Sharepoint 2013 - Taxonomy- Microsoft.SharePoint.Taxonomy.TaxonomySession.GetTaxonomySession” - sharepoint-2013

I am updating manage meta data field using C#.
Following is code to get TermId for term.
string termId = string.Empty;
try
{
TaxonomySession tSession = TaxonomySession.GetTaxonomySession(CC);
TermStore termStore = taxonomySession.GetDefaultSiteCollectionTermStore();
TermSet tset = ts.GetTermSet(termSetId); // I have proper Guid here, checked this in SharePoint 2013 server.
LabelMatchInformation lmi = new LabelMatchInformation(CC);
lmi.Lcid = 1033;
lmi.TrimUnavailable = true;
lmi.TermLabel = "xyz"; //Name of the term.
TermCollection termMatches = tset.GetTerms(lmi);
CC.Load(tSession);
CC.Load(ts);
CC.Load(tset);
CC.Load(termMatches);
CC.ExecuteQuery();
if (termMatches != null && termMatches.Count() > 0)
termId = termMatches.First().Id.ToString();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
var d = ex.Message;
}
return termId;
}
But I am getting exception as:
“Cannot invoke method or retrieve property from null object. Object returned by the following call stack is null. \"GetDefaultSiteCollectionTermStore\r\nMicrosoft.SharePoint.Taxonomy.TaxonomySession.GetTaxonomySession”.
I have tried to load manually from Sharepoint2013, it works fine there.
Is there anything missing ?
Thanks for help..

Go to the Managed Metadata service (in Service Applications in central admin).
Select Managed Metadata Service Proxy (try clicking the empty space around the text rather than the text itself), and click Properties.
Set that the application is default storage for keywords and for termsets.

Google Actions SDK "Error: Unauthorized, Your client does not have permission to the requested URL" caused by use of conv.user.storage

I'm trying to convert an existing Alexa app to Google Actions wherein I need to implement session and persistent data values. My understanding from https://developers.google.com/assistant/conversational/df-asdk/save-data is that conv.data and conv.user.storage are intended for this purpose. However, making any attempt to assign values to either results in the error "Error: Unauthorized, Your client does not have permission to the requested URL", and also a reference to the offending key which points to this in the firebase console log: https://us-central1-hello-world-e37ec.cloudfunctions.net/cf-p7ROQlBMjQId9Cws6XdJBA-name. Similar issues here in stackoverflow seem to indicate that I need to grant the appropriate function to all users, but I don't know which function is being called. I'm new to Google Actions, so apologies if I'm overlooking something obvious. Code is very similar to the example offered on google's doc.
const {conversation} = require('#assistant/conversation');
const functions = require('firebase-functions');
const app = conversation();
...
app.handle('status', async conv => {
conv.overwrite = false;
if (conv.user.verificationStatus === 'VERIFIED') {
conv.user.storage = {};
conv.user.storage.sum = 69;
conv.add(`Alright, I'll store that for next time. See you then.`);
} else {
conv.add(`I can't save that right now, but we can add ` +
`new numbers next time!`);
}
});
I found the answer for this issue. Appears that I was not in the correct area of documentation for the "conversation" object/app. Correct method is described here: https://developers.google.com/assistant/conversational/webhooks#read_and_write_storage.
Using my example
app.handle('status', async conv => {
conv.overwrite = false;
if (conv.user.verificationStatus === 'VERIFIED') {
conv.session.params.sum = 69; //within session
conv.user.params.sum = 100; //across sessions
conv.add(`Alright, I'll store that for next time. See you then.`);
} else {
conv.add(`I can't save that right now, but we can add ` +
`new numbers next time!`);
}
});

Salesforce APEX Unit Test Error with REST Services / Error at SELECT of Case Object

I've succeeded to successfully construct a REST API using APEX language defined with an annotation: #RestResource.
I also wrote a matching Unit test procedure with #isTest annotation. The execution of the REST API triggered by a HTTP GET with two input parameters works well, while the Unit Test execution, returns a "null" value list resulting from the SOQL query shown below:
String mycase = inputs_case_number; // for ex. '00001026'
sObject[] sl2 = [SELECT Id, CaseNumber FROM Case WHERE CaseNumber = :mycase LIMIT 1];
The query returns:
VARIABLE_ASSIGNMENT [22]|sl2|[]|0x1ffefea6
I've also tried to execute it with a RunAs() method (see code below), using a dynamically created Salesforce test user, not anonymous, connected to a more powerful profile, but still receiving a "null" answer at the SOQL query. The new profile defines "View All" permission for Cases. Other SOQL queries to objects like: "User" and "UserRecordAccess" with very similar construction are working fine, both for REST APEX and Test APEX.
Is there a way to configure an access permission for Unit test (#isTest) to read the Case object and a few fields like: Id and CaseNumber. Is this error related to the "Tooling API" function and how can we fix this issue in the test procedure?
Code attachment: Unit Test Code
#isTest
private class MyRestResource1Test {
static testMethod void MyRestRequest() {
// generate temporary test user object and assign to running process
String uniqueUserName = 'standarduser' + DateTime.now().getTime() + '#testorg.com';
Profile p = [SELECT Id FROM Profile WHERE Name='StandardTestUser'];
User pu = new User(Alias='standt',Email='standarduser#testorg.com',LastName='testing',EmailEncodingKey='UTF-8',LanguageLocaleKey='en_US',LocaleSidKey='en_US',ProfileId=p.Id,TimeZoneSidKey='America/New_York',UserName=uniqueUserName);
System.RunAs(pu) {
RestRequest req = new RestRequest();
RestResponse res = new RestResponse();
req.requestURI = '/services/apexrest/sfcheckap/';
req.addParameter('useremail','testuserid#red.com');
req.addParameter('casenumber','00001026');
req.httpMethod = 'GET';
RestContext.request = req;
RestContext.response = res;
System.debug('Current User assigned is: ' + UserInfo.getUserName());
System.debug('Current Profile assigned is: ' + UserInfo.getProfileId());
Test.startTest();
Map<String, Boolean> resultMap = MyRestResource1.doGet();
Test.stopTest();
Boolean debugflag = resultMap.get('accessPermission');
String debugflagstr = String.valueOf(debugflag);
System.assert(debugflagstr.contains('true'));
}
}
}
Found a solution path by using: #isTest(SeeAllData=true)
See article: "Using the isTest(SeeAllData=true) Annotation"

Rally Web Services API: How do I get the URL link of the user story? (getDetailUrl() method)

Please be patient and Do Not flag this as duplicate: Using the Rally REST API, how can I get the non-API (website) URL for a user story?
I want to be able to generate a link for the user story.
Something like this: https://rally1.rallydev.com/#/-/detail/userstory/*********
As opposed to this: https://rally1.rallydev.com/slm/webservice/v2.0/hierarchicalrequirement/88502329352
The link will be integrated into another application for the managers to see the user story.
I did read about the getDetailUrl() method, but in my case I am creating the user stories by parsing email and linking that to a notification service in Slack.
I am aware of the formattedID and (_ref), but I would have to query for it again, and I am creating batches of userstories through a loop. I need the actual web site link to the user story.
Here is my sample code:
public void CreateUserStory(string workspace, string project, string userstoryName){
//authenticate with Rally
this.EnsureRallyIsAuthenticated();
//DynamicJsonObject for HierarchicalRequirement
DynamicJsonObject toCreate = new DynamicJsonObject();
toCreate[RallyConstant.WorkSpace] = workspace;
toCreate[RallyConstant.Project] = project;
toCreate[RallyConstant.Name] = userstoryName;
try
{
//Create the User Story Here
CreateResult createUserStory = _api.Create(RallyConstant.HierarchicalRequirement, toCreate);
Console.WriteLine("Created Userstory: " + "URL LINK GOES HERE");
}
catch (WebException e)
{
Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
}
}
We don't have a method in the .NET toolkit for doing this, but it's easy to create.
The format is this:
https://rally1.rallydev.com/#/detail/<type>/<objectid>
Just fill in the type (hierarchicalrequirement turns into userstory, but all the others are the same as the wsapi type) and the objectid from the object you just created.
var parameters = new NameValueCollection();
parameters["fetch"] = "FormattedID";
var toCreate = new DynamicJsonObject();
var createResult = restApi.create("hierarchicalrequirement", toCreate, parameters);
var type = Ref.getTypeFromRef(createResult.Reference);
var objectID = Ref.getOidFromRef(createResult.Reference);
var formattedID = createResult.Object["FormattedID"];
And you can specify fetch fields to be returned on the created object so you don't have to re-query for it.

Why does WebSharingAppDemo-CEProviderEndToEnd sample still need a client db connection after scope creation to perform sync

I'm researching a way to build an n-tierd sync solution. From the WebSharingAppDemo-CEProviderEndToEnd sample it seems almost feasable however for some reason, the app will only sync if the client has a live SQL db connection. Can some one explain what I'm missing and how to sync without exposing SQL to the internet?
The problem I'm experiencing is that when I provide a Relational sync provider that has an open SQL connection from the client, then it works fine but when I provide a Relational sync provider that has a closed but configured connection string, as in the example, I get an error from the WCF stating that the server did not receive the batch file. So what am I doing wrong?
SqlConnectionStringBuilder builder = new SqlConnectionStringBuilder();
builder.DataSource = hostName;
builder.IntegratedSecurity = true;
builder.InitialCatalog = "mydbname";
builder.ConnectTimeout = 1;
provider.Connection = new SqlConnection(builder.ToString());
// provider.Connection.Open(); **** un-commenting this causes the code to work**
//create anew scope description and add the appropriate tables to this scope
DbSyncScopeDescription scopeDesc = new DbSyncScopeDescription(SyncUtils.ScopeName);
//class to be used to provision the scope defined above
SqlSyncScopeProvisioning serverConfig = new SqlSyncScopeProvisioning();
....
The error I get occurs in this part of the WCF code:
public SyncSessionStatistics ApplyChanges(ConflictResolutionPolicy resolutionPolicy, ChangeBatch sourceChanges, object changeData)
{
Log("ProcessChangeBatch: {0}", this.peerProvider.Connection.ConnectionString);
DbSyncContext dataRetriever = changeData as DbSyncContext;
if (dataRetriever != null && dataRetriever.IsDataBatched)
{
string remotePeerId = dataRetriever.MadeWithKnowledge.ReplicaId.ToString();
//Data is batched. The client should have uploaded this file to us prior to calling ApplyChanges.
//So look for it.
//The Id would be the DbSyncContext.BatchFileName which is just the batch file name without the complete path
string localBatchFileName = null;
if (!this.batchIdToFileMapper.TryGetValue(dataRetriever.BatchFileName, out localBatchFileName))
{
//Service has not received this file. Throw exception
throw new FaultException<WebSyncFaultException>(new WebSyncFaultException("No batch file uploaded for id " + dataRetriever.BatchFileName, null));
}
dataRetriever.BatchFileName = localBatchFileName;
}
Any ideas?
For the Batch file not available issue, remove the IsOneWay=true setting from IRelationalSyncContract.UploadBatchFile. When the Batch file size is big, ApplyChanges will be called even before fully completing the previous UploadBatchfile.
// Replace
[OperationContract(IsOneWay = true)]
// with
[OperationContract]
void UploadBatchFile(string batchFileid, byte[] batchFile, string remotePeer1
I suppose it's simply a stupid example. It exposes "some" technique but assumes you have to arrange it in proper order by yourself.

Resolving incidents (closing cases) in CRM4 through webservices?

I'm trying to resolve/close Dynamics CRM4 cases/incidents through webservices.
A single SetStateIncidentRequest is not enough and returns a Server was unable to process request error message. I think it has something to do with active workflows that trigger on case's attribute changes. I don't know if there's anything else preventing the request to work.
Since it is possible to close those cases through the GUI, I guess there's a "correct" set of steps to follow in order to achieve it through CrmService; unfortunately, I've been googleing it for a while without finding what I want. Could anybody help me, please?
To resolve a case in CRM (in VB.NET), I do the following:
Try
Dim activity As New incidentresolution
Dim closeRequest As New CloseIncidentRequest
Dim closeResponse As New CloseIncidentResponse
Dim strErrors As String = String.Empty()
activity.incidentid = New Lookup
activity.incidentid.type = EntityName.incident.ToString
activity.incidentid.Value = //[GUID OF INCIDENT]
activity.ownerid = New Owner
activity.ownerid.type = EntityName.systemuser.ToString
activity.ownerid.Value = //[GUID OF USER PERFORMING ACTION]
activity.statecode = New IncidentResolutionStateInfo
activity.statecode.Value = 1 //Resolved
activity.statuscode = New Status
activity.statuscode.Value = 5 //Problem Solved
closeRequest.IncidentResolution = activity
closeRequest.Status = 5 //Problem Solved
// IF REQUIRED:
activity.timespent = New CrmNumber
activity.timespent.Value = //[INTEGER REPRESENTING No. OF MIN SPENT ON CASE]
closeResponse = objCrm.Execute(closeRequest)
Catch ex As System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException
Dim root As XmlElement = ex.Detail
strErrors = strErrors & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & root.ChildNodes(0).ChildNodes(3).InnerText
Return False
End Try
Here's a tip - catch the SoapException and examine the Detail.OuterXML property and you will get a more detailed error message. It's possible you're not building your request correctly.
Indeed, I didn't know that there exists a CloseIncidentRequest class to use with the CrmService.Execute() method. Most probably the SetStateIncidentRequeset won't work because it's expected that incident resolutions are created that way. Pity that names for classes and actions aren't used consistently (case/incident, resolution/closing)...
