Body
        "regardingobjectid_account@odata.bind": "/accounts(1f859c58-ad46-eb11-a813-
         000d3a1badf5)",
        "subject": "Test Email Creation",
        "email_activity_parties": [
            {
                "partyid_systemuser@odata.bind": "/systemusers(b411b085-ea3c-eb11-
                  bf68-000d3a197c1d)",
                "participationtypemask": 1   ///From Email
            },
            {
                "partyid_account@odata.bind": "/accounts(1f859c58-ad46-eb11-a813- 
                 000d3a1badf5)",
                "participationtypemask": 2 ///To Email
            }
        ]
    };
    Xrm.WebApi.createRecord("email", data).then(
        function success(result) {
            console.log("Email created with ID: " + result.id);
            // perform operations on record creation
        },
        function (error) {
            console.log(error.message);
            // handle error conditions
        }
    );
}
  1.  Creating Email with unresolved emails (To field of email is not record in D365 CE).
function createEmail() {
    var data = {
        "description": "Email Created",   ///Email Body
        "regardingobjectid_account@odata.bind": "/accounts(1f859c58-ad46-eb11-a813-
         000d3a1badf5)",
        "subject": "Test Email Creation",
        "email_activity_parties": [
            {
                "partyid_systemuser@odata.bind": "/systemusers(b411b085-ea3c-eb11-
                  bf68-000d3a197c1d)",
                "participationtypemask": 1   ///From Email
            },
             {
                "addressused":"abc@gmail.com",
                 "participationtypemask" : 2 ///To Email
             }
        ]
    };
    Xrm.WebApi.createRecord("email", data).then(
        function success(result) {
            console.log("Email created with ID: " + result.id);
            // perform operations on record creation
        },
        function (error) {
            console.log(error.message);
            // handle error conditions
        }
    );
}
  1. Creating Email with multiple unresolved emails (To field of email is not record in D365 CE).
function createEmail() {
    var data = {
        "description": "Email Created",   ///Email Body
        "regardingobjectid_account@odata.bind": "/accounts(1f859c58-ad46-eb11-a813-
         000d3a1badf5)",
        "subject": "Update Your Phone Number",
        "email_activity_parties": [
            {
                "partyid_systemuser@odata.bind": "/systemusers(b411b085-ea3c-eb11-
                  bf68-000d3a197c1d)",
                "participationtypemask": 1   ///From Email
            },
              {
                "addressused":"abc@gmail.com",
                 "participationtypemask" : 2   ///To Email
             },
             {
                "addressused":"xyz@gmail.com",
                 "participationtypemask": 2  ///To Email
             }
        ]
    };
    Xrm.WebApi.createRecord("email", data).then(
        function success(result) {
            console.log("Email created with ID: " + result.id);
            // perform operations on record creation
        },
        function (error) {
            console.log(error.message);
            // handle error conditions
        }
    );
