public void QueueCreateProject(
    Guid jobUid,
    ProjectDataSet dataset,
    bool validateOnly
)

Parameters

  • validateOnly
    Type: System.Boolean
    If True, only validates the input data and does not perform the action.

Remarks

QueueCreateProject is an asynchronous method that sends a message to the Project Server Queuing Service.

Note

You cannot use the Project Server Interface (PSI) to create local custom fields in projects. However, the PSI does support editing local custom field values on tasks, resources, and assignments.

When creating a ProjectDataSet.TaskRow, you must specify TASK_DUR_FMT. Otherwise, later use of this project in Project Professional can result in unpredictable behavior, including possible data loss.

Any changes made to enterprise resource properties in ProjectDataSet.ProjectResourceRow will be lost the next time Project Professional refreshes the data from Project Server.

When you add a task to a ProjectDataSet, do not set the TASK_WBS property. The TASK_WBS property is read-only, although it is marked as read/write in the PSI. If you add a task with the TASK_WBS property set to a specified value, Project Professional ignores the value set from the PSI and assigns a value according to the task outline position when you open the project. To see the result in Project Professional, check the WBS code value on the Advanced tab of the Task Information dialog box.

When you add a project custom field to to ProjectDataSet.ProjectCustomFields table, do not set the value of the MD_PROP_ID property. Project Server automatically adds a value when it creates the project. The CreateProject4Department code example shows the data in the ProjectDataSet before and after the call to QueueCreateProject.

Project Server Permissions

Permission

Description

NewProject

Allows a user to create a new project. Global permission.

SaveProjectTemplate

Allows a user to create and save a project as an enterprise project template.

Examples

Example for WCF:   The CreateProject4Department example does the following:

  1. Builds a basic ProjectDataSet for one new project that has zero or more tasks, plus a row in the ProjectCustomFields table. The project is assigned to a specified department by using the Project Departments custom field that has a value in the Departments lookup table.

  2. After calling QueueCreateProject, waits for the project queue to finish, and then reads the ProjectDataSet back by using ReadProject.

  3. Saves the ProjectDataSet to XML files, before creating the project and after calling ReadProject. Shows that Project Server automatically creates the MD_PROP_ID field for the Project Departments custom field.

  4. Shows how to use the WCF FaultException, to display the error stack. Comments in the PopulateData method show how to create errors in the ProjectDataSet that trigger the System.ServiceModel.FaultException. For example output of the exception handler, see the Code Example for WCF section in Project Server Error Codes.

For information about using the code sample in a Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 project and creating an app.config file for configuration of the WCF endpoints, see Prerequisites for WCF-Based Code Samples.

The following command line runs the CreateProject4Department application to create a project with no tasks. The value for the department GUID (the CODE_VALUE property for the custom field) is hard-coded in the application.

CreateProject4Department -name "Proj Dept Test 2"
