C#

This example will retrieve the number of resources in your installation.

Project

This example was tested with Visual Studio 2013. The project is a console application. You can download a VS2013 example project here.

Add Web Reference

You'll need to add a web reference to Projector's WSDL. You can do so by right-clicking References in the solution explorer and choosing Add Service Reference.

Enter the WSDL address https://secure.projectorpsa.com/OpsProjectorWebSvc/OpsProjectorSvc.asmx?wsdl and click Go.
Name the reference.

Add Using Reference

Using the name of your project and the name of your web service, add a using directive to the top of your program. In the example below, my project is OldWebServicesGetResourceCount. The service reference is called ProjectorWebServicesV1.

Code Example

Using the below code as a starting place, start using our web services.

Session Tickets

This example assumes that you can create a session ticket. To learn how to create session tickets see C Sharp Example. You must use the v2 web services to generate session tickets. They can be used by the v1 services going forward though.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.ServiceModel;
using OldWebServicesGetResourceCount.ProjectorWebServicesV1;
 
namespace OldWebServicesGetResourceCount
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Program program = new Program();
            Console.WriteLine("Projector console app running....\n");
            //create an instance of the Projector Service
            var svc = new OpsProjectorSvcSoapClient();
            var header = new OpsAuthenticationHeader
            {
                SessionTicket = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
                //you can log in using your credentials directly, but we strongly discourage this approach. You should generate session tickets to log in. Direct credentials are fine for some simple tests
                //AccountName = "yourAccountName",
                //EmailAddress = "yourEmailAddress",
                //Password = "yourPassword"
            };
            //Authenticate with server and ensure we have the correct Service URL
            var getWebServiceUrlRq = new GetWebServiceUrlRq();
            GetWebServiceUrlRs getWebServiceUrlRs = svc.GetWebServiceUrl(header, getWebServiceUrlRq);
            if (getWebServiceUrlRs.WebServiceUrl != null)
            {
                var newEndpoint = string.Format("{0}/OpsProjectorWebSvc/OpsProjectorSvc.asmx", getWebServiceUrlRs.WebServiceUrl);
                Console.WriteLine("Redirecting your endpoint to: \n" + newEndpoint + "\n");
                svc = new OpsProjectorSvcSoapClient(new BasicHttpsBinding(), new EndpointAddress(newEndpoint));
            }
            //Retrieve some data from the installation using Rq/Rs
            var exportResourcesRq = new ExportResourcesRq
            {
                Parameters = new ExportResourcesRequest
                {
                    OnlyCountRows = true
                }
            };
            ExportResourcesRs exportResourcesRs = svc.ExportResources(header, exportResourcesRq);
            int iResources = exportResourcesRs.Data.RowCount;
            Console.WriteLine("Your installation has " + iResources.ToString() + " active resources as of today.\n");
            Console.WriteLine("Press enter to quit");
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
