Parameters
resUIDs
Type: []Array of resource GUIDs.
startDate
Type: System.DateTimeBeginning of the period.
endDate
Type: System.DateTimeEnd of the period.
timeScale
Type: System.Int16Desired scale of the TimephasedData table, in the TimeScaleClass.TimeScale enumeration.
includeProposedBookings
Type: System.BooleanInclude assignments for which the resource is only tentatively scheduled.
Return value
Type: System.Data.DataSet
Dataset with a table of dates and a table of timephased data.

Examples
The example uses the SvcResource namespace in the ProjectServerServices.dll proxy assembly. The ConfigClientEndpoints method uses an app.config file for setting the WCF binding, behavior, and endpoint. For information about creating a PSI proxy assembly and an app.config file, see Prerequisites for WCF-based code samples in Project 2013.
The ReadResourceAvailability method returns the dataset resourceDS. The contents of the dataset are written to ResourceAvailability.xml.A sample of the TimephasedData structure from the actual output is shown below:
Note
The ReadResourceAvailabilityForGrid method is similar to the ReadResourceAvailability method, except the ReadResourceAvailabilityForGrid method does not return the resource GUID or project GUID in the DataSet. ReadResourceAvailabilityForGrid is used only in Project Web App for displaying data in the JS Grid
