Retrieving task information using the web service API

To retrieve task information using the web service API, perform the following steps:

1.	Include project files

•	Create a Microsoft .NET client assembly that consumes both the TaskManagerQueryService WSDL and the TaskManagerService WSDL. (See Referencing the .NET client assembly.)

•	Reference the Microsoft .NET client assembly. (See Referencing the .NET client assembly.)

2.	Create a TaskManagerQueryService and a TaskManager Client API object

•	Using the Microsoft .NET client assembly, create a TaskManagerQueryServiceService object by invoking its default constructor.

•	Set the TaskManagerQueryServiceService object’s Credentials data member with a System.Net.NetworkCredential value that specifies the user name and password value.

•	Using the Microsoft .NET client assembly, create a TaskManagerServiceService object by invoking its default constructor.

•	Set the TaskManagerServiceService object’s Credentials data member with a System.Net.NetworkCredential value that specifies the user name and password value.

3.	Specify search criteria

•	Create a TaskSearchFilter object by using its constructor.

•	Specify search criteria by assigning a value to an appropriate data member that belongs to the TaskSearchFilter object. For example, to specify the process on which a task is based, assign a string value that specifies the process name to the TaskSearchFilter object’s serviceName data member.

•	Assign the value true to the TaskSearchFilter object’s adminIgnoreAllAcls data member to enable all tasks to be returned (not just the user who is specified in the connection settings).

4.	Perform the search

Search for tasks by invoking the TaskManagerQueryServiceService object’s taskList method and passing the TaskFilter object. This method returns an array of Objects where each element is a TaskRow object that represents a task that conforms to the specified search criteria.

5.	Iterate through the returned tasks

•	Iterate through the Object array by creating a loop structure and for each element, cast the element value to a TaskRow instance.

•	Get the task identifier value by retrieving the value of the TaskRow object’s taskId data member.

•	Retrieve task information by invoking the TaskManager object’s getTaskInfo method and passing the task identifier value.
