Updating existing activity with attachments - acumatica

Question

I need to update an attachment to an existing activity using Web API from my application to an existing case in Acumatica Partner's Portal.
I have already written a code to this but it is updating to first activity always instead of for the activity I am passing the noteid.
I am doing this by retrieving the noteid of the activity created and then sending the same noteid along with caseid to update an attachment.
Below is the code which is updating the existing activity with attachment, please suggest.
var origActivities = context1.Export
(
new SP203010WS.Command[]
{
new SP203010WS.Value
{
Value = currentAcumaticaCaseNo,
LinkedCommand = content.Case.CaseID
},
content.Activities.Type,
content.Activities.Summary,
new SP203010WS.Field
{
FieldName = "NoteID",
ObjectName = content.Activities.Summary.ObjectName
},
content.Activities.CreatedAt,
},
null, 0, false, false
);
Guid?[] origActivityNoteID = null;
DateTime?[] origActivityCreatedDate = null;
if (origActivities != null && origActivities.Count() > 0)
{
origActivityNoteID = new Guid?[origActivities.Count()];
origActivityCreatedDate = new DateTime?[origActivities.Count()];
int i = 0;
foreach (string[] activity in origActivities)
{
origActivityNoteID[i] = new Guid(activity[2].ToString());
origActivityCreatedDate[i] = Convert.ToDateTime(activity[3]);
i++;
}
}
*****Adding new activity*****
var newActivities = context.Export
(
new SP203010WS.Command[]
{
new SP203010WS.Value
{
Value = currentAcumaticaCaseNo,
LinkedCommand = content.Case.CaseID
},
content.Activities.Type,
content.Activities.Summary,
new SP203010WS.Field
{
FieldName = "NoteID",
ObjectName = content.Activities.Summary.ObjectName
},
content.Activities.CreatedAt,
},
null, 0, false, false
);
Guid? newActivityNoteID = null;
for (var i = 1; i <= newActivities.GetUpperBound(0); i++)
{
if(origActivityNoteID != null && origActivityCreatedDate != null)
{
if((Array.IndexOf<Guid?>(origActivityNoteID, new Guid(newActivities[i][2])) <= 0) &&
(Array.IndexOf<DateTime?>(origActivityCreatedDate, Convert.ToDateTime(newActivities[i][3])) <= 0))
{
newActivityNoteID = new Guid(newActivities[i][2]);
break;
}
}
}
*****getting a list of all attachments*****
foreach (FileInfo fi in fileInfo)
{
SP203010WS.Content[] content1 = context.Submit
(
new SP203010WS.Command[]
{
new SP203010WS.Value
{
//Value = actiPartner.AcumaticaCaseID,
Value = currentAcumaticaCaseNo,
LinkedCommand = CR306000.Case.CaseID
},
new SP203010WS.Value
{
Value = newActivityNoteID.ToString(),
LinkedCommand = new SP203010WS.Field { FieldName="NoteID", ObjectName="Activities" }
},
new SP203010WS.Value
{
FieldName = fi.Name,
Value = Convert.ToBase64String(fi.BinData),
LinkedCommand = CR306000.Activities.ServiceCommands.Attachment
},
CR306000.Actions.Save
}
);
}

Looks like search in Screen-Based API has no support for GUIDs. You will have to locate necessary Attachment by other fields values, for instance: Type, Summary and CreatedAt:
Screen context = new Screen();
context.CookieContainer = new System.Net.CookieContainer();
context.Url = "http://localhost/ActivityAttachments/Soap/CR306000.asmx";
context.Login("admin", "123");
var content = context.GetSchema();
var newActivities = context.Export
(
new Command[]
{
new Value
{
Value = "000110",
LinkedCommand = content.CaseSummary.CaseID
},
content.Activities.Type,
content.Activities.Summary,
content.Activities.CreatedAt,
},
null, 0, false, false
);
byte[] filedata;
using (FileStream file = File.Open("EP507011.txt", FileMode.Open))
{
filedata = new byte[file.Length];
file.Read(filedata, 0, filedata.Length);
}
Content[] content1 = context.Submit
(
new Command[]
{
new Value
{
Value = "000110",
LinkedCommand = content.CaseSummary.CaseID
},
new Key
{
ObjectName = content.Activities.Type.ObjectName,
FieldName = content.Activities.Type.FieldName,
Value = string.Format("='{0}'", newActivities[newActivities.Length - 2][0])
},
new Key
{
ObjectName = content.Activities.Summary.ObjectName,
FieldName = content.Activities.Summary.FieldName,
Value = string.Format("='{0}'", newActivities[newActivities.Length - 2][1])
},
new Key
{
ObjectName = content.Activities.CreatedAt.ObjectName,
FieldName = content.Activities.CreatedAt.FieldName,
Value = newActivities[newActivities.Length - 2][2]
},
new Value
{
FieldName = "EP507011.txt",
Value = Convert.ToBase64String(filedata),
LinkedCommand = content.Activities.ServiceCommands.Attachment
},
content.Actions.Save
}
);
