Sample: Insert or update a record using Upsert

This sample code shows how to insert or update records by using the UpsertRequest message.

How to run this sample

See How to run samples for information about how to run this sample.

What this sample does

The UpsertRequest message is intended to be used in a scenario where it contains data that is needed to update or insert a record.

How this sample works

In order to simulate the scenario described in What this sample does, the sample will do the following:

Setup

1. Checks for the current version of the org.
2. Import a managed solution (UpsertSample_1_0_0_0_managed.zip) that creates a sample_product table that has an alternate key named sample_productcode. Verify that the indexes to support the alternate key are active.

Demonstrate

1. The ProcessUpsert method processes data in the newsampleproduct.xml to represent new products and creates 13 new records.
2. The second time when the ProcessUpsert method is called, it processes data in updatedsampleproduct.xml to represent updates to products previously created.
3. The UpsertRequest method creates 6 updated records.

Clean up

Display an option to delete the managed solution created in the Setup. The deletion is optional in case you want to examine the entities and data created by the sample. You can manually delete the records to achieve the same result.
