How do I create a new AccountShare / OpportunityShare row via the API?

I have written an S-Control which switches Account owners to different owners. I would also like to be able to switch any manual shares for accounts and opportunities. I don't seem to be able to create new rows in either the AccountShare or OpportunityShare show because the RowCause field is readonly.

Is there a better way to switch manual AccountShares / OpportunityShares to a different user via the API?

You don't specify RowCause, because it is read only (it's determined by the system). Just provide the AccountId (or OpportunityId), CaseAccessLevel, OpportunityAccessLevel, AccountAccessLevel, ContactAccessLevel, and UserOrGroupId. All of the AccessLevel fields are defaulted to the appropriate level if you exclude them (the organization's current sharing levels).

Thanks for your reply. However, I am still having problems. When I try to insert a row into accountshare and include the ContactAccessLevel field, I get the following error message:

fields:ContactAccessLevel', message:'AccountShare: bad field names on insert/update call: ContactAccessLevel, statusCode:'INVALID_FIELD_FOR_INSERT_UPDATE',}

However, if I exclude this field I get the following error message:

fields:AccountAccessLevel, OpportunityAccessLevel, CaseAccessLevel, message:
:AccountAccessLevel,OpportunityAccessLevel,CaseAccesLevel(Account,Opportunity,Case Levels, Con Levels(All, Edit, None, Edit) are below organization levels(Read, None, None, ControlledByParent))', statusCode:'INVALID_ACCESS_LEVEL'),}

Here is the JavaScript code I am using in my S-Control:

var newAccountShare = new sforce.SObject("AccountShare");
newAccountShare.UserOrGroupId = randomUserId;
newAccountShare.AccountId = accountId;
newAccountShare.AccountAccessLevel = "All";
newAccountShare.OpportunityAccessLevel = "Edit";
newAccountShare.CaseAccessLevel = "Edit";
newAccountShare.ContactAccessLevel = "Edit";
var createResults = sforce.connection.create([newAccountShare]);

Hi,

 

Have you got any workaround / root cause for this problem? I am also getting same error and looking for workaround.

 

Thanks in advance.

It's working with value "manual"

 

 

CaseShare testcaseshare = new CaseShare(UserOrGroupId = curuserID,CaseId = testcase.id,CaseAccessLevel = 'manual');

Sorry, it isn't working at all. All my test where coverd, but when I tried it again, I got an error again :-(
Why isn't it working?
