Project Server 2013 class library and web service reference

Applies to: Project Server 2013

The class library and web service reference for Microsoft Project Server 2013 includes the public namespaces that are usable by third-party developers.

Web service namespaces have arbitrary names. For example, when you develop with the Project Server Interface (PSI) and create a reference to the Admin.svc service—or the Admin.asmx web service—you choose a namespace name for programmatic use such as WebSvcAdmin. Except for code samples, web service namespaces in the Project 2013 SDK are indicated in brackets, for example [Admin web service]. For a more detailed description of documented assemblies, namespaces, and web services of the PSI, see Project 2013 PSI reference overview.

The primary class in each web service includes the web methods that provide the functionality of that web service. Many of the web methods use or return DataSet objects that are defined by DataSet, DataTable, and DataRow classes in the same web service.

For developing applications that can have remote access to an online Project Web App installation, use the Microsoft.ProjectServer.Client namespace. The client-side object model (CSOM) can be used independently of the PSI services and other Project Server assemblies, for both Project Online and Project Server on-premises.
