3
4Lead l = new Lead(company='ABC', lastname='Smith');

DmlOptions.AssignmentRuleHeader Properties

The following are properties for DmlOptions.AssignmentRuleHeader.

assignmentRuleID

Specifies the ID of a specific assignment rule to run for the case or lead. The assignment rule can be active or inactive.

Signature

public Id assignmentRuleID {get; set;}

Property Value

Type: ID

Usage

The ID can be retrieved by querying the AssignmentRule sObject. If specified, do not specify useDefaultRule.

If the value is not in the correct ID format (15-character or 18-character Salesforce ID), the call fails and an exception is returned.

For the Case sObject, the assignmentRuleID DML option can be set only from the API and is ignored when set from Apex. For example, you can set the assignmentRuleID for an active or inactive rule from the executeanonymous() API call, but not from the Developer Console. This doesn’t apply to leads—the assignmentRuleID DML option can be set for leads from both Apex and the API.

Note

useDefaultRule

If specified as true for a case or lead, the system uses the default (active) assignment rule for the case or lead. If specified, do not specify an assignmentRuleId.

Signature

public Boolean useDefaultRule {get; set;}

Property Value

Type: Boolean
