Dynamics 365 Check User has Send As Privilege programatically

By -

Business Requirement :- Many a times in our project we get the requirement to check if logged user has Send As privilege allowed in his personal setting programatically. We can use below code snippet to check the logged in user personal settings from plugin code.

public bool CheckUserSendAsPrivilege(IOrganizationService service, Guid userGuid)
        {
            try
            {
                if (userGuid != Guid.Empty)
                {
                    QueryExpression queryUserSettings = new QueryExpression(UserSettings.EntityLogicalName);
                    queryUserSettings.NoLock = true;
                    queryUserSettings.Criteria.AddCondition(UserSettings.systemuseridAttribute, ConditionOperator.Equal, userGuid);
                    queryUserSettings.ColumnSet = new ColumnSet(UserSettings.issendasallowedAttribute);
                    EntityCollection ecUserSettings = null;
                    ecUserSettings = service.RetrieveMultiple(queryUserSettings);
                    if (ecUserSettings != null && ecUserSettings.Entities.Count > 0)
                    {
                        UserSettings objUserSettings = (UserSettings)ecUserSettings[0];
                        if (objUserSettings != null && objUserSettings.Attributes.Contains(UserSettings.issendasallowedAttribute))
                        {
                            bool isSendAsAllowed = objUserSettings.GetAttributeValue<bool>(UserSettings.issendasallowedAttribute);
                            if (isSendAsAllowed == true)
                            {
                                return true;
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                throw ex;
            }
            return false;
        }

Make sure you pass IOrganizationService of system user/service account context from plugin. Personal settings of all users stored in usersettings entity in Dynamics 365.

Hope you will find this helpful!

Dynamics 365 Error #2 Object reference not set to an instance of an object

By -
As Microsoft Dynamics developer, We came across this error regularly in our day to day life.

However below are few things which can be looked at to fix this issue and save your time. Entity Attribute/Field does not contains data or the value is null. Say you are trying to get FirstName from Lead Entity attribute and splitting the value into two string based on some parameter. string[] strArray=objLead["firstname"].split(','); This particulat line of code will throw Object Reference error if FirstName is null.
