public ProjectDataSet ReadProjectStatus(
Guid projGuid,
DataStoreEnum dataStore,
string projName,
int projType
)
Parameters
projGuid
Type: System.GuidThe GUID of the project. Default is Guid.Empty.
dataStore
Type: WebSvcProject.DataStoreEnumThe database in which the project data is located (Drafts, Published, or Archive). Defaults to PublishedStore.
projName
Type: System.StringThe name of the project. The default is String.Empty, to get all projects visible to the user.
projType
Type: System.Int32The type of project. Specify by using Project.ProjectType and cast to an int. The default is Project.
Return value
Type: WebSvcProject.ProjectDataSet
The status and permissions of the current user determines the list of projects that are visible. The ProjectDataSet schema contains only the Project table, with the following fields: PROJ_UID, PROJ_NAME, PROJ_TYPE, PROJ_CHECKOUTDATE, PROJ_SESSION_DESCRIPTION, WPROJ_LAST_PUB, PROJ_LAST_SAVED, CREATED_DATE, ENTERPRISE_PROJECT_TYPE_UID, ENTERPRISE_PROJECT_TYPE_NAME, and PROJ_WINPROJ_VERSION_NUMBER.
Remarks
Because it takes into account the user permissions, the ReadProjectStatus method is the preferred method for obtaining a list of projects. This method populates only certain fields in the Project table. To populate other fields in the Project table, the Task table, or other tables, use ReadProject with the GUID of the desired project.
The ReadProjectStatus method enables you to get a project by using the name. You must use the full name of the project. To get a project by name only, set projGuid to Guid.Empty, specify the dataStore, pass the project name in projName, and specify the project type. The example in CreateProjectFromTemplate uses the ReadProjectStatus method to retrieve the template.
Project Server Permissions
Permission |
Description |
|---|---|
Allows a user to view the Project Center in Project Web App. Global permission. |
|
Allows a user to open the specified project. Required only if they do not have ViewProjectCenter. Category permission. |
Examples
Example for WCF: The ReadMyProjects example does the following:
Gets the GUID of the current user.
Reads the list of all projects visible to the user, by using ReadProjectStatus.
Reads each project in the list, by using ReadProject.
If the project owner matches the current user:
Copies the project row to a ProjectDataSet that has the same schema created by ReadProjectStatus.
Copies the project row to a second ProjectDataSet that has the complete schema.
Adds selected task data in the project to the TaskDataTable.
Writes each output ProjectDataSet to an XML file, for comparison of the schemas.
For example output of the exception handler, see the Code Example for WCF section in Project Server 2013 error codes.
Tip
If there are a large number of projects to read, a query of the Reporting database can be more efficient. Alternately, a PSI extension can do all of the calls to ReadProjectStatus and ReadProject on the server, and return just the final ProjectDataSet.
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 in Project 2013.
